Martis Camp #3 | Lake Tahoe

FORMA Construction and Architect Dennis E. Zirbel collaborated to create this 6,699-square-foot modern vacation home in beautiful Martis Camp on 1.85 acres of Golf Course frontage. With 6 bedrooms and 6.5 bathrooms, and a terraced backyard featuring four covered patios, two large uncovered patios, a fire pit, and a spa, it feels as though you’re entering a modern masterpiece.

As you open the front door, warmth balances scale in the scene before you: a two-story great room tucked into a well-sculpted landscape of pine, bush, and boulders, its corner stone fireplace — as well as the handsome reclaimed wood floors and ceiling — warming the scene even further. Wrapping around this wing of this modern vacation home is a patio with covered dining, a barbecue bay, and a hot tub. The dining room nestles up to its own wall of windows that faces the lawn and forest, while the chef’s kitchen enjoys lightly filtered morning sun. With a kitchen that can accommodate multiple cooks, a sizeable island for guests, and a nearby 600-bottle walk-in wine cellar, entertaining is easy. A nearby large media room calls to kids and adults alike, completing the gathering spaces.

Martis Camp, nestled in the pristine wilderness of Lake Tahoe, stands as a pinnacle of architectural innovation and natural harmony. Designed with a deep respect for the landscape, its architecture seamlessly blends rustic elegance with modern comfort. Each home is carefully crafted to maximize panoramic views of the Sierra Nevada mountains while employing sustainable materials and energy-efficient technologies.
