Tucked among the pines in the peaceful Virginia City Highlands, 1755 Empire Road offers the kind of privacy, space, and connection to the outdoors that is increasingly difficult to find. Originally built in 1988, this approximately 2,146-square-foot home features 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, with a warm mountain-home character highlighted by vaulted pine ceilings, abundant natural light, skylights, and a striking fireplace that anchors the main living space. Surrounded by mature trees and natural landscaping, the property feels wonderfully secluded—you have neighbors, yet the setting provides a genuine sense of privacy and retreat. Outdoor living is a natural part of life here, with deck and patio areas, room to relax beneath the trees, mountain and wooded views, a circular driveway, RV parking, and an attached two-car garage. Just down Empire Road, Pinon Park offers additional neighborhood recreation with a basketball court and gazebo area, while the surrounding Highlands provide endless opportunities to enjoy Northern Nevada's open space, fresh air, wildlife, trails, and four-season outdoor lifestyle. Private well and septic add to the property's self-sufficient country setting, yet Reno, historic Virginia City, shopping, dining, and everyday conveniences remain within driving distance. Whether enjoying a quiet morning surrounded by the pines, entertaining outdoors, or simply coming home to a place that feels removed from the pace of the city, 1755 Empire Road offers a special combination of privacy, character, and authentic Northern Nevada living.
