The Views Wake up to unobstructed views of the foothills, valleys, and surrounding mountains. Step onto the master balcony in the evening for stunning Reno city lights stretching across the valley below.
The Kitchen A beautifully remodeled kitchen designed for those who love to cook and there's room for more than one chef. Granite countertops provide ample prep space, while custom cabinetry with pull-out spice racks and plenty of drawers keep all your cookware organized and within reach. Two sinks, a built-in 5-burner gas range with double ovens, and double pantries make this a true dream kitchen. Bright and airy with lots of windows, you can look out into the backyard while you cook. The open layout flows seamlessly into the dining room, family room, and patio, perfect for entertaining or keeping an eye on the kids while dinner's on the stove.
The Backyard Step outside to your private .3-acre retreat designed for those who love to entertain. The patio features an outdoor kitchen perfect for summer gatherings, with string lights overhead creating a magical ambiance for evening entertaining. Take in the mountain views while the beautiful framed and landscaped space provides both privacy and a peaceful garden setting. With RV parking and plenty of room to spare, this backyard delivers the space and flexibility that's hard to find in South Reno at this price.
The Den Working from home? This dedicated den offers the perfect space to set up your home office. Tucked away for focus and privacy, it provides a quiet retreat for video calls, creative work, or simply getting things done. Head outside to the adjacent patio when you need a break or fresh air between meetings. For those with remote or hybrid work options, this home delivers the flexibility to balance work and life without sacrificing either.
Room to Roam RV parking means your toys come home with you. Whether it's the boat for Lake Tahoe, the trailer for camping in the Sierras, or the RV for road trips, you've got space.
The South Reno Lifestyle
Living at 15509 Quicksilver Drive means having it all within reach. Hit the slopes at Mt. Rose in approximately 20 minutes. Cruise up to Incline Village or Sand Harbor in about 30 minutes for a day at the beach, a round of golf, skiing at Diamond Peak or a sunset dinner with lake views. Launch your boat at Washoe Lake or head to Tahoe for the weekend. Hike Galena Creek or bike the local trails. Golfers will appreciate nearby Montreux Golf Course. The upscale outdoor mall, The Summit, is just minutes away, along with Trader Joe's and Raley's One for everyday shopping. Then come home to your quiet, private retreat at the end of the day.
This is the balance South Reno offers, close enough to everything, far enough from the noise.

Rancharrah vs Montreux: Which Luxury Neighborhood in Reno Is Right for You?
Rancharrah vs Montreux: Which Luxury Neighborhood in Reno Is Right for You?
If you’re trying to decide between Rancharrah and Montreux, you’re not alone. These are two of Reno’s most sought-after luxury communities, but they offer completely different lifestyles.
This is not a small decision. The right choice depends on how you want to live day to day.
Shannon Comstock is a real estate agent in Reno Nevada helping luxury buyers and sellers navigate neighborhoods like Montreux and Rancharrah with a clear, strategic approach.
The Biggest Difference Between Rancharrah and Montreux
The simplest way to think about it is this:
Rancharrah is a luxury lifestyle in the center of town.
Montreux is a private, mountain-style community closer to Tahoe.
That difference alone will usually point buyers in the right direction.
Location and Lifestyle
Rancharrah: Central, Walkable, and Convenient
Rancharrah is right in the heart of Reno.
You are:
Close to the airport
Near Midtown and shopping
Right next to The Village at Rancharrah
Near McCarran, which makes commuting easy
You can walk to restaurants, a boutique spa, and shops. That is something you just do not get in most Reno neighborhoods.
This is one of the few places in Reno where you can live behind gates and still feel like you are in the middle of everything.
https://shannoncomstock.com/post/rancharrah-reno-nevada-living
Montreux: Secluded, Private, and Tahoe-Focused
Montreux offers a completely different experience.
You are:
Closer to Lake Tahoe
Near Mt. Rose ski resort
Surrounded by trees and mountain scenery
Further from the center of town
This neighborhood feels more like a retreat.
It is quiet, private, and much more removed from the day-to-day activity of Reno.
https://shannoncomstock.com/post/living-in-montreux-reno-nevada
Overall Feel: Estate vs Lifestyle
This is where the difference becomes very clear.
Montreux has more of an estate feel. Homes are more spread out, the landscaping is mature, and the overall environment is calm and private.
Rancharrah is more about lifestyle and convenience. Homes are newer, closer together, and designed for a lower-maintenance way of living.
If you are looking for space, privacy, and a mountain setting, Montreux stands out.
If you want modern living with everything nearby, Rancharrah is hard to beat.
Amenities and Community
Montreux
Private golf course
Golf membership available
Clubhouse, dining, and amenities
Heavily wooded, established environment
This is a golf and lifestyle community, but in a quieter, more traditional sense.
Rancharrah
Clubhouse with restaurants
Gym, pool, and social spaces
Walkable to Village at Rancharrah
More social, active environment
One thing to note is that Rancharrah requires a club membership.
At the time of writing, there is an approximate $8,000 initiation fee and monthly dues around $525, though these can change.
Privacy and Space
This is a big deciding factor for most buyers.
Montreux:
Larger lots
More space between homes
More privacy
Rancharrah:
Higher density
Homes are closer together
More neighborhood interaction
If you do not want to see your neighbors often, Montreux is the better fit.
If you are comfortable with a closer community feel, Rancharrah works well.
Who Rancharrah Is Best For
Rancharrah is a great fit if you:
Want to be in the center of Reno
Like walkability and convenience
Prefer newer construction
Want a low-maintenance lifestyle
Travel often and need quick airport access
Who Montreux Is Best For
Montreux is ideal if you:
Want privacy and space
Prefer a mountain setting with trees
Enjoy golf or want that option
Want to be closer to Tahoe and skiing
Prefer a quieter, more secluded environment
Who Should Avoid Each Neighborhood
Rancharrah may not be the right fit if you:
Want a large lot
Prefer privacy
Do not like homes being close together
Montreux may not be the best choice if you:
Want to be close to everything in town
Prefer a more walkable lifestyle
Do not want a longer drive to shopping or the airport
How to Decide Between Rancharrah and Montreux
It really comes down to this question:
Do you want to be closer to everything… or away from it?
If you want convenience, walkability, and a more social environment, Rancharrah is a strong choice.
If you want privacy, space, and a more natural mountain setting, Montreux is the better fit.
