Our home is Craftsman-style - open and comfortable, on the Payette RIver. Tucked in the forest downriver from the Shore Lodge with a spacious deck that looks out over the river below - the beauty and tranquility here make it the perfect retreat and a great place to celebrate family and friends being together. We are in a quiet residential neighborhood, with lovely full-time neighbors, so the only wildlife we want here are the ospreys, deer, fox, and the occasional bear sighting.
The 2,100 sf main entry level features 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, a spacious great room with solid cherry floors, large kitchen with island and barstools, a walk-in pantry stocked with more kitchen appliances and extras, a laundry/mud room, 10 ft ceilings, 8 ft picture windows looking east at the river and mountain views. The 4th+ bedroom is downstairs in a daylight basement with a queen bedroom, full bath, and an open living room area with a twin bed and 65" TV. It's a great suite for families with children who want a quiet separate area.
SNOWMOBILERS: Yes, there is room in our U-shaped driveway for trucks and trailers, BUT, our full-time neighbors are disturbed by the noise and exhaust generated by idling diesel trucks and/or snowmobiles being moved into the garage after dark.
