The Spirit Of Southern Living Is Alive In Carson Valley, NV

Luxury Home Magazine of Lake Tahoe and Greater Reno showcases the heartland of the West. The spirit of Southern living is alive and well in this plantation style home in the heart of the Carson Valley. Elegant by design, the 5,992 square foot estate boasts distinguished white columns that frame the entrance and generously sized veranda that beckons all to enjoy an afternoon of front porch sitting. Anything but discreet, the foyer exudes an air of sophistication with a sweeping staircase and rich, mahogany floors that lead into a dramatic parlor room with a 10 foot ceiling, welcoming fireplace, custom crown molding and detailed trim around Pella Architecture windows. Graceful arched doorways transition one into the twelve different rooms, with one being a formal dining room off of the foyer that has richly appointed wainscoting and chandelier. With a hint of nostalgia, the transom above the doorway that leads from the gourmet kitchen into the dining room was part of a door from an old home in Nebraska circa the early 1900s. More attention to detail is evident in Italian metal tiles placed in areas of flooring and a delicate hand painted variety in a travertine shower. Other custom features include marble floors and countertops, slab granite, 3 foot wide doorways with solid doors, high grade carpeting and a handicap shower in the downstairs guest bathroom.

Reminiscent of a true Southern horse farm, the 2005-built estate is ideally set up as one of the finest equestrian facilities in the valley. Situated on 21 acres and completely fenced and cross-fenced for individual pastures, the equine area consists of an 8 stall, 2,560 square foot barn with 12X12 stalls and a 16-foot breezeway with tack room and wash rack. A 10,000 square foot indoor arena is attached to the barn with an adjacent outdoor showground.

Either at sunrise or sunset, the views of the majestic Sierra Nevada and Job’s Peak never ceases to take one’s breath away. With horses grazing on lush pastureland and the quiet serenity that abounds, this special home represents the heartland of the West that will transcend generations.
