About This Property

A rare opportunity to own a fully restored historic landmark, the Nixon Mansion blends 1907 grandeur with modern precision. Originally built "On The Bluffs" for U.S. Senator George Nixon, this iconic estate has been meticulously reimagined, preserving its mahogany craftsmanship, Italian rooflines, and historic character while integrating today's finest systems and finishes. Set on 2.03 manicured acres with 206 feet of Truckee River frontage, the property offers 14,747 sq.ft. of living space, 8 ensuite bedrooms, grand entertaining spaces and 3,000+ sq.ft. of mechanical and storage space. With sweeping Sierra views and flexible potential, it stands as a legacy investment—timeless, irreplaceable, and built to endure. The result is not merely a residence, but an enduring asset — one of the West's most significant private estates, revitalized for modern living or adaptive use. Its scale and zoning offer flexible potential: a private compound, exclusive event venue, corporate retreat, or foundation headquarters — all within Nevada's business-friendly environment and absence of state income tax.
