Home Details
Own a piece of Boise history in this Victorian-era gem, once the personal residence of famed Idaho architect John E. Tourtellotte during his work on the Idaho State Capitol. Lovingly cared for by the same owners for nearly 40 years, this home blends preserved historic details with modern updates, including solar panels, completely updated electrical including all wiring, a remodeled kitchen, and walk-in closets in every bedroom. Light-filled rooms with soaring ceilings, original double-hung windows, and a welcoming front porch capture the essence of North End living. Fabulous floorplan offers flexibility. Enjoy a short walk to Bowden Park, top-rated schools, the Boise Co-Op, and downtown. The permaculture front yard yields berries, fruit, and vegetables, while the back patio invites outdoor entertaining. Two main-level bedrooms share a bath with a clawfoot tub; upstairs offers three more bedrooms, including a window-lined primary and updated bath. Detached garage with storage completes this rare offering.
