First time ever on the market, this one-of-a-kind historic home offers the opportunity to own a meaningful piece of Eagle's history. Originally built in 1900 as the Eagle Adventist Schoolhouse and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, it has been thoughtfully updated while preserving its original character and blending historic charm with modern living. Inside, you'll find 3,887 square feet with 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, a bonus room, basement, and flexible living spaces. At the heart of the home is the award-winning kitchen, recognized as the 2013 "Best Reader Remodel" by This Old House Magazine. Soaring ceilings and expansive windows fill the space with natural light. Set on nearly half an acre, surrounded by mature trees, garden beds, a peach tree, and a raspberry patch. The original bell tower stands as a reminder of its history, while the detached studio apartment with a full bath is ideal for guests, a home office, multigenerational living, or Airbnb. Located just minutes from downtown Eagle, the property offers convenient access to restaurants, shopping, and the Greenbelt while enjoying the added benefit of remarkably low property taxes. Rich in history, beautifully maintained, and unlike anything else in the Treasure Valley, this is a place where the past has been carefully preserved while making room for the next chapter.
