Eagle's Nest at Northstar
Truckee
The Eagle's Nest is an upscale, professionally decorated Big Springs home with 5 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms and a private outdoor hot tub. Ideal for a gathering of friends and family, with soaring cathedral ceilings throughout, a giant wood-burning fireplace fashioned from huge granite stones, a baby grand piano, a pool table and light streaming in through abundant windows. You will be greeted by beautiful slate floors, original oil paintings, wool rugs and fine leather furniture in the common areas. Enjoy the silence and comfort of hydronic radiant heating throughout, plus high speed cable internet wi-fi. If you're visiting in the summer, you'll enjoy the central air conditioning, a very rare feature in this region. Tahoe and Alpine artwork complement the mountain style architecture.
The chef’s kitchen features granite countertops, a Viking 6-burner cooktop, stainless steel fridge, freezer, microwave oven, Dakor conventional oven and convection oven and dual sinks. Three coffee makers help you get just what you want in the morning: Keurig maker, traditional Cuisinart coffee maker, and a Nespresso machine. The great room has a 65" 4k UHD TV with theater sound. Elsewhere on the main floor, a billiards table is accompanied by a wet bar. The dining room table seats 12 and the breakfast bar seats an additional six. The garage has room for two cars and a 240V receptacle for your electric vehicle.
Bedrooms each have their own private bathroom ensuite and feature European goose down pillows, top quality mattresses, high thread count bedding, bathrobes and Turkish cotton towels to make you comfortable. The primary suite features a king bed, gas fireplace, balcony, jetted spa tub and standing shower. The 2nd bedroom features a queen bed and private bathroom. The 3rd bedroom has a king bed and private bathroom. The 4th bedroom has three bunk beds (to sleep 6) plus a bathroom. The 5th bedroom has a queen bed and private bathroom with blackout shades on all windows. The upstairs common area has a queen sized sleeper sofa that is remarkably comfortable and firm and 89" in length - not your usual flimsy, terrible fold out couch where your feet hang off the end. Three bathrooms have hair dryers.
Situated on half of an acre on a private cul-de-sac in the prestigious Big Springs neighborhood above the Village, Eagle's Nest is a 10-minute walk (or a one minute drive) to the Timberline chair lift. The property features a grass backyard and natural forest and backs up to the Tompkins Memorial hiking trail. The Northstar shuttle service will pick up your group at the end of the driveway (simply request on the app and the shuttle usually arrives within minutes) and take you to the Village or recreation center. The recreation center, available to guests for a fee, offers multiple swimming pools, a huge hot tub, a gym and, in the summer, tennis courts. The Northstar Village offers several great restaurants and bars, an ice-skating / roller-skating rink, a movie theater and plenty of shopping. From The Eagle's Nest, you may walk / hike down to the Village in less than ten minutes on hiking paths and a natural stone stairway maintained by Northstar.
