Northwest Boise lies blanketed against the Boise Foothills to the north, the major thoroughfare State Street to the south, the city of Eagle to the west, and Downtown Boise to the east. It contains an eclectic mix of old and new neighborhoods, including Lakeharbor, which features the private Silver Lake, a reclaimed quarry. Northwest Boise has some pockets of older homes with a similar aesthetic to the North End, yet housing prices tend to be lower. Downtown is minutes away, as is Veteran’s Memorial Park and easy access to the Boise Greenbelt and Quail Hollow golf course. Across the river sits the Boise Bench and to the west is fast access to the bedroom communities of Eagle, Star and Middleton. (Info from Build Idaho.)
