Tucked within the resplendent Sierra Nevada mountain range and beside the gleaming waters of Lake Tahoe, Osprey Estate occupies an eight-acre property at Incline Village, Nevada. This elegant and rare estate is currently for sale and, though it’s listed at $34 million with Chase International, there’s no reason why we all can’t take a peek.

Osprey Estate is an extraordinary property located on the north shore of Lake Tahoe, Nevada. Its owners—a renowned inventor and his wife, an accomplished interior designer—worked with architects Eric Thiele and Rod Ashley to establish the estate’s contemporary design and construction.  Bob Murase, a Portland landscape architect, enhanced the property’s natural topography.

The land is magnificent of its own accord. The acreage gently slopes down to a private pier and sandy stretch of lakefront. Flanking the main residence are two creeks, whose water flows serenely over huge granite boulders. The Sierra Nevadas offer stunning views beyond the lake to the south. Rows of sturdy cedars provide summer shade, winter protection from blustery weather and year-round privacy to the main residence. “With magnificent landscaping and a wide sandy beach, Osprey is the essence of privacy and serenity,” says Sandy Chase, president and CEO of Chase International.

The architecture of Osprey Estate’s main residence, guesthouse and conference center perfectly complements the property’s inherent beauty. Each structure features expansive windows and skylights that overlook Lake Tahoe and allow abundant natural light to enter the rooms. The dazzling tones of sunrises, sunsets and reflections off the lake take center stage in each abode.
