I shared Part 1 of the beautiful HGTV dream home 2014 in Truckee, CA last week, so today I’m back with the 2nd part of this inspiring and wonderfully built rustic mountain home. It’s amazing that someone actually will win this, but they will! I was reading that most all of the dream home winners in the past have ended up selling the home and getting the money out of it and I can certainly understand why. It would be hard for the average person to afford the taxes and upkeep on a home like this. But, you can bet if I won it, I’d spend a good long vacation out there and take all my friends with me!
Wouldn’t that be fun?
The master bedroom is spacious and beautifully appointed.
The interior design in the house is just beautiful. I love the colors used against the rustic backdrop of the house.
Master bed all decked out with pretty linens.
TV hung on the wall and a sitting area.
Sitting area with fireplace.
Master bathroom with a soaking tub. Ahh, yes!
Beautiful glass shower.
A modern chrome bookcase holds plenty of towels and accessories.
Master vanity
Floral on the vanity
More flowers by the soaking tub.
Rolled towels on a cute vanity shelf.
Hallway nook with console table and stools underneath.
Stairs going up to 2nd level.
Hallway and nook at the top of the stairs.
Lighting overhead
Cabinet in the hallway outside the kid’s bunk room.
I loved this colorful kid’s bunkroom. How fun and happy is this?
Wonderful details in here that any kid would love.
From the bold striped rug to the happy reds all around, it’s a beautiful space.
Bunk detail.
Closet door
Posters and red pinecones on a rustic trunk.
TV watching for every bunkie (wow!) and clocks for all time zones.
Kid’s bathroom.
Loved this curtain detail at the entrance to the room. Note the soaring ceilings with beams again.
Such a cool kids space.
Down the hall is another family room/media space done in orange and gray.
A happy mix of modern and traditional fabrics.
Note the menswear plaids on the chairs and more rustic wood accents on the walls. Will we see this trend in blogland? Who knows? Probably not at my house, but it looks really cool in this setting.
Large TV in here with lots of seating.
L-shaped orange leather sectional.
Pillows are so pretty.
Close up detail of the wood squares on the wall. Wonder how hard this was to install? I wouldn’t want that job.
Beautiful lighting and more of that stunning beam and metal bolts detail.
A guestroom is also upstairs, just big enough to enjoy.
Pretty orange and brown and cream linens.
A rustic clock above the side table.
With a TV and chest at the end of the bed.
And this gorgeous view outside the windows. Yes, please!
Guestbath is beautiful too.
And that wraps up the pics I took of the HGTV Dream Home 2014. What an awesome trip it was and such a fun opportunity to take a Dream Drive with GMC and their beautiful Denali cars.
We also had lunch in nostalgic Truckee, CA, a cute little down.
Large Christmas tree in the middle of town all decorated for Christmas.
On the sidewalk in Truckee.
We had lunch here at Bar of America and it was delish. All the food we had on our trip was SO good. I love to eat good food, all kinds.
On our way back to the Hyatt, we drove by Lake Tahoe just in time to stop and take some sunset pics that afternoon. The end to a beautiful day in CA.
Gorgeous sunset over Lake Tahoe.
I would love to go back there one day. Maybe I will!
I dearly love to travel and see new places and blogging has taken me places I never dreamed I would go. I can’t wait to see what this year holds for me and this blog. Three years ago, I surely never dreamed I’d be where I am now. Footloose and fancy free, enjoying life and traveling all over the place. Thank you ALL for coming along with me and watching me live my dreams, as I share them here on this blog.
2014 is going to be amazing, I can just feel it now!
Note:Â This trip was a sponsored trip by GMC and all travel expenses were paid for by GMC.
I absolutely love this house, and so does my husband. The media room decor is awesome, so glad Linda deviated away from her usual blues everywhere! I want to do that wall treatment with the wood blocks, what a statement-maker. Like you, I would love to spend a week there if I won, but I understand it’s not possible. I don’t remember why, but it has something to do with selling it afterwards. What a super home though! Thanks for the photos!
Rhoda, you are so blessed to get to go and do the things that you do! I sign up for this house everyday! I wish I could just have all the furnishings…Wouldn’t that be fun?!?! I’m so pleased that you took pictures bc you don’t really get close ups checking it out online, they aren’t that close up. I was hoping you would take pics of the master closet. Was the closet huge? Not that it matters, but a girl can dream, right? Good Times…Thanks for sharing ;-D
Hey, Melesa, glad you enjoyed the pics! I really don’t remember much about the closet, it was a whirlwind of info to take in. I’m sure it was nice though!
Hey Rhonda
I am looking at a couch on Josh and main,but hesitate because no reviews about quality, do you have any experience with their pieces?
HI, Anita, I haven’t tried any furniture except for a small accent chair. It’s definitely not high end, but cute and functional for what I needed. I’m not sure what to tell you on furniture pieces if there aren’t reviews out there.
Good for you Rhoda! Keep traveling and exploring! I too am footloose and fancy free and I love it! All the best in 2014!
The house and the town are gorgeous!
Thank you for sharing Rhoda, I do love the bathroom but for some reason the bedrooms don’t quite do it for me, I think a little loud with their design for a place that should be somewhere restful, well for me that is. But everyone to their own taste and I guess this is a show home anyway.

Lovely pictures of a beautiful house. Sometimes houses in the mountains are stuck in the 80’s (or earlier) without the benefit of being traditional. Loved the orange and gray media room – the plaid made it for me. (Couldn’t live with it day after day though).
Where did you find the mirror for above the bed in the master bedroom? I love it!
Hi,
I was wondering if you, or anyone knows where the vanity shelf is from in the master bath? I LOVE it, and have searched every viable website I can think of for it, or something similar!
Thanks,
Lindsey
HI, Lindsey, sorry I don’t know any details on items in the house.
