Hidden Springs: Ada County's first master-planned community

Hidden Springs covers 1,844 acres in the Dry Creek Valley, in the foothills northwest of Boise. It began as Ada County's first master-planned community, with construction starting in 1998, and its town association says the drive to downtown Boise takes about 15 minutes. More than half the land is open space. Over 800 acres must stay undeveloped, and a conservation easement held by Ada County covers more than 988 acres. Because it's an unincorporated community rather than a city, the Census counts it as a census-designated place. The 2020 Census found 3,076 residents.

Buy My House purchases Hidden Springs homes as they are, without staging, showings or repairs. After a single walkthrough, we follow up with a written cash offer. Per our site, that normally takes no more than 24 hours. You can say no. Say yes, and you decide when to close, with no commission charged and the customary closing costs paid by us.

Hidden Springs homes in figures

There are two federal sources here: the 2020 decennial count and the ACS five-year sample ending in 2024. Because Hidden Springs isn't a city, no annual population estimate exists.

• Population: 3,076 at the 2020 Census. The ACS five-year estimate is about 3,380, but the two numbers come from different methods and shouldn't be read as a growth rate.
• A young housing stock: The median home was built in 2008. About 92% of units date from 2000 or later, roughly 43% from 2010 on, and essentially none from before 1980.
• Owner-occupied: Owners occupy about 87% of occupied homes.
• Prices: Median owner-occupied value in the ACS is close to $773,500, with a margin of error around $75,800.
• Commuting: Roughly 44% of employed residents spend at least half an hour getting to work.

Selling in Hidden Springs: local factors

The town association. Hidden Springs is governed by the Hidden Springs Town Association (HSTA), which owns the common areas and the open space deeded to it. Expect association assessments, architectural rules and transfer paperwork. Under Idaho Code §55-3205, HSTA owes you a no-charge statement of amounts owed no later than five business days after your written request.

A community-owned sewer system. Homes here are served by the Hidden Springs Sewer Company, which HSTA owns and operates along with a wastewater treatment facility and reclaimed-water irrigation. Sewer fees are billed separately from city utilities, so have a recent statement handy.

Conservation easement. The open space around the neighborhoods is permanently protected and open to the public on designated trails. It won't be developed, but it also means you can't expand onto neighboring land.

Newer homes still wear. Roofs, water heaters, decks and HVAC systems wear out. We buy homes that need those updates without asking you to make them first.

Estates and relocations. An executor selling a Hidden Springs home might be exempt from Idaho's seller disclosure under §55-2505, which is worth asking the estate's counsel about. We also buy vacant homes whose owners have already moved.

Taxes. Ada County lets owners pay the year's property tax in two halves, the first by December 20 and the second by June 20.
