Lake Tahoe Report: Northstar's New Village

I've just returned from the Lake Tahoe region, having been there for the snowstorm that brought about 10 feet of snow to such California ski areas at Northstar.

But snow always comes along in winter. What doesn't come along every day is a new cluster of homes. Despite the storm, I could see at the base of the gondola that East West Partners' dramatic new "Village at Northstar" is well under construction.

The second phase of real estate offerings will be launched March 19, but to be in the hunt for any of the 92 condos you need a reservation by the end of February. East West has now sold out residences in the first phase. So if you're interested in a lovely spot in a major four-season resort area, take a look at this Village and call (800) 217-7554 to make a reservation.
