The friendly bears at the corner of Del Monte Lane and View Crest Court stand as a well-known landmark greeting locals driving between Rancharrah and Huffaker Lane. These bears are carved from the heart of a lofty sequoia that was struck by lightning in 2010. The estate owners commissioned a renowned local ice sculptor to transform the ruined sequoia into a lasting monument. The carving embodies the intricate craftsmanship, attention to detail, and dedicated stewardship this estate has received. These bears capture the essence of this estate, where a profound respect for nature and meticulous planning is reflected in every detail. You are now invited to tour these beautiful grounds and see for yourself how this estate harmonizes home and nature.
Mid-century modern aesthetics blend with a gorgeous landscape in this exceptional estate that harmonizes home and nature. Situated in one of Reno's most coveted rural settings, but only minutes to Rancharrah and other dining and entertainment. 2.5 lush acres feature over 150 trees--including over 60 sequoias; serene ponds, waterfalls, and creeks; spacious lawn; and charming bridges.
