A 1941 original, near downtown Nampa.

Built in 1941 and set on a generous lot just south of downtown Nampa, this house has the kind of bones that reward a patient eye. The neighborhood is walkable, NNU is close by, and the streets around S Locust are the quiet, established kind that don't change much decade to decade.

Inside, the main level is straightforward and livable. Below it, an unfinished basement opens the door to a third room, a workspace, or whatever the next owner actually needs — the layout doesn't dictate the answer. One-car garage out back rounds things out.
