708 S Phillippi St Boise ID 83705 MLS #98987120

Centrally located on The Bench, this 1950s single-level home has both charm from the past and functionality for today. Once you step inside you’ll be greeted with eye-catching reminders of its era. Original hardwood floors and a wood burning fireplace with flagstone hearth set the tone in the living room and throughout the house. An art deco screen wall creates separation as you move into another spacious area. Use it as a dining space, a sitting room or both. Off it you’ll find a quaint corner kitchen with an enormous window looking out into the backyard. Positioned facing east, enjoy shaded summer evenings on the back deck surrounded by mature junipers, quaking aspens and arborvitaes trees. Freshly landscaped with added rock, flowers and raised garden beds, this is the ideal place to grow fruits and vegetables. Touches of character extend into the bedrooms with 50’s style angled ceilings in two of them, hardwoods in all and a secret passage between the front bedrooms. Updates already completed include new carpet, exterior paint, AC and water heater. With no HOA, use one of two added parking spaces for your RV, boat or toys. Incredible potential and less than 10 minutes to just about everything including BSU, Boise Airport, downtown Boise and easy interstate access for quick trips around the valley.
