The Intersection of Art and Architecture Offered for $3.75M
The celebrated Stremmel House is on the market, offering a light-filled floor plan and expansive valley views.
Surrounded by sagebrush and wildflowers on a peak rising 1,000 feet above Reno, Nevada, the Stremmel House enjoys 360-degree views of the city to the east and the Sierra Mountains to the west. Designed by renowned architect Mark Mack, the residence was home to art gallery owners Peter and Turkey Stremmel from 1995 until now. House hunters who want to own one of Nevada’s architectural gems can now purchase the property for $3.75 million.
Architectural Record named the building House of the Year, and Architectural Digest included it in its yearly AD100.

Recessed track lighting on the vaulted ceilings provide light and space in the spacious living area, and walls of glass afford the homeowner views of the Great Basin valley. The stained, polished concrete floors add a warm tone to the modern setting.
