If you are searching for the lifestyle that northern Idaho offers — peace and quiet, room to move around, and a lovely place to call home — this beautiful property near Blue Lake is worth seeing. A 5,300 sq ft 4-bedroom home, multiple outbuildings, and a manicured setting spread over 25 acres, adjoining state land on three sides. The views sweep across a small valley, over Blue Lake (tremendous fishing...) and into the mountains beyond. Located about 9 miles from Priest River and only 30 minutes from Sandpoint, you have easy access to everything needed to make life convenient, comfortable, and fun. The home is well laid out for entertaining, with main-level living that flows from the dining room to the kitchen, through the living room with gorgeous views, and out to a large deck perfect for sunset dinners. The main floor master bedroom is spacious and private, featuring a custom bathroom. Downstairs offers 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a large living room with walkout access, a secondary kitchen, a workshop, and plenty of flex space to configure as needed. The grounds are lovingly designed with rockery along a seasonal creek, mature landscaping, irrigation, and walking paths. The outbuildings are built around the themes of storage, security, and country character. Not every property can offer two secured water rights, with water originating from on-site springs and supported by large buried storage tanks at the top of the property — a genuinely valuable asset in this region. State of Idaho timber land surrounds the parcel on three sides, ensuring privacy and the freedom to walk out your back door and go for miles to hunt, hike, or simply enjoy the outdoors. Across the road, Blue Lake spans approximately 80 acres — a perfect spot to launch a non-motorized boat and catch dinner. This property brings everything to the table.
