Now offered on the market for the first time in more than two decades. Tucked into a quietly coveted corner of east Gardnerville — along Rabbitbrush Drive — this full 6-acre homesite delivers the one thing Carson Valley buyers ask for and so rarely find: room to grow. Room for a legacy estate home, a guest house, a barn and horses, a shop, gardens — and still privacy to spare. The surrounding parcels are estate-sized too, and 5-acre-minimum RA-5 zoning protects the spacious, private character of the neighborhood you're buying into. This is the mountain lifestyle, lived year-round and Lake Tahoe is your backyard playground, about 35 minutes up Kingsbury Grade. Summer brings beach days, boating, and paddleboarding on the lake, hiking and mountain biking in the Sierra, and championship golf at the water's edge. Winter turns it all over to world-class skiing and snowboarding at Heavenly, snowshoe trails through the pines, and cozy evenings with a view. Every season ends the same way: home again beneath the Sierra Nevada, with space, quiet, and big-valley skies. Carson Valley itself is the other half of the draw — a genuine small-town community with a calendar that's full in every season. June brings Carson Valley Days, with its Main Street parade and old-fashioned carnival. Summers mean farmers market mornings in Gardnerville and Minden; fall brings Genoa's famous Candy Dance and gorgeous colors; winter brings the bald eagles of calving season and holiday lights glowing across the valley. It's the kind of place where the whole town turns out and where newcomers become neighbors fast. The land is a clean canvas for your own well and septic, your homesite designed your way from the ground up. Just a few miles from Highway 395 for shopping, dining, and medical, roughly 20 minutes to Carson City, Nevada's capital, and under an hour to Reno-Tahoe International Airport. When a property like this is gone, there is not another one waiting behind it. This is the rare chance to own six acres of Carson Valley exactly the way you imagine it.
