Lake Tahoe is home to many fine and exquisite water front properties, but few among them include a luxurious and custom home situated on a 2.8 acre parcel, walkable to the nearby shops and restaurants of downtown Tahoe City. The offering includes a guest house, private pier with boat lift and two buoys, as well as a stunning pool and cabana overlooking the Lake. Welcome home to Cedar Shores, one of Lake Tahoe’s most unique acreage lakefront properties, with heritage old growth trees dotting the landscape of this private resort-like setting on Tahoe’s historic West Shore.   Enter through stone pillars and a wrought iron gate. The property is gated and fenced for privacy and solitude. The extended circular driveway meanders past the Guest House, through beautiful landscaping to the Main Home, with attached two-car, and detached three-car garage. Down a meandering path surrounded by lush verdant foliage, the swimming pool and pool house greet with excitement for hours of fun and play. Steps lead to the Lake, with over 150 feet of lake frontage, a sandy beach and dock facilities. Originally known as the Topol Family Compound, in recognition of one of Lake Tahoe’s prominent families of this century, the main house, built in 2007, enjoys four light and bright en-suite bedrooms in the main home, a media room with bonus play space, a comfortable and alluring library for late-night conversation, a laundry/mud room, with a full bathroom adjacent, for those sandy feet fresh from the Lake. The front entry welcomes with grandeur and comfortable elegance. Lush foliage surrounds the home, framed by towering Cedars standing tall and proud, emblems of days gone by. French doors open to the Great Room, with Lake Tahoe inviting from beyond, its wall of windows and 20 foot ceilings soar above, the room thoughtfully designed to offer an elegant yet inviting space within which to entertain and relax. The Owner’s Suite on the main level in a separate wing of the home, offers a private retreat with French doors opening to the patio, and outdoor spa. Separate walk in closets and a spa-like luxurious bathroom complete with oversized jetted tub and tiled stone shower. The kitchen, perfectly positioned in the south wing, with French doors to the outdoor patio and BBQ area is appointed with Professional-grade Viking 8-Burner gas range, with griddle, double-oven and Sub Zero refrigeration with freezer drawers. The finely finished cabinets, and kitchen island overlooking the Lake and Dining Area embodies the amalgamation of function and design.   The kitchen is where family and friends gather and this home was designed to embrace that enjoyment of life and memories at Lake Tahoe. The kitchen enjoys a Formal Dining experience, yet comfortable enough for casual dining with its rustic elegant setting, at the kitchen island, or al fresco on the patio. An informal sitting area with gas fireplace offers a cozy setting to watch the sun rise in the early morning; a place where those of every age in the family can come to and relax as meals are prepared and enjoyed.   The Guest House was preserved from the original estate, tastefully updated with a nod to its eclectic roots, comprised of two guest bedrooms and an en-suite Primary Suite. The hearth of the fireplace is made from Agate Rock, quarried from Agate Bay on the North Shore of Lake Tahoe many decades ago. The Pool Cabana is a light and bright space, with bathroom and shower. The pool enjoys a Cabo shelf, an expansive patio with marble pavers, the pool varying from 3.5' to 10' deep for countless hours of cannonball, swim and play.  Cedar Shores, situated on nearly three acres with 150' of private lake frontage, with ownership to the low water line of Lake Tahoe, enjoys a unique setting on the shores of Lake Tahoe. The property offers a total of 7 bedrooms, 9.5 Bathrooms, plus a Study, Media Room, 5-Car Garage, full kitchen in the Guest House and the Lakeside Pool House.
