Property Description

From breathtaking sunrises to glowing sunsets and even the Northern Lights on the right evening, this is a home where every season brings a new view. Set on 5.75 acres just minutes north of Hayden, you'll enjoy the perfect balance of privacy and open space with natural gas, paved county-maintained roads, mountain views, and just the right amount of mature trees to preserve both the scenery and the peaceful North Idaho setting. A tranquil water feature welcomes you to the front porch, setting the tone before you ever step inside. The moment you walk through the front door, soaring chalet-style windows draw your eyes to the backyard as natural light pours into the great room. Vaulted ceilings, exposed beam accents, and a gas fireplace create a space that feels both grand and inviting. Designed for gathering, the kitchen features a large quartz island, KitchenAid appliances, a built-in beverage refrigerator with freezer, custom walk-in pantry shelving, and upgraded staggered-height solid alder cabinetry with soft-close doors and drawers, plus additional cabinetry and countertop space that make everyday living as effortless as entertaining. The spacious primary suite offers a custom walk-in closet, dual sinks, a beautifully tiled walk-in shower, and a motorized Sunsetter blackout shade over the bedroom window for added comfort. Just beyond, the expansive covered patio extends your living space outdoors, creating the perfect place to enjoy wildlife, quiet mornings with a cup of coffee, or evenings spent watching the colors change across the southwestern sky. Functionality is woven throughout the property with an oversized attached 3-car garage featuring five enclosed storage cabinets and an impressive 30'x50'x16' shop equipped with 50-amp power. Additional thoughtful upgrades include invisible patio screens, stacked stone accents, designer entry and dining room chandeliers, zoned heating and cooling with a smart thermostat, heated gutters, and the home is wired for a portable generator (generator not included). Beautifully designed, thoughtfully upgraded, and surrounded by some of North Idaho's most incredible scenery, this is more than a place to live--it's a place to truly enjoy coming home.
