1513 W Hays St

An authentic piece of Boise's history, brilliantly reimagined into a sleek loft-style residence in the North End! Built in the 1900s as one of the original 'ice houses', the striking double walled-brick facade pays homage to its roots, while the interior received a complete restoration-rebuild, fusing rich time-honored materials with postmodern design. Lofty double-story ceilings introduce the open floorplan, wrapped in soft hand-plastered walls that allow the artisan-crafted iron and wood detailing to come forth. Ample light and a wide open footprint make up the living quarters, while radiant-heated concrete floors span room to room. The gourmet kitchen is tucked behind a lengthy entertaining island, equipped with custom cherry cabinetry, concrete countertops, and state-of-the-art Wolf® and SubZero® appliances. Vaulted ceilings extend into the main-level primary retreat where a wall of floor-to-ceiling windows integrates the sleeping quarters into the private courtyard beyond.
