From the top step of the stairs leading to this Martis Camp estate is a veranda that begs you to stop, take a seat, and enjoy the cozy firepit that greets you. It’s an urge we completely understand. But the desire to step inside this 4,364 square-foot mountain home and behold a scene equally as attractive is even more enticing. There, beyond the front door, you’re greeted by a wall of windows running the length of the living space and revealing the back patio beyond. That illuminating scene sets the tone for this 5 bedroom, 4.5 bathroom home’s vibrant energy. The flow from great room to dining room to kitchen is complemented by sliding glass doors that open to a back patio with premium seats to this forested, oversized homesite. With firepit, a covered/heated dining area, hot tub and barbecue bay, this backyard oasis is ideally placed to capture the sun from its rise over Lookout Mountain to its setting over the Sierra Crest. There’s also a covered/heated cove to one side of the patio with fireplace and views of the ski slopes on Lookout Mountain. The kitchen, with its own door to the patio, has a hidden pantry and an expansive counter and breakfast nook that provides a comfortable gathering spot for everything from morning coffee to late night conversations. One wing of this home features an office, bedroom, and – further on – a primary suite with fireplace and access to the patio and a hot tub just steps away. The other wing holds a bedroom with front patio access, guest suite with mountain views, and – at the top of the stairs – a media room and a kids room with two double-over-queen bunk beds. A three-minute stroll leads to the Tennis Pavilion and Springs Pavilion, while Martis Camp's private slopeside Lookout Ski Lodge and the Martis Camp Express Chairlift to Northstar California Resort are only a few minutes drive away. These are just a few of the many amenities that inspire such authorities as Links Magazine to conclude that, “Beyond the golf course, the palette of four-season experiences is nearly limitless at Martis Camp.”
