Lake Tahoe Homes for Sale

Lake Tahoe Nevada Information

The Sierra Nevada Mountains as far as the eye can see are a magnificent backdrop for the largest fresh water Alpine mountain lake in our country. Lake elevation is 6,223 ft., with two state line boarders, Nevada and California. To drive around the lake is about 75 miles. The lake is approximately 22 miles long and 12 miles wide. Besides the sheer natural beauty of the area, the world-renowned ski resorts and casinos are huge tourist attractions. I have heard Lake Tahoe referred to as 'Lake of the Sky, Heaven on Earth', certainly a wonderful place to buy a home for sale.

Residents of Tahoe enjoy sunshine 75% of the year and yet an average of 125 inches of snow falls each year. The higher elevations have a snow fall that triples the lake level, which of course translates to pristine ski conditions and a picturesque view.

Real estate for sale in Lake Tahoe and the surrounding areas offers everything from cozy mountain cabins to luxury estates. Imagine having the perfect view from every window in your home. You can enjoy the change of seasons and recreational activities that come with it in Lake Tahoe and even though we typically have snow fall from October until April and yet the lake never freezes. Partly due to it's size and the mild winters we enjoy.
