Valnova: A New Kind of Foothills Living in Eagle Idaho
If you’ve been watching growth along Highway 16 and the north end of Eagle, you’ve heard the buzz about Valnova—a next‑generation, master‑planned community taking shape in the Eagle foothills. I’ve been tracking it for my buyers. As a result, it’s poised to be a Treasure Valley standout.
Where is Valnova?
Valnova is planned in the foothills north of Beacon Light, between Highway 16 and Willow Creek Road. From there, you’re minutes from downtown Eagle and Star. Boise and Emmett are an easy jump. You still feel tucked into open space and rolling hills. It’s the rare combo of “close to everything” and “away from it all.”
Scale, Vision, and Open Space
This isn’t a small subdivision; it’s a multi‑decade, big‑vision plan across roughly 6,000 acres. Early materials highlight significant preserved open space, miles of trails, and a foothills‑forward design that protects view corridors and natural character as the community grows. Expect a phased rollout over many years. As the phases unfold, infrastructure and amenities will scale thoughtfully as neighborhoods come online. The goal is simple: preserve the beauty and openness of the foothills while improving daily access.
Amenities Built for Everyday Living
Valnova reads like a resort checklist. Plans call for a community park and clubhouse, pools and outdoor spas, pickleball and tennis courts, and miles of paths that tie into native open space. The Village Center brings shops, dining, and everyday services together—so weeknight errands feel like a stroll, not a drive. You’ll also hear about Valnova Lake for beach‑style fun and community gatherings. Overall, the emphasis stays on connecting residents to the outdoors right from the front door.
Neighborhoods, Builders, and Home Options
Multiple respected Treasure Valley builders are participating, which means variety in floor plans, architectural styles, and price points. Early phases are expected to include low‑maintenance homes, semi‑custom options, and custom builds on larger view lots. If you like to compare elevations, layouts, and finish packages before you decide, Valnova will have options for first‑time buyers, move‑up owners, and downsizers alike.
Is Valnova the Perfect Fit for You?
Valnova prioritizes three strengths: access to nature, day-to-day convenience, and a location that supports lifestyle and long-term value. The foothills setting pairs with a robust amenity plan. A village-style core makes daily life easier. If you’re considering a new build in the next 6–24 months—or you want to be early for future releases—put this one on your list.
