The price of the Tesla-powered home located at 3532 Knob Point Trail easily beats the previous record for the project, which is down to its last phase, some two dozen years after its approval. The previous record was $9.6 million in 2023.
The home was purchased by Clear Creek View LLC, whose registered agent is Aguirre Riley out of Reno.
On May 15, Douglas County commissioners approved a modification for the final phase of the project, reducing it from 19 to six units.
Eight of the project’s nine phases have been recorded and as of mid-May, 332 of the lots were sold and 154 homes were either built or under construction.
