Beautiful Colonial Revival home on corner lot built in 1916 by L. O. Naylor, the Studebaker dealership owner of Eagle Rock, before the city was renamed Idaho Falls. Full of rich history, it's on the National Register of Historic Places as well as listed on the Idaho Falls 'Historical Walk of Homes' with all the charm and incredible craftsmanship you'd expect. The pioneer attourney, William S. Holden, lived here when he was a key person in bringing the INL to the area and the contract for the INL was signed in April of 1949 in the kitchen of this very house! Located in the 'Original Townsite' subdivision, it is a short walk to down town, the Museum of Idaho and the Green Belt along the Snake River.
The exterior features a portico with columns & fanlight, four sidelights and beveled wood siding with corner boards. House was professionally painted in 2007. There is a covered patio and deck in the large private backyard surrounded by a vinyl fence. Mature trees & years of landscaping reach their peak in the Spring & Summer months, perfect for entertaining. Automatic sprinkler system, recently fitted with new sprinkler heads & pipes. The front door opens into an elegant foyer and wide graceful staircase. Also on the main floor:
