Above the eastern shore of Lake Tahoe, set into granite and pine in Incline Village, this stone estate has existed as a private world for more than six decades. For over forty of those years, a two-time Rock and Roll Hall of Famer called this estate, which is just under 20,000 sqft, home. Over time, it has become a sanctuary for living and creating, shaped by its setting and removed from view.
The recording studio remains intact and fully integrated into the home, preserved as it was designed. Pitched ceilings, tuned acoustics, and wiring embedded beneath the floors remain in place. This is the original space where the work took shape, where songs formed, and where a significant chapter of American music came into being. It remains ready for use with the good vibrations of that history still present.
The estate is surrounded by 6 acres placed into conservation by the family to preserve the landscape and prevent future development. This protected land secures the setting by preserving the privacy, the views, and the natural surroundings as they exist today. Granite outcroppings, towering pines, and a 180-degree panorama of Lake Tahoe and the Sierra Nevada define the experience of the property.

Arrival begins beneath a stone arch, where a hand-carved Ganesh and Tibetan statues frame the entry. A ten-inch-thick carved wood door set with rubies, commissioned from and blessed by artisans of the Dalai Lama, opens into a rotunda anchored by an indoor koi pond and a freestanding spiral staircase in wrought iron. Overhead, a hand-painted celestial dome stretches across the ceiling in deep cobalt, scattered with stars, setting the tone for a home designed with intention beyond architecture.

The great room forms the center of the main level, framed by floor-to-ceiling glass and retractable walls that open directly to the terrace and lake beyond. A two-story river rock fireplace anchors the space, while a grand piano and full harp rest along the perimeter. Custom American oak parquet flooring was designed specifically for this room.

The main level is arranged for daily living and large-scale gatherings, with the kitchen, dining area, and outdoor spaces all oriented toward the lake. A covered outdoor kitchen extends the living experience beyond the walls of the home, keeping the setting present throughout. The formal dining room seats twelve beneath crystal chandeliers, with water visible from every window.

Eight en-suite bedrooms span three levels, most with private balconies. The primary suite occupies its own wing, defined by carved reclaimed wood, chevron oak flooring, a linear stone fireplace, and a private deck overlooking the lake and mountains. Dual baths are intentionally distinct, one centered on stone and steam, the other on a soaking tub, sun deck, and private bar.

The lower level functions as a self-contained environment for recreation, work, and restoration. A private cinema and a wine cellar with a backlit agate ceiling anchor the space. Additional areas for fitness, relaxation, and private meetings allow daily life to unfold entirely on-site.
