Tahoe-111

Like many old Tahoe homes, this home experienced many remodels over the years. First built in 1959, the owners outgrew the old family cabin and decided to upgrade. There original goal was to add a large dance studio to the house with 2nd story living space above. The project was never completed and was put on the market as an incomplete project. Eric Bervid of Bervid Custom Homes saw the great potential of the property and purchased it. He approached MWA to design a "remodel" to convert the property into a home worthy of its golf course location and proximity to the lake. The old cabin was converted into a two car garage, and the main living space was incorporated into the incomplete shell of the addition.

Kurt Reinkens and MWA designed my commercial building in downtown truckee after an explosion destroyed the historic building. Kurt delivered a building that fit nicely in old downtown truckee and the construction project came in on time and on budget. It does not get any better than that.
I was legal counsel to the design review committee of the Lahontan subdivision in Truckee during its first five years and as such saw all of the projects that came before the committee for review and approval. Kurt Reinken’s projects, and there were many, were nothing less than spectacular in design. Kurt is very bright and creative and I highly recommend him. Jim Porter, development attorney
