Galena

Galena: This community is made up of several quiet neighborhoods located in South Reno. With Mount Rose Ski Area just 20 minutes away, and Lake Tahoe just 30 minutes away, Galena is as much Tahoe as it is Reno. Only 20 minutes away from downtown Reno, Galena is a conveniently located development close to hiking, skiing, casinos, and nightlife. With a median sales price of $1.32M and a range of $420K to $5.1M, there is something for the vast majority of buyers. Galena is home to the Montreux development; full of beautiful luxury homes with fantastic mountain and desert views. Montreux includes a Barracuda Championship Golf Course, designed by Jack Nicklaus, and is considered one of his top five courses. The golf course has a 34,000sqft clubhouse with a 5,000sqft fitness center, accessible only by members and homeowners. Galena Forest Estates is well-balanced between mountain life and city amenities. With Galena Creek running through the community, many trailheads are accessible. Most of the houses are custom built and come with a minimum of a half-acre. Galena Forest Estates offers a wide variety of housing choices. Prices start at around $400K and go up to $1.3M. Some homes are situated within an HOA, and some are not. This development is a melting pot of all that is best about Reno-Tahoe. Galena is also home to Saint James Village, a gated community where each home has a parcel of at least one acre; some homes have as many as four. Saint James shares its borders with the Mount Rose Wilderness and the Toiyabe National Forest. No additional development will occur, keeping Saint James a small, cozy neighborhood for years to come. 90% of Saint James is owner-occupied and has an estimated home value of $900K to $3M and up.
