INTRODUCTION Privada is committed to being a premier community in East Boise-Barber Valley – a place where aesthetics, architecture detail and landscape design matter. From the moment you pass through the elegant and prominent entryway, and notice the beautiful architectural walls designed to stand the test of time, and the generous tree-lined landscape drawing you in, you sense you have arrived at a special place. The Community of Privada lies in the heart of a high-plains setting, cradled by a natural rock amphitheater enveloped by the East Boise Foothills. The following is a summary of Privada’s Architectural Design Guidelines and Standards and Landscape Standards

(ADGS). Refer to the recorded CC&Rs and the complete ADGS documentation for the entire regulations and

guidelines to achieve the Community objectives and to moderate the design of all home construction within the

Community. The homesite owner should view the ADGS in the spirit of supportive guidelines that will help to protect

the unique characteristics of Privada to ensure a certain level of aesthetic quality – and not as a roadblock to

individual and creative design. The objective of the Privada Architectural Control Committee (ACC) through the

ADGS and CC&Rs are to protect, preserve and enhance the environment within the Community of Privada. It is the

responsibility of the homesite owner to provide this summary and the complete ADGS and CC&R materials to their

architect/designer and builder.

All materials can be downloaded and printed for review, and are available at the Community website: PrivadaViews.com. All building plans and landscape plans are to be reviewed and approved by the Privada Architectural Control Committee (ACC) prior to permitting and commencing construction. The Community of Privada lies within the City of Boise Hillside and Foothill Area Development ordinance (11-14-3.1A), and within the Wildland Urban Interface (WUI) Zone B, homeowners are to comply with Boise City Code (B.C.C.) 7-01-69. All builders are required to have recent demonstrated City of Boise Hillside Building experience.

Community Location

Privada encompasses an area of approximately 12 acres

overlooking the vast Barber Valley and surrounding East

Boise Foothills. The Community is located on the southern

slope of Via Privada Lane directly north of Warm Springs

Avenue. The Barber Valley Foothills terrain is

characterized by both gentle and dramatic slopes of

vegetated hillsides, rolling plateaus and valleys.

The site area is studded with sagebrush and numerous

and diverse types of native grass. Privada provides a one-

of-a-kind setting allowing nature and design to come

together in a beautiful setting.

The master site plan provides homesites that respond to

the sloping topography of the terrain offering panoramic

views in all directions.




‘QUALITY IN ARCHITECTURE’ OBJECTIVES The architecture at Privada strives to convey a strong sense of identity, style and place. The philosophy of Privada residential design goals are to encourage the creation of a homogenous and harmonious community expressed through compatible and high quality architectural design that aligns with the three approved Community architectural vernaculars (Modern, California Mission, Mediterranean) for the specific purpose:

▪ To enhance and protect the value, desirability and attractiveness of the entire property within its boundaries and to provide a strong Community identity;

▪ To construct quality custom homes which are harmonious with the natural foothills setting and with each other;

▪ To protect individual homeowner’s view and privacy, and to minimize the impact on each homesite's views as new homes are built within the Community;

▪ To preserve the privacy and tranquility of the Community setting; ▪ To preserve and enhance the natural environment and wildlife habitat within the property; ▪ To encourage sustainable building practices, including the use of carbon-sensitive, sustainable

materials where possible. ▪ To insure the design of each new residence will add to the overall character and quality of what makes

Privada desirable and a special Community for years to come.

Note: other architectural styles, that are complimentary and compatible may be approved on a case-by-case basis by the ACC. Contact the ACC in advance to discuss.
