1960 Manzanita LN Lane Reno, NV 89509

The Hirsh home is one of Reno's architectural masterpieces. This geothermal gem was designed specifically to match the dramatic hillside setting overlooking Lakeridge Golf Course and the south Truckee Meadows beyond. As you enter through the double door entry, you are pulled immediately through the light and elegant foyer to the beamed and vaulted great room and the breathtaking views beyond., Anyone looking for something absolutely extraordinary has to view this elegant and timeless home. As you walk from the foyer to the great room, the floor transitions from the antique ground tile to the hand-tooled walnut planking that is featured throughout the home. The great room is quite large, yet not overwhelming. Rather, you are embraced with the intimate friendliness that the room offers. All masterfully designed homes have an architectural centerpiece. The large beautiful fireplace with its intimate seating area is this home's focus. A picture may be worth a thousand words, but a picture cannot convey the feeling this room gives to its owner. If you had been among the many Renoites who attended a gathering in this beautiful home, after socializing for a time in the great room, the double doors would open to reveal the stunning dining room replete with domed ceiling. This incredible room can seat a formal dinner for forty, or an intimate dinner for two. Why the domed ceiling? Modern architects are rarely given the budget for such a useful extravagance. Put forty partygoers in this amazing room, and no-one has to raise their voice to be heard. Place two people in the same room and there is no feeling of emptiness or echo. Truly amazing! The adjacent kitchen is truly well thought out. It can be open to the dining room and great room for informal gatherings and everyday use, or artfully hidden by three sets of double doors with piano hinges for a more formal feel. The kitchen itself is designed to be used and enjoyed. The vaulted and beamed ceiling motif is carried into the kitchen to reinforce the country French elegance. Time has not passed this kitchen by, it has been artfully updated several times and includes separate Sub Zero refrigerator and freezer. The six burner Viking Commercial cooktop can handle any job, as can the large Thermador convection oven. There are two sinks perfectly located for prepping and cleaning. Of course the hand-tooled walnut floors are present in this room as well. Tired of pulling your special sets of china out of hard to reach cabinets? No longer. The kitchen and butler's pantry has shelving and pull outs to handle anyone's collection of fine china and specialty cookware. There are even special appliance hiding places, grocery pass throughs, and seven foot drawers to handle table cloths and other large flat items. No country French kitchen is complete without a breakfast room or day room. This elegant little room looks out over the beautiful view and perfectly completes this design. The party is over and you are ready to retire to the master suite. Two ensuite bathrooms, his and hers, are tastefully appointed with Sherle Wagner faucets and hand painted ceramic sinks. Both bathroom areas have huge amounts of storage and closet space. Her bath features full length and half length three way mirrors, a large soaking tub, bidet, and huge walk in closet. His bath features warm contemporary paneled closet doors and an oversized multi head shower. The design and proportions of this home are truly extraordinary. The master bedroom seems just right for any configuration, and of course, the country French vaulted and beamed ceilings are present in this room also. The feeling in the room is soft and comfortable, and the painted beams add a wonderful soft contrast to the high ceiling. The private balcony is intimate and cozy and completes a perfect master suite. There are many other surprises that await if you truly desire to experience unparalleled elegance, quality, and extraordinary design. A few of the mode
