Eaglewood subdivision in Rexburg, Idaho
The ground: an established bench address with a new neighbor
The recorded facts first. Eaglewood Addition Division No. 1 was platted by Eaglewood Enterprises, LLC with the Neville Living Trust and recorded September 3, 2002 (instrument 297889): 27.69 acres, 51 lots between 550 South and East 7th South. The plat itself settles several buyer questions: the subdivision lies in FEMA Zone X (outside the 500-year floodplain); lots receive city municipal water and no irrigation water right; and lots backing East 7th South are banned from taking direct vehicular access onto it — a traffic-design choice recorded on the face of the plat. Since 2024, the boundary to the east is Alpine Heights, whose plat names Eaglewood as its western neighbor — covered by its own guide on this site.
Homes and lots: the county-record profile
- 59 homes in assessor detail, built 2004–2019 — 40 of them in the 2005–2007 wave, then a long tail of infill (September 2026 records).
- 1,573–5,569 sq ft above grade, 2–6 bedrooms, basements in 57 of 59 — from modest to among the largest homes this site has profiled in any Rexburg subdivision.
- Assessed values ran to about $986,000 in the September 2026 pull — a taxation number, not a price, quoted for scale.
- Zoning is LDR1/LDR2 with typical lots around a third to half an acre.
Covenants: two regimes, both actually read
Eaglewood's covenant story took the name-index route to untangle — the master declaration was recorded with a blank description and only surfaces under the developer's name. The chain: a 2003 declaration (304975, re-recorded as 305005), then the governing "Amended Version July 2008," recorded July 29, 2009 (instrument 355598, read in full). What it establishes for the single-family lots:
- No homeowners association and no dues. Compliance runs through an Architectural Control Committee that must approve plans (with an "Approved Plan" stamp) and the general contractor — homes here are built by pre-approved professional contractors, not owner-builders.
- Size minimums with teeth: single-story ≥1,800 sq ft finished on the ground floor; two-story ≥2,600 on the top two levels plus ≥1,200 on the ground; split-entry ≥3,300 combined. Stick-built only — mobile, manufactured, modular, log, and log-siding homes are all expressly out.
- Exterior standards: at least 50% of the exterior (and 75% of the street-facing elevation) in brick, stone, or stucco; the rest in maintenance-free material — no painted siding; composition or shake roofing (metal only by written exception, and only if it looks like shingles); dominant colors must be natural earth tones.
- Setbacks beyond city code: roof drip-lines at least 25 feet off the front and rear lot lines, 10 feet off sides, nothing within 37 feet of the street curb — and garages, steps, porches, and patios count as structure.
- Build it and finish it: full construction and landscaping within 24 months of closing; no temporary structures; no detached enclosed outbuildings and no carports — a sharp contrast with the shop-friendly rural subdivisions across town.
- Term and change: 20 years from recording with automatic ten-year extensions; amendment takes 70% of lot owners. The declaration also requires every resale to deliver a copy of the covenants at closing — so expect to sign for them.
The townhouse pocket is a different regime. Block 1, Lots 7–18 — each split into A and B units, up to 24 townhouses — is expressly excluded from the single-family declaration and runs on its own 2012 instrument (376340): the Eaglewood Estate Townhouse Owner's Association administers a shared exterior scheme, with common expenses for landscaping, snow removal, and management. Each townhouse owner maintains their own roof, walls, windows, and doors to the approved scheme. No dollar amounts appear in the recorded text — a townhouse buyer should get the current budget from the association during due diligence.
Covenants with no association behind them still bind you. The difference is that your neighbors do the enforcing instead of a board, which can be friendlier or a good deal worse.

Flood, utilities, and broadband
- Flood: Zone X per the plat sheet; no GIS flood-layer intersect (September 2026); per-property determination still standard.
- Water: city municipal water certified on the plat; no irrigation district, no irrigation right; a city well lot is platted inside the subdivision.
- Broadband: per provider-filed FCC data (December 2025 filings, pulled September 2026), every sampled address shows Silver Star fiber up to 1,000/200 Mbps and Sparklight cable up to 1,000/50 Mbps, plus Starlink and fixed-wireless options. Provider filings, not measurements — verify plans at the address.
What Eaglewood costs: the honest version
Idaho is a non-disclosure state — sale prices are not public record. Sourced context for the market this subdivision trades in:
- $434,801 — Zillow's modeled typical home value for the city of Rexburg (ZHVI — an estimate, not a sale record; up 5.0% from a year earlier) (Zillow Research ZHVI, July 2026)
- $633,950 — median listing price, Rexburg metro area (Madison + Fremont counties), up from $599,500 a year earlier (Realtor.com via FRED, August 2026)
- 86 days — median days on market, Rexburg metro area — up from 44 days in April 2026 and 65 days in August 2025, a market steadily slowing (Realtor.com via FRED, August 2026)
The geography caveat, honestly: city-and-metro series do not describe a bench subdivision whose homes reach 5,500 square feet — treat the numbers as market context, never as an Eaglewood price. Subdivision-level sale data will be added from MLS records once access and publication permissions are in place. The comparison a buyer actually faces here: an established Eaglewood resale against new construction one boundary east in Alpine Heights — same bench, different rulebooks, and this site has read both.
Common questions about Eaglewood
Where is Eaglewood in Rexburg?
On the southeast bench between 550 South and East 7th South, west of 4th East — bordered by Sherwood Hills and Rolling Hills Estates to the north and, since 2024, by the new Alpine Heights subdivision on its east side. Streets are Talon Drive, Eaglewood Drive, Eaglewood Park Drive, Eagle Court, Eagle Summit, and South 4th East.
How old are Eaglewood homes and how big are they?
The plat recorded in September 2002, and county assessor detail (September 2026) shows 59 homes built 2004–2019 — the main wave in 2005–2007. Above-grade space runs 1,573 to 5,569 square feet with 57 of 59 homes carrying basements, which makes Eaglewood one of the widest size ranges on the bench.
What do homes in Eaglewood cost?
Idaho is a non-disclosure state — sale prices are not public record — so this page quotes no sold prices. County assessed values on Eaglewood parcels reached about $986,000 in the September 2026 pull; assessed value is a taxation number, not a price. For scale, Zillow's modeled typical value for all of Rexburg was $434,801 in July 2026 (an estimate, not a sale record) — and a bench subdivision with 5,000-square-foot homes does not resemble a city-wide typical value.
Does Eaglewood have an HOA?
Two answers, because Eaglewood has two recorded covenant regimes. The single-family lots: no — the governing declaration (the July 2008 amended version, recorded 2009 as instrument 355598) creates an Architectural Control Committee but no homeowners association and no dues. The townhouse pocket (Block 1, Lots 7–18, up to 24 units): yes — a 2012 declaration (instrument 376340) administers it through the Eaglewood Estate Townhouse Owner’s Association, with shared costs for landscaping, snow removal, and management. No dollar amount appears in any recorded text — ask the association for current figures on a townhouse purchase.
What do the single-family covenants require?
The governing text is strict and specific: homes built by a pre-approved professional general contractor; minimum finished sizes of 1,800 square feet on the ground floor for a single-story, 2,600 on the top two levels for a two-story (with 1,200 on the ground), 3,300 combined for a split-entry; an attached two-car garage of at least 24 by 24 feet with carports banned; at least 50% brick, stone, or stucco on the exterior (75% of the street frontage) with no painted siding; composition or shake roofing; earth-tone colors; full construction and landscaping within 24 months of closing; and no detached enclosed outbuildings. Home businesses are expressly discouraged and generally not permitted.
Can you rent out a home in Eaglewood?
The recorded single-family declaration contains no leasing restriction in the text read for this page — its rules govern construction and use, not tenancy. As always, anything recorded after this page’s date would bind, so verify the current record through a title company at purchase.
Is Eaglewood in a flood zone?
The recorded plat states the subdivision lies in FEMA Zone X, outside the 500-year floodplain, and no flood feature intersects it in the county GIS flood layer (September 2026). A per-property determination at purchase remains standard.
What schools serve Eaglewood?
Madison School District 321, per the county GIS school-district layer (September 2026). Attendance boundaries can change — confirm the current zone for a specific address with District 321.
