Just what we needed!

The house was functional with plenty of space and natural light. It was also very quiet! I loved the kitchen as I was taking care of a relative post surgery and cooked a great deal. The master shower was a real blessing to get her wheelchair into without any problems. James was very helpful and accommodating with all of our requests. We will come and stay again!

Excellent stay

We had a fantastic stay at James'place! The house was big with lots of windows and plenty of rooms to hang out with family. The kitchen has everything imaginable which made it easy to use so we didn't need to go out to eat. We especially enjoyed the large backyard where we spent most of our time. His property is adjacent to a beautiful park with a public swimming pool. James communicated well and was available to us if we needed anything. A five star stay!

Why they chose this property

This property is close to everything Boise has to offer! The river, Boise State University, the foothills, downtown Boise, the airport, etc. All of these are 10 minutes away by car.

What makes this property unique

Beautiful 2300 square foot home with 3 bedrooms 3 baths and a quiet location on one of Boise's beautiful city parks. Beautiful black leathered granite countertops, with off-white cabinets make this a truly enjoyable kitchen to gather in and enjoy your family or just cook a meal. Enjoy cooking in this large kitchen fit for any chef in your family with a 36" gas cooktop, a double oven and a large stainless sink to wash up in. Hickory wood floors and brand new carpet throughout the common areas of the home. Enjoy the big back yard and generous deck while barbecuing and gather with friends and family or simply sit in the back yard and enjoy the birds and squirrels. The backyard is on Ivywild park and I have a gate that opens up into the park. Easy access to key attractions in Boise, including the greenbelt, Boise State University, Downtown, and much more.

This is a spacious single level home with 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. The main bathroom has a tub, the master bathroom has heated tile floors and a walk-in/roll-in shower (ADA ready). All bedrooms have queen beds and a quality inflatable mattress can be set up in the front living room for guests 7 and 8.

Note: The city pool in the park behind my home is typically open from Memorial Day through Labor Day.
