Beach Boys co-founder Mike Love and his wife, Jacquelyne, have quietly put their long-time Incline Village compound up for sale with an asking price of $43 million. The nearly 20,000-square-foot estate has served as a private creative retreat for more than four decades, blending recording spaces, unconventional spiritual touches and wide-open views of Lake Tahoe.
The property, at 969 Fairview Blvd and advertised at about 18,922 square feet with 10 bedrooms and more than a dozen bathrooms, is listed with Jeannette Harpole of Habitat Nevada with Keller Williams, as reported by The Sacramento Bee. The outlet notes that the home occupies a 2.5-acre parcel that the family has surrounded with additional protected land.
Inside, the compound keeps the bones of a fully integrated recording studio while layering in high-end entertaining spaces, a private cinema and a wine cellar topped by a backlit agate ceiling. Realtor.com highlights a primary suite set in its own wing, multiple gathering areas and a chef’s kitchen tailored for large-scale hosting.
Outdoor amenities and conservation
The grounds come loaded with resort-style extras, including a pool and a 10-person hot tub with lake views, a custom ice-skating rink on the upper lawn, a trampoline, playground, decks with snow-melt systems and an outdoor kitchen, according to the listing on Redfin. The family has also placed six surrounding acres into conservation to block future development, a move emphasized in the official listing materials. PR Newswire describes that step as a way to lock in both the setting and the views.
Music history and community ties
The listing leans hard into the estate’s creative pedigree. The property description reads, “This is a space where music was made into song. The good vibration of that history remains,” language drawn from the listing materials and echoed in local coverage. The Sacramento Bee also notes that Mike and Jacquelyne Love have longstanding ties to the North Shore community, including co-founding the Lake Tahoe School and backing local institutions.
Listing agent Jeannette Harpole told local outlets the site was picked for privacy and the vistas. “There are views from every window, whether you’re seeing Diamond Peak or you’re seeing Lake Tahoe. It’s majestic out there, and it’s protected,” she said in an interview with SFGATE. She also pointed to the relative convenience of Reno-Tahoe International Airport, which helps balance the compound’s seclusion with the travel demands of someone who still tours.
The listing lands in the middle of a headline-grabbing run at the top of the Tahoe market, where ultra-wealthy buyers and trophy sales have reshaped demand in recent months, as documented by Forbes. For a buyer chasing privacy, built-in creative infrastructure and protected natural buffers above the lake, this compound offers a rare package, along with a very high-profile slice of music history, at $43 million.
