This home has room for everyone with ideal indoor and outdoor living making it easy to enjoy the wonderful seasons Boise has to offer. The large kitchen with island seating and dining nook make it a great place for family meals and extra seating can be found outside on the patio. In addition to the patio and grill area, the backyard features a half court basketball court as well as a grassy area and firepit. The yard is fully fenced and has a doggy door to the backyard suitable for small/medium sized dogs.

The house was big enough to host our large family. We enjoyed the use of the backyard basketball hoop and fire pit. The kitchen was well stocked. Communication with property owner was very good.
