Off grid freedom meets private comfort: 15 acre backcountry haven tucked away in the legendary mountains of Idaho. Surrounded by mountains you will escape the noise, disappear into the trees, and live completely on your own terms. Tucked deep into the rugged backcountry of Idaho this exceptional 15 acre property offers the ultimate sanctuary for those seeking privacy, self reliance and pristine natural beauty. It is only 37 miles from Salmon on a well maintained year around accessible road. It offers starlink and fast speed internet. Refreshing potable water coming from both mountain spring and or well, also a 14.4 kw solar system along with power from Idaho Power (one of the only in the backcountry) keeps the home and large shop running year around. Although the 3 bedroom home is rustic it is a perfect property for someone desiring off grid living, hunting cabin or retreat. You will enjoy pristine air, starry nights, abundant wildlife and a peaceful silence broken by only the wind in the pines and occasional elk bugle. This land is fully primed and ready for your vision.
