The rarest properties in the market: homes and estates sitting directly on Lake Tahoe’s shoreline, with private piers, buoys, or boat access. Values here are driven almost entirely by frontage, water depth, pier size, pier ownership, and privacy rather than square footage. With many older homes still sitting on the lake, development potential is key to assessing value; this includes TRPA coverage, the grade of the lot, and view potential, among other factors. Lakefront properties trade infrequently and are often shopped around off-market before making their public debut. Depending on the parcel, owners are minutes by boat from Sand Harbor, the Hyatt Regency’s Lakefront, or the Ski Beach boat launch.
