Home prices range widely for a mix of styles
Ranch-style homes, cottages and bungalows are the most common options in Sunset. Most homes date back to the 1950s, ‘60s and ‘70s, but you’ll also find some New Traditional houses from the 21st century. Because of this mix, the neighborhood has a wide price range. “It’s just such an eclectic, special little neighborhood,” says Suzanne Hanrahan, a Realtor at Silvercreek Realty Group with six years of experience. “It can go from, I would say, a $600,000 house to a $3 million house next door.” While that broad range is the reality here, most homes fall somewhere between the upper $300,000s and mid-$900,000s.
Smaller homes like ranch styles are easy to find in the neighborhood.
You can find modern, traditional and prairie style homes in many areas.

Plenty of parks and trails for nature lovers
Parks and trails in and around the neighborhood make it easy to enjoy Idaho’s outdoors. “The people that live in that neighborhood are typically outdoorsy people. They like to ride their bikes. They like to walk. They like the Foothills that are pretty accessible,” Hanrahan says. The Foothills feature a vast network of trails, with over 190 miles for hiking, biking or horseback riding, and you can start your adventure from the trailheads on 36th Street or Ussery Street . Sunset Park is in the center of the community and has basketball courts, tennis courts, a playground and open fields.
