Property Description
Hidden away in one of the Boise Bench’s best-kept-secret neighborhoods near the iconic Boise Depot, this character-filled 1950's rambler feels like a little discovery all its own. Thoughtfully updated and renovated, it retains the charm of its era while offering the comforts of today. Set on an exceptionally large ~.42-acre lot, enveloped by beautifully established landscaping w/ fruiting trees, pollinator gardens, expansive decks, and sprawling lawns, creating a private, park-like setting. Inside, a fireplace anchors the great room, adding warmth & character, while large windows fill the space w/ natural light. The sunroom is a cheerful retreat w/ a pellet stove and working sink—perfect for an art studio, morning coffee, or a quiet place to read. An oversized kitchen hosts scores of cabinets, sleek quartz countertops, and updated appliances. The primary bedroom offers an unexpected touch of coziness & romance w/ its own fireplace and peaceful view of the outdoor sanctuary. Homes offering this combination of space, privacy, and convenience, w/ an abundance of outdoor storage & RV Parking, are becoming increasingly rare in the heart of Boise. This one feels like a step back to a quieter time—when lots were generous & trees had room to grow. Tucked away and wonderfully private, yet minutes from downtown, BSU, the Greenbelt, and the airport, this is a truly special place to call home.
