This Montana Homestead sits at the end of a private road on 1.86 wooded acres, directly across from the Blackfoot River and the K. Ross Toole Fishing Access. Towering pines create a private, park-like setting with raised garden beds, a stone-bordered garden, perennial Raspberries, BlackBerries and Strawberries, Lilacs, a partially fenced backyard with new 6- and 8-foot cedar privacy fencing with a fort and play structure, a fire pit, and a chicken coop and run. Inside wood floors lead to an open main level and brings the kitchen, dining, and living room together around a distinctive hearth wall, with three bedrooms and a full bath. The daylight walk-out lower level adds two more bedrooms, a full bath with a large storage closet, a den warmed by a new high-efficiency wood stove, and a spacious mudroom/laundry with its own exterior entry. Smart, well-planned storage throughout includes a pantry, under-stair storage, and generous closets, so everything has its place. Recent updates make this home move-in ready: central A/C, a new propane furnace, chimney, water heater, water filtration and softener, generator hookup, new stove/oven and dishwasher, new bedroom carpet, cedar privacy fencing, and new automatic garage doors. The detached 2-car garage includes a shop plus an unfinished upper level ready to finish for hobbies, a home gym, or extra storage. A metal roof, RV parking, a wood shed, and mountain views round out a property where you can garden, gather eggs, split firewood, and cast a line, all an easy drive up Hwy 200 from Missoula.
