Star Harbor #27 is a harbor-view townhouse that blends Tahoe charm with everyday comfort, offering a peaceful lakeside home base for every season. Set along the shoreline in a private, amenity-rich complex, you’ll be perfectly positioned for winter skiing, summer lake days, and everything in between—plus easy access to Tahoe City dining, boutique shopping, and year-round outdoor adventure.
Step out from the main living area onto the spacious deck and settle into true Tahoe mode. In spring, enjoy a glass of wine while taking in the harbor views and listening to the nearby waterfall. In summer, the deck becomes your outdoor dining room, furnished with a table, comfortable seating, a large umbrella, and a Weber gas BBQ. Private stairs lead down from the deck for direct access to the harbor area, and it’s just a short walk to the boat slip.*
Inside, the home features a cozy sunken living room anchored by a dramatic floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace (wood-burning)—the perfect place to unwind after a day on the slopes. You’ll also have high-speed internet and a 55" OLED TV for movie nights. The kitchen is warm and inviting, with alder cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless-steel appliances.
Upstairs, the primary suite is a quiet retreat with a plush Queen bed, a spa-like en-suite bathroom with a walk-in shower, and a small electric fireplace for extra ambiance. Step out onto the private deck for panoramic harbor views, springtime waterfall sounds, and a backdrop of towering pines. The second upstairs bedroom is ideal for kids or teens, featuring a Twin-over-Double bunk bed, an adjacent full bath, and its own cozy deck with a peek-a-boo lake view. Both upstairs bathrooms are bright and airy with large skylights.
A third sleeping space on the main level offers a comfortable Double bed with an adjacent half bath, making it convenient for additional guests.
