    Overview

    Set on a rare, level one-acre parcel, this duplex-style property offers flexible dual-living arrangements on 1259 Bonanza Avenue in South Lake Tahoe. Each unit features two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a spacious loft area that can serve as extra sleeping space, a home office, or a bonus living area. One loft includes a second living space with a wood-burning stove, a bunk bed area, and access to a private deck, creating a guest- or family-friendly layout.

    Inside, the living areas feature vaulted ceilings and knotty pine paneling for an authentic Tahoe-cabin feel. Both kitchens include gas ranges, built-in dishwashers, and wood cabinetry. Practical improvements include natural gas hydronic heating, dual-pane windows, and laundry hook-ups in each unit, with a washer and dryer included in one unit.

    The property is accessed through a gated driveway with ample parking for multiple vehicles, boats, or recreational gear. The expansive lot provides privacy while still offering easy access to shopping, transportation, outdoor recreation, and the lake. This configuration can support a range of uses, including living in one unit while renting the other, multi-generational living, or a work-from-Tahoe lifestyle with separate living spaces. An adjacent vacant parcel at 1258 Emerald Bay Road is also available for purchase, which could expand the holding to approximately two acres.
