"After 16 happy years here on the Rural Revolution homestead, we are ready to move on.

Why? Because with just the two of us, the house is simply too big. This is a home for a growing family, not a couple whose children have grown and moved out.

This is the homestead featured prominently in such publications as Backwoods Home Magazine, Self-Reliance Magazine, Countryside, and other leading rural-living magazines.

If you're looking for a self-sufficient homestead in beautiful North Idaho, consider making our home yours.

(Please note, we're still in the process of renovation. Keep this in mind if you're an early viewer.)

Here are some of the amenities the property offers:
  • 20 acres, fenced and cross-fenced (two five-acre pastures on one side of house, eight acres in partial woods on the other side of the house, two acres around house/barns)
  • 3600 square-foot home (not counting an inside loft of another 300 sq. ft.)
  • Four bedrooms, two baths (additional bedrooms could be created from existing spaces)
  • On-demand hot water heater

  • 30 gpm well, 610 ft. deep (static level 450 ft.); brand-new 5-gpm well pump installed June 2017

  • 32x70 fenced corral adjacent to animal pens
  • 25x30 ft. shop with concrete floor and double exterior doors attached to machine shed
