What’s being built in Eagle, and where
Eagle’s new construction covers a wide range of price points. You can find townhomes, standard-lot single-family neighborhoods, foothills estates and acreage, sometimes a few miles apart. I’ve worked in and around Eagle Ridge, and the thing I tell buyers first is that “new construction in Eagle” covers very different products.
Here’s the scale. Build Idaho’s Eagle review counted 438 new-home sales in the period it covered, with a median new-home price of $769,500, or $343.61 per square foot (Build Idaho, January 9, 2026). The subdivisions with the most sales in that review were:
- Eagle Ridge: 59 sales, median $461,200
- Skyview: 54 sales, median $394,150
- Estrada Village: 42 sales, median $679,800
- Stags Crossing: 42 sales, median $1,165,950
(All Build Idaho, January 9, 2026.) Those figures cover the period before that report, not 2026 to date. Eagle’s 2026 new-home sales count isn’t something I have a verified number for, so I won’t guess at one.
The foothills: Sagehill. The proposal I get asked about most is Sagehill: 200 single-family homes on 700+ acres west of Idaho 55, next to Avimor, from developer Sage Investment Partners. Reported lot sizes run from one-third of an acre to 2 acres, about 336 acres are constrained by slope or habitat, and the plan describes a roughly 10-year buildout (Idaho Statesman, retrieved August 2026). One honest caveat: I couldn’t confirm the approval date from the coverage I have, so treat Sagehill as a reported plan and check its current status with the City of Eagle before making any decision around it.

A good example of why I say “check with the builder”: on the same day, Toll Brothers’ own site listed Carrara Estates from $904,995 and Torrente from $549,995 (Toll Brothers, accessed Aug 26, 2026). That’s a different Carrara figure than Build Idaho’s. Neither is wrong, necessarily; listing sites update on different schedules and may describe different plans. The builder’s current price sheet is the one that counts.
How new construction is behaving in Eagle right now
This is the part of Eagle that’s different from the rest of the valley. Homes here are taking longer to sell.
Boise Regional REALTORS’ July 2026 stat sheet noted that Eagle homes sit on the market longer than other Ada County cities (Boise Regional REALTORS, July 2026). In August, BRR reported Eagle’s average days on market at 40, compared with 22 in Boise, 41 in Kuna and 47 in Star (Boise Regional REALTORS, August 2026). So Eagle isn’t the slowest every month, but it’s consistently slower than Boise. Over the three months ending July 2026, Redfin reported a median sale price of $875,000, up 5.0%, with a median 53 days on market, up from 37 a year earlier. Homes sold for 98.7% of list price on average, and 12.4% sold above list (Redfin, three months ending July 2026). Those figures cover new and resale homes together.
Across Ada County as a whole, new construction sold more slowly than resale in August 2026: a median 54 days on market for new homes against 30 for resale, with 3.4 months of supply against 1.9 (Boise Regional REALTORS, August 2026).
Put plainly, as of these reports: prices in Eagle were still up year over year, but homes were sitting longer and fewer were selling above list. That’s current data, not a forecast. It could look different by the time you read this, which is why every number here has a date on it.
What I’d watch as a builder-turned-agent
When homes take longer to sell, buyers usually get more time and more room to ask. Here’s what I’d do with it if it were me, especially in the upper price bands:
- Ask about the whole package, not just the price. Builders often prefer incentives (closing costs, a rate buydown, included upgrades) to a lower base price, because the base price sets their comparable sales. My builder incentives guide walks through how to compare offers.
- Look hard at lot premiums. In Eagle, the lot can be a big share of the price, especially on view or foothills lots. Ask what the premium is and what makes that lot worth it.
- Compare finished homes against to-be-built ones. A home that’s already finished and waiting is a different conversation for the builder than one you’d start from scratch.
- Read the contract. Builder contracts are written by the builder. I go through what to look for in do I need a realtor for new construction.
None of this guarantees a builder will say yes. It just means it’s a fair time to ask good questions. One buyer I helped put it simply: “We had an easy negotiation on a beautiful, brand new built home and then the rest of the process was seamless.” — Michael M

Thinking about living here?
Eagle is in the West Ada School District, with Eagle High School in the city, and day-to-day life in the foothills is different from life closer to downtown Eagle. If you’re relocating, I’d honestly suggest renting first so you can really get to know the Treasure Valley before choosing where to build. My living in Eagle guide covers the rest.
