1480 Cutthroat Run, Irwin, ID 83428

Property Description

For the serious fly fisherman, Swan Valley is about as close to home water heaven as it gets. This 2.8-acre property puts you within easy striking distance of the South Fork of the Snake River, celebrated for its wild cutthroat and legendary dry fly action, along with the Henry's Fork, the Teton River, and a network of smaller tributaries that round out a lifetime of fishing options. Few properties offer this kind of proximity to so much blue-ribbon water in one place, making it a natural basecamp for anglers looking to build their summer around the hatch. Built in 2025 by the contractor as his own personal residence, the 4,346 sq ft home was constructed without the usual compromises of a spec build, the craftsmanship and attention to detail throughout are hard to come by. A striking pivot door opens to cathedral ceilings, White Oak hardwood flooring, and matching oak trim. The layout offers 4 bedrooms, including 3 full suites, plus a flexible office/study that easily doubles as a fourth, along with 4.5 bathrooms across two well-proportioned levels, comfortable for hosting fishing buddies or family for the season. Two NanaWall glass accordion walls fold open to connect the main living areas with generous deck space above, while a custom engineered staircase leads down to a walkout patio below, an easy spot to break down rods and rig up before heading out for the day. The kitchen features a Signature Series appliance package, and comfort is handled year-round with forced air heating, hydronic in-floor heat, central air conditioning, and two fireplaces, one propane, one wood-burning. The homesite sits on elevated ground within Swan Valley's Palisades Creek Ranch subdivision, with wide views across the valley toward Baldy Mountain. The subdivision is well managed, with maintained road access, shared water infrastructure, an on-site fire protection system, and fiber internet already in place, practical amenities for a seasonal or full-time residence alike. Rounding out the property are a heated 3-bay attached garage, gravel driveway, automatic sprinkler system, professionally landscaped grounds, and ample pantry and storage space. Short-term rentals are permitted. New construction, unmatched access to some of the country's best fly water, and the privacy of a well-run subdivision, this is a rare opportunity for anglers seeking a serious summer home in Swan Valley.
