West shore real estate has attracted some of the world’s richest tech billionaires. The Shangri-La estate at 2020 West Lake Boulevard, is for sale, with a 22-meter indoor swimming pool, for $38.5 million. The home is next to a property owned by Mark Zuckerberg.
“The west shore, in particular, has some of Tahoe’s most premier lakefront estates,” Bill Dietz, president of Tahoe Luxury Properties, told Forbes magazine. “With large acreage estates and tall stands of old-growth trees, the elite can hide out and enjoy the calm waters the west shore is known for. The west shore is the old-money capital of Tahoe, known for classic yet understated and expansive estates.”
