Property Description

An iconic North End home, The Lion House stands as one of Harrison Boulevard's most celebrated and historically significant residences. Designed in 1911 by renowned architect John E. Tourtellotte — whose work includes both the Idaho State Capitol and St. John's Cathedral — this extraordinary California Mission-style home represents a rare opportunity to steward a piece of Idaho's architectural heritage. Originally commissioned for prominent Boise businessman G.W. Bond and later serving as the Governor's private residence, the property is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The Lion House remains a remarkable example of enduring craftsmanship, thoughtfully preserved and carefully restored to honor its original character while supporting modern living. Residence includes 4 bedrooms & 3.5 baths + a guest casita offers an additional 1 bedroom & 1 bath. Beautifully updated kitchen, impeccable woodwork, tile, built in's, finishes & living spaces on main & upper levels. Charming finished attic provides flexible bonus space for playroom, recreation, fitness or retreat. Spacious lower level features a media room with wet bar, custom wine cellar & office/bonus room. Private courtyards create exceptional outdoor living with an outdoor fireplace, built-in grill, lush lawns & mature landscaping. Just blocks from Camel's Back, Hyde Park, foothill trails & popular schools.
