Premiere Beach House, Family Friendly, West Lakeshore Drive | House in coeur d'alene, ID
5 Bedroom House with Parking, Ocean View and Sports
Awaken to a sun-drenched bedroom view of Lake Coeur d'Alene. Sip morning coffee in one of the lake view sun rooms. Take an early, refreshing dip in the lake, have lunch at a sidewalk cafe or the incomparable Hudson's Hamburgers, and plan a day at the beach or seeing the sights. Later, walk across the park for a supper cruise or an evening of downtown dining and entertainment; then stroll home with the moonlight reflecting across the shimmering water. Fall asleep, stars shining through the skylight. The recently refurbished Gumprecht House is situated on the shore of beautiful Lake Coeur d' Alene in picturesque Northern Idaho. It offers spectacular views with comfortable and spacious family-friendly accommodations, plus close proximity to downtown shops and restaurants as well as the amenities of the famous Coeur d'Alene Resort. Enjoy water sports, lake cruises, bike trails, hiking, golf, antique shops, museums, snow skiing and nature's beauty.
History:: The Gumprecht House sits on property once part of Fort Sherman, founded in 1878 to protect settlers, one of a string of forts built in response to the 1876 Custer massacre. After the fort was disbanded, the property was auctioned off. It was then subdivided in 1905. The lot was purchased in 1906 by the Nevers family and the house built in 1907. It was the first private beachfront house, had the pick of the lots and, consequently, an unsurpassed view. For many years the house was occupied, then owned, by the Graue family who graciously allowed the Gumprechts and others to use the beach. The Gumprecht family acquired the property in 1977 and extensively remodeled in 1981. Elderly grandchildren of the original owner knocked on the door in 1982 to tour the changes and warmly approved. One of them had actually been born in the original master bedroom. They had all passed by the house on annual summer visits to Coeur d'Alene but had not been in the house since before 1920.
Bike Storage: Bikers should like our property as there is a side entrance that proceeds directly to the finished basement which is suitable for keeping their bikes. There is a bathroom and shower in the basement as well that could be useful for runners or others. The 24-mile Centennial trail passes directly in front of the house. And, yes, we have a large pasta pot.
Family room & game room: To provide a break from the elegant main floor spaces the back porch was enclosed years ago, creating a casual and comfortable family area just off the kitchen and breakfast nook. It contains a Big Screen HDTV, Blu-ray player, Xbox and DVDs as well as WiFi. See an earlier description of the game room located in the basement. We aim to accommodate families with children so, in addition to the game room with Wii, foosball, air hockey we provide a pack-n-play, high chair, stroller, 3 booster chairs, coloring books and crayons, board games, dollies, toy trucks, blocks, legos, giant legos, etc. Kids always love it and can whoop it up all they want with minimal disturbance of adults. For the elders, the West sunroom has a TV and blu ray, with French doors that can be closed to provide peace and quiet.
We are intending to accommodate families and other responsible groups. Bad experience has taught us that we do not wish to rent to groups of young men. House parties are forbidden by Vrbo unless expressly authorized.
A word about beach access. Although the beach in front of the house down to the summer waterline is privately owned by Dr Gumprecht, he has always allowed well-behaved members of the general public to use it. This has been true of this particular beach for at least 90 years. However, if there is a need to rope off a portion of the beach property, there is yellow nylon rope and stakes stored inside the front door closet for that purpose.
