The story
- Basement
Room to breathe, with the mountains at your back. Some homes make it easy to imagine a different pace. Coffee before the day gets going. A ride with no need to load the trailer. An evening around the fire that lasts a little longer than planned. Set on 2.81 acres in a secluded community backing the mountains, 3317 South Cherryville Lane in Franklin, Idaho, offers that kind of everyday possibility. Inside, 3,462 square feet unfold across six bedrooms, four bathrooms, and generous gathering spaces on both levels. In the kitchen, solid wood cabinetry brings warmth and character, balanced by dark accents and a substantial island with seating. It's a place to pull up a chair, pour another cup, and stay awhile. The open floor plan keeps everyone connected, with a fireplace to gather around when the weather turns. The spacious primary suite offers a quieter corner of the home, complete with an ensuite bath, soaking tub, and separate shower. Walk in closets provide room to settle in. Downstairs, an expansive second living room gives the home another gathering place, with space to imagine movie nights, a game table, or a crowd cheering through the final minutes. Three large bedrooms include a guest suite with a sliding door, making room for the people you'll want to invite back. An oversized utility and storage room, along with cold storage beneath the porch, accommodates the practical side of acreage living. Outside, raised garden boxes, a chicken coop, and a rain barrel invite you to grow a little, tend a little, and spend more of the day outdoors. A loafing shed provides shelter for horses, while a three car garage and fully paid rooftop solar round out the property's useful amenities. Public land set aside behind the property provides access to mountain trails, while the community's enclosed riding arena is available for exercising horses, practicing barrels, or working on roping skills. And when the day is done, there's the fire pit, the mountain backdrop, and every reason to linger. Room for the life you have. Space for the one you've been imagining.
