Upscale in North West US (Boise, Idaho).
Southwestern style home with courtyards on private lane in SE Boise. Master bedroom and bath are downstairs with two bedrooms and a bath upstairs. Each bedroom has a private balcony or courtyard. 7 minutes from Boise River, 12 minutes from downtown Boise and 2 1/2 hours from Sun Valley; enjoy hiking, biking, river rafting or spend some time sampling craft beer and local wine from a multitude of nearby wineries and small breweries. Visit downtown Boise with its famous Basque block, art and history museums, Idaho State Capitol, and the Greenbelt along the river connecting a string of beautiful parks. The Idaho Shakespeare Festival performs throughout the summer and early fall just east of downtown in an outdoor amphitheater. During the winter, Bogus Basin is our local ski area only 45 minutes from city center with night skiing and loads of runs for every skill level.
Boise is frequently cited as one of the most livable cities in the U.S. It is big enough for plenty of social, leisure and entertainment venues without the traffic headaches of larger metro areas. Plenty of recreational opportunities throughout the year.
