Home Run Mountainside Townhomes Grand Opening a Success!

Saturday, August 11 was a gorgeous day and the palette was set for a fabulous Farm to Table themed feast in the cul de sac of Northstar's newest Mountainside neighborhood, Home Run.  The clouds which had been forming every afternoon and blasting us with rain never came, and the heat, so pervasive in Martis Valley, never made it up to our 6,600 foot perch.  The evening was balmy and beautiful, and over 150 guests enjoyed delicious farm-fresh food, tours of our open homes, live music and demonstrations from various sports reps, including golf professionals, fly-fishermen, and a Stand Up Paddle board representative from Doyle boards.  While our model unit, a beautiful 3 bedroom 3 bath home facing the Home Run skiway, was decked out in comfortable and homey furnishings, fresh vegetables, sushi and a bar, the other units were open for guests to walk through and note the distinctions in finishes, lay-out and views.  Attendees were pleasantly surprised with the Martis Valley/lake views and privacy that many of the homes afforded, and of course, all could not deny the immediate satisfaction of ski in-ski out access from each and every home.  Details such as outdoor lockers, covered porches, open kitchens and mud-room closets were noted and appreciated.  It was a fun evening to be a part of, and positive vibrations prevailed.  Opening the neighborhood to a "block party" atmosphere helped our guests envision what the community could be like once fully fleshed out with owners, especially in the summertime.  It was undeniably a success, and a great party for our first owner-occupants, owners of unit #5, to start their Home Run memories with!

The Glades at Northstar California

The Truckee/Lake Tahoe area has seen some interesting times over the last 12 months. While opposing and resisting truths and ideas in our area dual it out, occasionally there comes a time when I feel the need to lighten the load, share some positive news, and introduce new concepts. The latest concept comes from local developer East West Partners in a new on-mountain community called The Glades, located at Northstar California. The concept is not new; in fact, EWP just mimicked what worked so well in Bachelor Gulch, and developed a smaller scale product within the Northstar ski resort. What results is an entirely unique neighborhood within the Lake Tahoe region, and dare I say, within California: 25 ski in/ski out homesites are cleverly integrated into the ski resort, and developers were thoughtful with the design of 3 ski back trail access, all culminating in the lift lines of the Timberline lift. These homesites have a variety of attributes, from mountain views to premium ski run visibility and access, and our visionaries (local architects who have spent many days examining the sites and designing homes which may fit) have generously shared their ideas for different home styles and designs for each lot. The site has to be seen to appreciate. Contact me for more information and to schedule a personal tour of The Glades at Northstar California!
