White House is a monument to the history of Boise. This property is named after the White Family, who built the house in 1948. The house remained in the ownership of the Whites and their descendants for three generations until the current owners saved it from developer demolition in the fall of 2018.
Beginning in 2019 this beautiful home went through an amazing transformation! Tastefully modernized incorporating custom accents, while preserving historic appeal, the house integrates thoughtfully designed themed bedrooms in recognition of the diversity of the many immigrants that helped to forge the West and build our town.
