Just dropped a new YouTube tour of a Garden City home that's worth a look if under $1M in the Treasure Valley is on your list. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FDEoF4GCY3s
The house sits inside Silverwood Point, a gated Garden City community that most locals don't know exists until they drive in. Tree-lined streets, water features running through the neighborhood, and gate-controlled entry. From the outside, you'd guess you were somewhere with a different zip code.
The numbers work. 3,200 square feet, four bedrooms, three baths, and an upstairs bonus room, all under a million. That comes out to less than $300 per square foot in a gated water-adjacent community, which has become genuinely rare in this part of the valley.
The house was built in 1992, and I'm going to be straight with you about that. On the plus side, you get two separate living areas, a formal dining room, and larger guest bedrooms than most 2020s builds include at any price. Kitchen has already been updated with quartz counters, a gas range, and a big island. On the other side, some of the finishes could use cosmetic refreshes over time.
The backyard is the reason to walk this one. Covered patio over the water, lily pads, ducks passing through, shaded lawn. It's the kind of outdoor space that's hard to price.
Garden City itself is minutes from Downtown Boise in one direction and Eagle in the other, with St. Luke's Boise a short drive up the road. If that mix of location, gated community, and water-adjacent lot fits what you're looking for, reach out.
