Just Sold | Buyer Acquires Dollar Point Lakefront Retreat for $10M

Prime Lakefront Location in Dollar Point

3334 Edgewater Drive, Tahoe City, California

5 Bedrooms | 4.5 Bathrooms | 3,955 SF

Sale Price $10,000,000

Dollar Point Lakefront in Tahoe City

As Fall approaches, demand for Lake Tahoe lakefront properties remains as strong as ever. This recent $10M sale at 3334 Edgewater Drive, in the highly sought-after community of Dollar Point, is a benchmark for continued interest in lakefront living and a reminder of why Tahoe remains one of the world’s most desirable destinations for luxury real estate.

Why This Sale Stands Out

Dollar Point offers some of the most coveted shoreline on Lake Tahoe, and opportunities like this are rare. For our buyers, the appeal was clear—unmatched lakefront living paired with the vibrant lifestyle and sense of community that Dollar Point is known for.

Buyer Motivations

  • Lifestyle & Community: The buyers were drawn to the unparalleled Tahoe lifestyle, where lakefront living means both serenity and connection.

  • Prime Location: Dollar Point’s combination of privacy and proximity to Tahoe City makes it a standout choice for families and vacation homeowners alike.

  • Ongoing Demand: With limited lakefront inventory, securing a home of this caliber reflects the continued strength of Tahoe’s luxury market.

  • Spacious Retreat: The residence offers 5 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, and expansive gathering spaces designed for both entertaining and everyday living.

Luxury with Timeless Design

Originally redesigned and expanded by renowned architect Dick Whitaker, this 3,955 sq. ft. home blends timeless craftsmanship with modern comfort. Highlights include a temperature-controlled wine cellar with capacity for 2,500 bottles—perfectly curated for display and tastings—and sweeping 180-degree lake and mountain views. Fully furnished and move-in ready, this retreat captures the essence of turnkey luxury living.

Looking Ahead

Lake Tahoe lakefront homes continue to set records and define luxury in this world-class destination. Whether buying or selling, opportunities like these highlight the enduring appeal of Tahoe’s shoreline lifestyle.

Considering selling or searching for your Tahoe retreat? We are happy to help deliver results and exceptional representation.

Wishing you a wonderful Fall season in the Sierra. 🍂

Just Sold | Kings Beach Record Lakefront Sale at $14.5M

Record-Breaking and Highest Recorded in our MLS: Lakefront Sale in Kings Beach at $14.5M

9910 Lake Street, Kings Beach, California

5 Bedrooms | 6 Bathrooms | 4,729 SF

Sale Price $14,500,000

Lakefront in Kings Beach, California

We’re thrilled to share the recent closing of 9910 Lake Street in Kings Beach, which sold for $14,500,000—now the highest recorded MLS sale in Kings Beach or Tahoe Vista.

Why This Sale Was Unique

Lakefront homes in Tahoe are among the most nuanced and complex properties in our market. Each lakefront home comes with its own set of characteristics and challenges, and this one was no exception.

What made this transaction stand out was that the property was still under construction—both the home and the pier—at the time of sale. Successfully closing a lakefront home in the middle of construction required navigating countless moving parts.

Navigating the Complexities of a Lakefront Sale

This sale required collaboration across multiple agencies and experts, including:

  • California State Lands

  • Army Corps of Engineers

  • Tahoe Regional Planning Agency (TRPA)

  • Placer County

  • The builder, architect, and land use consultant

It was truly a delicate dance of coordination, approvals, and communication.

Off-Market Success

One of the most remarkable aspects of this closing was that the home never hit the open market. After just a few calls, the first agent who toured the home brought us the buyer.

This result was only possible thanks to an incredible team of professionals working together with dedication and transparency.

A Team Effort

This would not have happened without a spectacular team of people, all who worked tirelessly alongside us with the absolute best communication and teamwork. It was a collective effort that showcased the power of strong relationships and trust in the Tahoe luxury real estate community.

What This Means for the Tahoe Market

At $14.5 million, this sale sets a new benchmark for luxury properties in Kings Beach and Tahoe Vista within our MLS records. It’s a powerful reminder of the continued demand for Lake Tahoe lakefront homes and the unique value of lakefront living in this world-class destination.

When you choose to work with Amie and her team, you’re partnering with real estate professionals who will position your property for success.

What could be more perfect than a town on the shores of Lake Tahoe? The majority of condos and homes here are either on the North Shore or the West Shore of Lake Tahoe separated by the “Y” intersection of Highways 28 and 89 in Tahoe City making it the hub many communities in both directions. Both areas have fantastic benefits – the West Shore tends to have a slower pace and miles of trails and the North Shore tends to be sunnier and has spectacular beaches. The areas around Tahoe City have offerings like classic old Tahoe condos and homes, new mountain modern single-family homes and luxury enclaves with unparalleled amenities and private beaches. So, whether you’re looking for a private beach and pier, a pool for the kiddos, a classic Tahoe cabin or a small condominium to use as a basecamp, Tahoe City has you covered.
