Five of the best houses near Lake Tahoe in the US
Lake Tahoe sits on the state line between California and Nevada and is a popular destination for outdoor enthusiasts year-round. We have rounded up five houses that make the most of the area's scenery and sports opportunities.
Lookout House by Faulkner Architects
Sitting at the base of the Lookout Mountain volcano near the town of Truckee, you can ski straight into Lookout House. A ramp connects directly to the ski run next door, so that its occupants can make the most of the snow in winter.
Concrete walls open out onto terraces and balconies at every level, and some of the windows are glazed with red glass to create dramatic vistas and interiors.

Martis Camp 506 by Blaze Makoid
This holiday home sits in a ski and golf community between Lake Tahoe and Truckee, Nevada. New York architecture firm Blaze Makoid clad the house in blackened cedar to blend in with the landscape in the summer months and stand in stark contrast with the snow in winter. Floor-to-ceiling glazing in the living areas frames views out over the Carson Range mountains.

Forest House by Faulkner Architects
California practice Faulkner Architects used expanses of board-formed concrete and glass for this house tucked away in an area of woodland on the north shore of Lake Tahoe.
The black steel rainscreen that covers some of the exterior walls is made of slats designed to imitate the bark of a tree.
