Description

Camp Juniper, an awe-inspiring 40-acre wilderness retreat, is nestled amidst nature's beauty with a mountain trout creek running through. The property features meandering trails, granting easy access to Juniper Creek, fields of wildflowers, and breathtaking vista points. Furthermore, you can conveniently connect to the Tahoe Rim Trail, Mt. Rose Wilderness, and Martis Peak from this idyllic location. As winter arrives, backcountry enthusiasts can revel in ski-touring adventures on Martis Peak, right from the doorstep of the house. Camp Juniper offers a host of outdoor activities to enrich your lifestyle in extraordinary ways. The cabin was thoughtfully constructed in 2008, offering approximately 2,000 square feet of living space with three bedrooms, two baths, a loft area, and a generously-sized bonus room. The bonus room provides versatility and could be used as a family room, music studio, fourth bedroom, or artist's sanctuary. The bonus room opens to a large paver patio that overlooks the serene meadow leading down to Juniper Creek, providing a perfect setting to immerse in the beauty of the wild Sierra. In addition to the covered porch, the cabin boasts a large back deck, creating an ideal space for entertaining guests while observing the vibrant birdlife and wildlife. The practical amenities continue with a detached two-car garage and a greenhouse, fulfilling both functional and recreational needs. Conscious of sustainable practices and energy efficiency, the owners used Structural Insulated Panels (SIPS) during construction, ensuring top-notch insulation and structural integrity. The outcome is a solid and super-insulated house that maintains a cool temperature even on hot days and effectively retains heat during cold winters. The exterior siding is crafted from fire-resistant cementitious Hardy product, requiring minimal maintenance, while the composite decking demands little to no upkeep. The comfort of the residents is ensured by a high-efficiency in-floor hydronic heating system that keeps the cabin consistently cozy, even in the coldest months. Despite being merely 13 miles away from downtown Truckee, Camp Juniper provides a sense of ultimate seclusion and serenity, granting you the highest level of privacy. With fragrances of sage and wildflowers permeating the air and the gentle melody of Juniper Creek flowing nearby, Camp Juniper serves as a transcendent space to unwind, rejuvenate, and reconnect with your soul, offering a truly exceptional retreat from the rigors of daily life.
