About This Home

Phenomenal 1920's style home in Hyde Park! Relive the 20's in style with your private speakeasy, vintage architectural features and modern amenities. While the kids nap on the top floor, enjoy spinning a record while you lounge in the speakeasy, stretch out on the yoga mats or take up a game of pool in the billiards room. Then head right around the corner to enjoy Boise's best block or up the street a little to Camel's Back park and endless trails. The absolute best place to experience Boise's North End in style! You'll know you are in the right place when you see the vintage owl over the classic rounded front door, giving this home the neighborhood nickname of "owl house". When you enter through the front door, you'll be immediately embraced by the warmth and charm of the 1931 classic home. The wide open formal living room has an awesome functional fire place, original trim, stained glass and flows directly into the dining room through a gorgeous archway. The dining room is brightly illuminated by the four vintage windows and one of a kind antique light fixture. Through the dining room door is a kitchen seating area and the Butler's kitchen with granite counter tops and newer appliances. Fully equipped with a built in microwave, four burner gas stove top & oven, French door style fridge with freezer drawer on bottom, double sink with garbage disposal and stainless steel dishwasher. Down the hall is the bathroom with a shower, bathtub and double sink. The Master bedroom with two closets. Upstairs is the second bathroom which has a shower and single sink and two bedrooms. At the bottom of the stairs there is a den area, large laundry room with full size washer and dryer and the fourth bedroom. In this room, you will notice a curious little rounded door. Turn on the light switch and inside is a hidden speak easy! If you go through a door 1/2 way between the main floor and basement you will find yourself in the carport with the two car garage door to your left. The large backyard features a fire pit and lots of space for the kids to run and play in. There is a gate in the backyard so you can bring a car into the carport/garage or off the street, also plenty of street parking available on this corner lot.
