Tucked at the end of a quiet private lane, 2185 Waterwheel blends wide-open space, foothill views, and the ease of country living. Set on 3.2 fully fenced acres in the heart of Emmett Valley, this property offers privacy and possibility—wake to soft mountain light over Squaw Butte and enjoy a slower, more intentional pace of life. Inside, vaulted ceilings and expansive windows create an open, welcoming feel. The living space centers around a cozy pellet stove, perfect for crisp Idaho evenings, while hardwood floors, custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a generous island make daily living and entertaining effortless. The main-level primary suite adds comfort and convenience, with three additional bedrooms and baths offering flexibility for guests, work, or growth. Outdoors is where the lifestyle shines: gather around the fire pit, keep chickens or animals, park the RV, or build the shop you’ve been dreaming of. With a 3-car garage, lean-to shed, chicken coop, and space for toys, the land supports hobby farming, recreation, or room to roam. Easy access to boating at Black Canyon Dam. Just minutes from the Payette River, this is more than a home—it’s an invitation to live the Idaho life fully, freely, and beautifully.
