"Brin, who co-founded Google in 1998 with Larry Page, is currently locked in a game of net-worth musical chairs with his new down-the-street neighbor Larry Ellison. Earlier this month, Forbes reported that "Brin leapfrogged Oracle's Larry Ellison and Amazon's Jeff Bezos on Tuesday to become the world's third-richest person." The 52-year-old billionaire has reported ties to Alpine Bay LLC, a Reno, Nevada-based entity that purchased the lakefront estate for $42 million in December after the lakefront palace languished on the market for eight years."
"The home, dubbed Crystal Pointe by its original owners, was built by Stuart Yount and his wife Geri. Stuart Yount is the former CEO of building material manufacturer Fortifiber, a company founded by his father, Stanley Yount. The property features two homes and two glass-walled funiculars that spirit residents and guests between the eight-bedroom main home and the 3,600-square-foot beach house. The listing came complete with a table for 12 made from "a 2,400 year old alligator juniper tree inlaid with semi-precious stones.""

The five-acre property was listed in 2017 for $75 million, two years after completion. The estate includes an eight-bedroom main home, a 3,600-square-foot beach house, two glass-walled funiculars, and a 12-person table made from a 2,400-year-old alligator juniper tree inlaid with semi-precious stones. The home was built by Stuart and Geri Yount; Stuart Yount spent more than a decade securing permits and served on the Tahoe Regional Planning Agency Governing Board from 2003 to 2009.
