armstrong tract - donner lake / truckee
perched above the truckee end of donner lake, the armstrong tract occupies a distinctive vantage point between the
lake and historic downtown truckee. many homes here enjoy beautiful views of donner lake, framed by towering pines
and the rugged sierra peaks that define this iconic mountain landscape.
the neighborhood offers a rare balance of tranquility and accessibility. residents are moments from donner memorial
state park, public piers and shoreline access at donner lake, while downtown truckee with its restaurants, galleries, and
year-round events is just minutes away.
with its elevated setting, classic mountain homes, and proximity to both the lake and town, the armstrong tract
represents a uniquely convenient pocket within the donner lake and truckee community.
"I’ve been building in Truckee for many years, and this site always stood out to me. The elevation gives you incredible
views over Donner Lake and the Sierra peaks, but you’re still just minutes from Truckee. It’s a special vantage point. The
lot also gives you a lot of flexibility. You could build a beautiful four-bedroom mountain home with a garage, and there’s
room to design additional living space or ADUs depending on how someone wants to use the property.”
sunny homesite ideally positioned to capture beautiful lake and mountain views while just minutes from donner lake,
