Land for Sale in South Lake Tahoe, California
686 Cayuga St, South Lake Tahoe, CA 96150
Buildable lots in South Lake Tahoe are not all created equal, and this one brings a few real advantages to the table. The parcel sits in a quiet pocket with six surrounding U.S. Forest Service lots, creating more separation, privacy, and open space than you typically get in a residential neighborhood.The site is level, roughly 140 feet deep, and carries an excellent IPES score of 996. With 30% allowable coverage, plus added flexibility for decking and a pervious driveway, the lot gives a future owner more room to design something that actually works. Light tree cover keeps the Tahoe feel intact without making the property feel dark, and the south-facing rear exposure brings in strong natural light with filtered mountain views. For a buyer looking to build instead of compromise on an existing home, this is a clean, usable parcel with privacy, sun, and development characteristics that are increasingly difficult to find.
