The Treasure Valley has always known how to build a house. What's harder to find is a home that knows how to live.
Biltmore Co. has spent more than 30 years figuring out the difference. Their Spring 2026 Parade of Homes entry, The Alexandria, made the answer impossible to ignore. Honored with Best Exterior Design and Best Overall, the Eagle residence in Terra View set a new standard for what a custom home in this valley can be.
The rooms do the talking.
A second kitchen with passthrough access to an outdoor loggia. Built-in heaters and a full bar extending the gathering space year-round. Private ensuites in every bedroom, each with its own walk-in closet. A bonus room upstairs opening to a shared balcony with both covered and open-air space and panoramic views of the surrounding landscape. Outside, an in-ground pool, a sand beach, and a firepit that makes the backyard feel less like a yard and more like a destination. Direct park access means a paddleboard outing is closer than you'd think.
What holds it together isn't any single feature. It's the same thing that runs through the best rooms in the best homes — materials chosen with intention, spaces designed for actual use, and the discipline to let each room be exactly what it needs to be. Some rooms gather. Some rooms rest. Some rooms play. The best homes make room for all of it.
The Alexandria is Biltmore's largest and most ambitious parade home to date. It's also a useful reminder that in a valley growing as fast as this one, the best homes aren't just built for today.
They're built to stay. To learn more visit biltmoreco.com
