Welcome to 29 Willow Bend Lane, where the hard part of building your dream home has already been done. Set behind the gates of Franktown Estates on Toiyabe Golf Club, this exceptional 1.62-acre homesite occupies one of the most desirable and private settings within the community. Positioned at the end of Willow Bend near the 18th green, the property captures expansive views across the golf course, Washoe Valley, Washoe Lake and the surrounding Sierra Nevada mountains. And while the setting alone makes this property special, what has already been completed makes it an extraordinary opportunity. This is not a piece of land where the next owner has to start from scratch. Utilities are metered, HOA plans are approved, permits are in place, and the property is ready to move toward construction. Months of planning, approvals, coordination and upfront expense have already been handled, giving the next owner the opportunity to skip much of the uncertainty and time typically associated with preparing a custom homesite. The 1.62-acre parcel is considerably larger than many of the neighboring FrankTown Estates golf-course lots, with public records confirming its level topography, golf-course frontage and mountain, valley, water and golf views. The Willow Bend cul-de-sac is also tucked away from the primary community traffic while remaining within easy walking distance of the clubhouse and driving range. From the homesite, the landscape unfolds in nearly every direction. Green fairways sit against the high desert, Washoe Lake stretches across the valley, and the Sierra rises dramatically beyond it all. The aerial views show just how uniquely positioned this parcel is, surrounded by open space and golf rather than rows of neighboring homes. There are plenty of beautiful lots in Northern Nevada. There are far fewer where you can find acreage, privacy, golf-course frontage, lake and mountain views, a gated setting, and a substantial amount of the pre-construction work already completed. 29 Willow Bend isn't simply an opportunity to buy land. It's an opportunity to start much closer to the finish line. Bring the vision. Much of the groundwork is already done.

Rose Wilderness & Carson Range views - Two Custom Home Plans Included Rare opportunity in Washoe Valley: a flat, usable 0.93-acre parcel with sweeping views of the Carson Range and Mt. Rose Wilderness to the west and the Virginia Range to the east. This lot comes with two distinct sets of architectural plans, giving a buyer the flexibility to choose the home that fits their vision without starting the design process from scratch.

Everyday conveniences are close too, with South Reno and North Carson City both a short drive away for shopping, dining, and healthcare. Enjoy this flat lot with build-ready flexibility and mountain views in one of the region's most desirable rural-residential pockets — this one won't last!
