This gorgeous modern mountain prefab home is set amongst the woods in Martis Camp, North Lake Tahoe, completed by design firm Sagemodern. The home was designed with significant consideration of the natural setting to blend in with the gradual slope, forest and adjacent putting park. The 3,250 square foot home is used as a family retreat, with a large kitchen and great room for friends and family to gather after a day of skiing or hiking through the forest.
The great room features a local quarried stone fireplace, radiant heated Brazilian slate floors, walnut cabinetry and a gourmet professional kitchen. The custom windows and doors framed by exposed timber and steel bring in the natural light to blend the indoor and outdoor living areas. The outdoor area features a spacious deck, a spa area protected by a large boulder outcropping, a fire pit for roasting marshmallows and an outdoor BBQ area.
The home was designed for family and guests and has five bedrooms including two master suites, a junior master, a guest room and a bunk room. All Sagemodern homes are created using prefabricated modules in a quality controlled factory environment and then delivered virtually complete to your home site. Their architectural style is rooted in the modern vernacular.
What We Love: This modern mountain prefab home offers cozy warmth thanks to the heavy use of wood both indoors and out.

Above: There is no air conditioning in the home, instead there is a heat-recovery ventilation (HRV) system designed to draw in fresh air and exhaust stale air. The benefit of a HRV is that when it brings in cool fresh air in the winter it uses the heat from the air being exhausted to warm the fresh air coming in. It is an efficient way to heat air. The grates were custom-made from a local steel fabricator.
