Set in a quiet neighborhood in Tahoe Donner, this vacation home is quintessential “mountain modern".
Fernwood Folly features environmentally friendly materials and technology such as COR-TEN steel, ledge stone, redwood, and cement fiber panels. Modern sensibilities and the clean lines of a more contemporary design are often labeled as cold and impersonal, but the homeowner’s furnishings definitely round out the space in a warm and comfortable spirit.
With only bears as the occasional gawkers, privacy is not so much of a concern. The tranquil views are breathtaking. Floor-to-ceiling windows bring the outdoors in so that you can enjoy the open space from the comfort of the gourmet kitchen, living room, or Primary bedroom suite. But why stay inside, when there is plenty to welcome you out? A full outdoor living room and dining area is situated to take full advantage of the forested setting and on the second-floor deck, a hot tub awaits to enjoy a cool evening soak.
