4480 N Kitsap Way Boise, ID 83703

A rare opportunity in Boise’s foothills—this distinctive property is both a home and a story, a mid-century marvel where charm & character shine. Built in 1954 and rumored to reflect the influence of Idaho’s own Art Troutner, the residence displays mid-century hallmarks: flat rooflines, stone fireplaces, log-beamed ceilings, expansive windows, and handcrafted cabinetry. Originally a single-family home and later expanded into a duplex, it has since evolved into four unique units: a warm 2-bedroom main house with a stacked-stone hearth, a charming studio, and a versatile 2-bedroom, 2-bath suite with balcony views and a fireside living room—rented as one or divided into two with hotel-style lock-off doors. Each unit exudes character, with abundant light and cozy interiors tucked into the hillside. Renovated in 2011 with updates to the roof, windows, plumbing, electrical, radiant floors, and kitchen, the home offers a strong foundation for its next chapter. Live in one unit and rent the others, restore it to a single residence, or continue its legacy as a darling inn or Airbnb. Privacy, artistry, and history converge in this one-of-a-kind property, minutes from downtown Boise, Hyde Park, and the North End—an extraordinary chance to revive an heirloom home of architectural significance.
