"Sitting on the rocky cliffside between state Route 28 and the blue waters of Crystal Bay on the Nevada side of north Lake Tahoe, the custom-built Crystal Pointe mansion has a peculiar construction. The 5-acre plot boasts two homes connected via two glass-walled funiculars, which carry residents between the eight-bedroom main house and the 3,600-square-foot beach house and private beach below."
"Stuart Yount is the former CEO of building material manufacturers Fortifiber. The company was founded by Yount's father, Stanley Yount. In a tour of the home featured on KXTV-TV in 2017, when the Younts first tried to sell the property, the couple boasted that they could walk around the house naked due to its unparalleled privacy over the bay. The couple also showed off the funiculars, along with caviar in the fridge."
