Paul Knighton and Tina DeBoer, the MORE Realty team of acreage specialists: 20 and 20+ years in real estate, about 750 homes combined
Homes on an acre or more, across the Treasure Valley.
Tina DeBoer, Realtor, and Paul Knighton, Principal Broker (Oregon) / Associate Broker (Idaho) at MORE Realty, are the local guide to homes on an acre or more across the Treasure Valley. They represents buyers and sellers of acreage in all nine cities the site covers: Boise, Eagle, Meridian, Star, Middleton, Nampa, Kuna, Caldwell, and Marsing. From one-acre large lots near town to hobby farms and mini-ranches out on the valley floor, the focus here is what acreage living really takes: space, privacy, room for animals, gardens, shops, and the wells, septic, and zoning that come with land.

The short answer
What counts as acreage in the Treasure Valley?
Acreage here means a home on one acre or more: an acre is 43,560 square feet, and it is the line where a property stops being a lot and starts being land. That one-acre threshold unlocks what buyers say they want most: space, privacy, room for animals, a garden that matters, a shop for the toys, and neighbors you cannot hear.
- Space and privacy. Room between you and the next driveway.
- Animals. Horses, goats, chickens, or a small herd, zoning allowing.
- Gardens and orchards. Room to grow what a raised bed cannot.
- Shops and sheds. A real shop, a barn, an RV, the tractor.
- No HOA crowding. Most acreage sits outside subdivision rules.
- Wells and water. Private water, septic, and often irrigation.
