26.42 Acre North Idaho Homestead with Selkirk Mountain Views, Orchard, Hay Fields & Shop Set on 26.42 acres just 20 minutes north of Bonners Ferry, this established North Idaho homestead offers panoramic views of the Selkirk Mountain Range and the opportunity to step into a lifestyle many people dream about but rarely find already in place. Mornings here often begin with the first light hitting the mountains and a quiet walk around the pasture, taking in the expansive views and watching wildlife move through the fields. Throughout the seasons, the land offers both beauty and productivity"”from the hay fields and orchard to the garden and surrounding forest. The 2,640 sq ft home features 3 bedrooms plus a loft, with the primary bedroom conveniently located on the main floor. Large windows fill the home with natural light and showcase the surrounding landscape. Heating options include wood heat and propane, and the home is equipped with two water heaters, one serving each bathroom. A classic clawfoot soaking tub adds charm and comfort. The property consists of two separate parcels (20 acres and 6.42 acres), providing flexibility for additional homesites while maintaining separate parcel numbers. The land is well suited for agricultural and homestead use with 10 acres of organic grass/alfalfa hay fields, generally producing over 20 tons in one cutting, along with approximately 13 acres of forest offering privacy, wildlife habitat, and a natural source of firewood. Homestead infrastructure is already established and includes a hay barn, chicken coop with attached shed, separate nursery coop, and covered storage area. Approximately 2 acres of fenced pasture have recently been updated with electric and poly-coated wire fencing. The fenced organic garden features established perennial plantings including raspberries, strawberries, blueberries, sunchokes, rhubarb, kiwi, and grapes, while garlic for the 2026 season is already emerging. The fully fenced orchard includes 12 fruit trees"”plum, apple, pear, cherry, and a young peach tree"”with a walnut tree located near the fire circle. Outdoor living spaces invite time outside, whether enjoying evenings around the fire ring while watching deer and elk graze the alfalfa fields, or simply taking in the quiet beauty of the surrounding landscape. A large shop adds versatility with a separate freezer/storage room and bonus space with a wood stove, pre-wired for a mini split. This space has served as an upholstery shop, guest/teen bedroom, home gym, and office, offering flexibility for work, hobbies, or additional living space. Located in the northern portion of Bonners Ferry's "banana belt" microclimate, the property typically experiences less snow and warmer spring temperatures than other parts of the county. Access is convenient year-round via a county-maintained road less than 1/4 mile from Highway 1. The location also offers excellent access to outdoor recreation.

With productive land, established gardens and orchard, multiple outbuildings, and breathtaking mountain views, this property offers the rare opportunity to step directly into a well-established North Idaho homestead lifestyle.
