A gardener's delight, this classic brick, mid-century home is tucked away in one of Boise's most treasured locations, the iconic Mesa Vista neighborhood, located along the rim above BSU and a stone's throw to the heart of downtown. Charming living space with original hardwood floors throughout main level with built in book cases. The gorgeous, updated kitchen features quartz counter tops, abundant cabinetry and quality appliances. Downstairs you'll find a versatile space that could be a large bedroom or additional living/family room. Unfinished area is the perfect "tinker" or hobby spot. Need another space for an office, a place to create art or music or enjoy solitude and quiet to enhance your yoga or meditation practice? Wander into the yard and you'll find a lovely finished studio perfect for any one of these uses. Large 2 tiered sunroom off of the dining area adds another flex space where natural light abounds. For over 4 decades owners have tenderly cared for the property's dozens of abundant perennials, perfectly curated to provide bursts of colors and blooms from spring through fall. In addition to the one car garage, there is a covered carport, could be easily enclosed to make a 2 car-garage. Homes in this coveted community rarely come on the market, don't miss this opportunity to be one of the few that are lucky enough to call this special enclave," home sweet home".
