Own This Award-Winning Riverside Home in Idaho For $650K

Perched above Idaho's calming Clearwater River, this striking property hits the market for $650,000.

Designed by Washington–based architect Paul Hirzel, the award-winning Canyon House of Juliaetta not only overlooks spectacular views of the river and mountain range, but also includes a breathtaking 46 acres of land.

Located just 20 miles from the city of Lewiston, the property, which is available for sale through Tomlinson Sotheby's International Realty, provides uninterrupted nature, as well as easy access to urban conveniences.
