Blocks to Lake Serena! Contractor's Special! Welcome to nostalgic Serene Lakes and historic Donner Summit. Located on a quiet and peaceful cul-de-sac, this vintage log chalet sits on a level lot and is ready for a new vision! With wood walls and open beam wood ceilings, this fixer could be the blank slate you've been dreaming of! Upstairs bedroom has vaulted wood ceilings and front balcony. And don't miss the bonus space/attic accessed by the pull-down stairs in the hallway. The back decks give you ample room to take in the nature that surrounds you. In the summer, enjoy lazy days at the private Homeowner's beach with snack shack, docks, kayak and SUP storage, or explore the miles and miles of hiking trails that surround you. In winter, Royal Gorge X-Country is just up the road, with nearby Sugar Bowl and Donner Ski Ranch further up historic Old 40/Donner Pass Road. Serene Lakes is your base for 4 seasons of outdoor fun and adventure! This is where memories are made. Don't let this opportunity pass you by!
