Mackay, Idaho

Properties like this do not come to market in the Lost River Valley. 18 irrigated acres across 3 lots with 1962 priority water rights, 360 degree mountain views, and a turnkey equine estate with two barns and infrastructure most ranches take a decade to build. Newly renovated, the home lives large with a 22 foot vaulted ceiling in the open concept living area, 10 foot ceilings crowned with Arhaus fixtures, 7 inch rustic oak floors, Hunter Douglas blinds, custom drapes, brand new appliances, and whole home water filtration and softener. Insulated and heated two car garage, RV garage with room for the tractor and toys, and a Generac backup system with two owned propane tanks, capable of powering the property independently for up to a year. Furnishings available under separate bill of sale. The new barn is fully lined in white oak with a 14 foot drive through aisle on rubber pavers. The open stall concept keeps the herd together and healthy, or retrofit up to five stalls or a mare motel to suit your needs. Automatic waterers, wash bay, tack room, and office, with utilities running throughout the barn, including the unfinished guest quarters, 1,008 square feet ready to finish as caretaker housing or rental income. Plans convey. A mature spruce lined drive on irrigation, a greenhouse with drip system, and an insulated bunkhouse round out the grounds. At the base of the Lost River Range, home to Mt. Borah, Idaho's highest peak, 2 miles from the 4.3 million acre Salmon-Challis National Forest, gateway to the Frank Church, the largest wilderness in the lower 48, with BLM access a mile away. Wild trout on the Big Lost, Mackay Reservoir, and elk, moose, and bighorn country minutes away. Sun Valley 41 miles over Trail Creek Summit, Craters of the Moon 44 south. Fiery sunrises and sunsets, Milky Way dark skies, and elk sparring on Crows Nest Mountain, all from your wraparound deck. A legacy property in one of the last untouched valleys in the American West.
