About the Property
1020 Sunrise Creek Road | Verdi, California
7.5 Acres | 4 Bedrooms | 3 Baths | 3-Car Garage | ~2,193 SF
Not every property is meant to be perfect.
Some are meant to be legendary!
At the very top of Sunrise Creek—literally the crown of Verdi—you’ll find 7.5 acres of possibility backing directly to the U.S. Forest Service. No rear neighbors. No rooftops below you. Just panoramic views stretching across Verdi and into the Reno skyline, where the desert floor rises to meet the Sierra.
This is “king of the hill” living.
The Location Play:
25 minutes to Truckee
10 minutes to Reno
Backing to National Forest
Direct access to Dog Valley Road, Stampede Reservoir, and endless trail systems
Take your side-by-side down to Sasquatch Tavern.
Run Dog Valley Road to Stampede Reservoir.
Build the shop you’ve always wanted—because here, recreation is part of the culture.
This is recreation-first living with urban convenience in your back pocket. Morning coffee above the clouds. Dinner reservations in Reno. Ski laps in Truckee. All within reach.
The House:
It needs costmetic work.
It’s not a polished, mountain-modern showpiece. It’s a previously loved, first-time-on-the-market home with solid bones, a 3-car garage, a roof with life left, and a floor plan that absolutely works while you reimagine it.
4 bedrooms
3 baths
Approx. 2,193 square feet
Huge usable acreage at the top of the parcel
Privacy that’s nearly impossible to replicate
It needs a deck.
It needs cosmetic love.
It needs your vision.
But here’s the thing: you cannot recreate this setting. You cannot manufacture 7.5 acres at the very top of Verdi backing forest land. You cannot buy this view in a subdivision.
For the Truckee Family Who Gets It:
If you live in Truckee and you’ve dreamed of....
A legacy property with elbow room
Space for toys, trailers, and future outbuildings
A place your kids can roam and return to for decades
A property where you put your stamp on it instead of paying for someone else’s taste
This is your blank canvas.
Verdi — where the desert meets the mountains — is quietly becoming the strategic move for families who want land, privacy, and recreation without sacrificing proximity.
1020 Sunrise Creek isn’t trying to be perfect.
It’s offering you something better:
Freedom.
Views.
Space.
And the chance to create something that lasts. Opportunities like this don’t come polished!
