This land is located between two canyons — the upper Southfork Canyon with class III-IV rapids, and the Old Swirly Canyon, in which hotsprings flow into the river. The rivers in the area are used for commercial whitewater recreational outfitting. Located 1.5 hours north of Boise, Idaho in Garden Valley, this pristine private 12.5 acre parcel is a gorgeous piece of land and is nestled in ponderosa pine and douglas fir forest teeming with wildlife — elk, deer, wild turkeys, moose.

The property contains a 12x24 storage shed with a separate meter ideal for an off-grid application. There is also a well house with pump and an old farmhouse.

Six acres are zoned dry agriculture and 6.5 acres are zoned agriculture and all are building lot approved in Payette River Heights subdivision. Twenty-two 5-acre parcels also adjoin this property. There are no existing restrictions or CCRs with this property.

Surrounded by BLM and Forest Service property, it is backed by a hillside in which a 300 foot gravity flow water system is in place. The last 100 feet drop vertically in which turbines may be installed to generate electricity. This is a self-sufficient piece of land sitting on extremely hot underground geothermal water. There is also a 271 foot 12-gpm well and a 371 foot 80-gpm well on the property. Water rights are also allocated from the South Fork of the Payette River which the land borders. The water rights are approved for irrigation, agriculture, aesthetic storage for ponds, commercial for greenhouses, domestic use and fire protection.

This parcel of land is an original United States of America homestead plat with mineral rights from 1862. Private owner since 1988.
