Property Description
Big Lost River Valley living on 13.1 acres of pastoral ground framed by the Lost River Range. Home to Idaho's tallest peaks and bordered by working irrigated farmland. Sheltered inside a windbreak of mature spruce and shade trees, this solid brick ranch has been lovingly maintained by one family for decades: 1,498 sq ft on the main level plus a 1,312 sq ft basement, 4 bedrooms and 2 baths across both levels. The classic birch-cabinet kitchen with solid-surface counters opens to a bright living room with built-ins, and the glass sunroom off the living area is the showstopper - morning beverage, mountain light, and the hot-tub deck just outside the door. The grounds work as hard as they charm: attached 2-car garage, 16' 20' workshop, three storage sheds, and a grain bin. Private well, private septic and propane forced-air heat.10 minutes to Mackay, with world-class fishing, hunting, and backcountry access in every direction. Four decreed water rights convey with the sale, including senior Big Lost River priorities dating to 1894 and a groundwater right served by the on-site well; water rights documentation package available. Sold as-is; property held in trust. Buyer to verify all information.
