If your North Idaho dream looks less like a subdivision and more like THIS… 👀🌲

This is the kind of property people ask me for ALL the time:

21+ acres.
TWO homes.
TWO shops.
No HOA.
Mountain views.
And room for the whole family.

This Rathdrum, Idaho property has 4,368 sq ft, 7 bedrooms and multiple living spaces, making it a pretty incredible setup for multi-generational living.

But the land and additional buildings are what really caught my attention.

There’s a 24' x 40' pole-barn shop PLUS an approximately 1,800 sq ft attached workshop.

And the 21 acres are listed as dividable, opening up some interesting possibilities for someone thinking long-term.

Any future division or additional development would still need to be verified with the appropriate county agencies.

Add in:

🌲 Usable acreage
⛰️ Views of Canfield Mountain, Signal Mountain + the Rathdrum Prairie
🏡 Guest/second residence
🛠️ Serious shop space
💦 Garden
🔥 Outdoor gathering spaces and firepit
🚫 No HOA
📍 Close enough to Rathdrum that you're not completely disappearing into the woods

This isn't really a property I'd buy because I needed another bedroom.

I'd buy it because I wanted to create something.

A family compound.

Multi-generational setup.

Hobby farm.

Space for the toys + equipment.

Or simply 21 acres where everyone has room to spread out without having to live hours apart.

Properties with TWO homes + TWO shops + this much usable land don't fit neatly into a Zillow search.

And that's exactly why this one is worth seeing.

👉🏼 Comment "COMPOUND" and I'll send you the price, photos + full listing details.

Coeur d’Alene, Idaho isn’t cheap anymore. So why are people still moving here?

Because for most of the people I work with, cheap was never really the goal.

They’re looking for something else.

They want to get out of the 6 lanes of traffic and constant GO-GO-GO.

They want pine trees instead of concrete.

Four actual seasons.

A lake they can use on a random Tuesday instead of somewhere they vacation once a year.

They want more space.

Maybe a shop.

Maybe some land.

They want farmers markets, community events, local restaurants and a place that still feels a little smaller.

And a lot of them are simply at the point in life where they're asking:

“If we can live anywhere... why are we still living somewhere we don't really enjoy?”

That's pretty much where we were when we left Arizona.

North Idaho wasn't some brilliant financial decision where everything suddenly became cheaper. 😂

We moved because we wanted our life to look different.

Nearly 9 years later, housing in Coeur d'Alene has gotten expensive.

Property taxes, insurance, groceries and utilities still exist.

Jobs don't always pay what people coming from larger cities expect.

And if you're moving here because someone told you Idaho is a dirt-cheap place to live...

You're probably going to be disappointed.

But people keep coming because affordability is only one part of deciding where you want to spend your life.

For some people, being able to walk downtown and end up at the lake matters.

Having mountains outside your window matters.

Getting outside more matters.

Community matters.

Slowing down matters

And being genuinely happy with where you live matters.

Coeur d'Alene isn't the inexpensive little North Idaho town it once was.

But for the right person, the lifestyle is still worth paying for.

That's the part a price-per-square-foot comparison will never tell you.
