David Gemme Of Sierra Sotheby’s International Realty Sells $7.75 Million Tahoe City Estate

Luxury, lakefront specialist, David Gemme with Gemme Group at Sierra Sotheby’s International Realty successfully navigated the sale of 2900 Polaris Road in Tahoe City, CA. Commonly referred to as “ The Bear Paw Lodge,” this estate sits on 30 beautiful acres, backing to Burton State Park and garnered the sales price of $7.75 million.

“This was such a special transaction to be a part of,” Gemme said. “I was able to work with the buyer and seller (who are both Military Veterans) on achieving their lifelong goal of owning a property to be used as a reintegration facility to help Navy SEALs and other service Veterans have a haven to rest and relax while looking for job placement in the work sector. It was truly an honor to be part of this amazing next step my clients lives.”

Boasting one of the most amazing views in Tahoe City, the 6-bedroom, 5-bedroom and 5-partial home is made for entertaining. The commercial kitchen is sure to be enjoyed and flows seamlessly to the grand living room.

Rustic and elegant, the home features stunning wood and stonework in every room. Gather around the floor-to-ceiling fireplace and share stories of your day’s adventures in cozy seating for 10. If you are seeking a livelier atmosphere, enter the fun family room appointed with a pool table, shuffleboard and 82” TV. The large back deck overlooks the lake and snowcapped mountains and is meant to be enjoyed all year long.

The most unique and perhaps exciting part of this transaction is the inclusion of a gorgeous 40-ft Sea Ray Yacht and 3-year lease at the highly sought-after Tahoe City Marina.

Commonly referred to as the best shore in Lake Tahoe, the North Shore boasts an abundance of restaurants, shopping and outdoor recreation. Whether you are skiing at Squaw Valley in the winter or hitting the sandy shores of Carnelian Bay in the Summer, there is never a dull day in Tahoe City.
