Property Description
Lolo Creek borders one side, while wilderness and National Forest lands border 2 other sides, creating a remarkable sense of seclusion and a peaceful setting to call home. The 4 bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers approximately 3,000 square feet of living space, blending the character of a Montana mountain retreat with a variety of thoughtful features and updates.
Newer appliances, quartz countertops, large windows, and an atrium bring natural light into the home, while bamboo and ceramic tile flooring add warmth and character throughout. The walk-in tiled shower features Bluetooth audio for a touch of modern convenience, while the upper-level full bathroom showcases beautiful ceramic tile work. All 4 bedrooms are located on the upper level, including the light, bright, and open primary bedroom, where expansive views pour through a dramatic two-story window. Propane heat and retrofitted central air conditioning provide year-round comfort, and high-speed internet is available for those working remotely. The dedicated home office is truly a standout, featuring an approximately 15-foot wall-mounted work surface positioned to capture spectacular views down the Lolo Valley toward Idaho. Whether working remotely or simply enjoying the scenery, this space offers an inspiring place to spend your day. Step outside onto the back deck and take in the peaceful surroundings, with a trail leading to adjoining public lands just beyond your doorstep. Additional features include an impressive 30-gallon-per-minute well supported by a 1,200-gallon cistern, a septic system inspected and serviced in 2024, and high-speed internet availability. A 1,000-gallon leased propane tank serves the home. The newly constructed detached garage offers generous room for vehicles, recreational equipment, workshop space, and additional storage. Significant exterior improvements include new matching cement-board fire-resistant siding and new roofs on both the home and garage. The acreage has also been professionally thinned, with ladder fuels removed and defensible space established and maintained around the structures. Nature is right outside your door. Lolo Creek and the surrounding wilderness provide a beautiful backdrop for Montana wildlife, including deer, elk, black bear and bighorn sheep. Enjoy hiking and cross-country skiing opportunities accessible directly from the property, with no need to load up the car and head elsewhere to enjoy the outdoors. Despite its private mountain setting, Missoula is just a short drive away, offering a regional airport, major medical facilities, the University of Montana, and a vibrant selection of dining, shopping, arts, and entertainment.
If you have been searching for acreage, privacy, incredible scenery, and room to embrace the Montana lifestyle without sacrificing convenience, this one-of-a-kind retreat deserves a closer look.
