405 Highway 221, Choteau, MT 59422

Welcome to Painted Horseshoe Ranch, located just outside of Choteau in the foothills of the Rocky Mountain Front. At one time, this 21 acre property was home to a very successful breeding operation of horses known and sold all over the US. The 12,000SF INDOOR ROPING ARENA is set up perfectly to host everything from auctions and breeder sales to shows. The crows nest and heated office allow for a variety of performance events such as rodeo and/or 4-H. Multiple pens surrounding this arena will keep stock separated until ready for use. This arena was built in 1992 and measures 80x150ft. It has power and insulation and is set up for propane infra-red heaters in the ceiling with power boxes on each beam. Overhead clearance measures 16ft with three- 10x10 overhead doors, one- 14x14 auto-overhead door, and a 24x150ft fenced lean-to extending along the east side of the building. The entire property is fenced and cross fenced including approx 2500SF OF CONTINUOUS STEEL FENCING with 10FT, 4.5" steel posts. There is no shortage of water for your animals here with 7 HEATED AUTO-STOCK WATERERS and 9 FROST-FREE HYDRANTS positioned around the property. The 3000SF HAY BARN was built in 2014 and offers 18ft overhead clearance with two- 16x16ft pull-through overhead doors. A 100x200FT OUTDOOR ARENA is located just east of this barn. A very nice HEATED SHOP sits right next to the house and features foam insulation, concrete floors, power, and an additional 12x41ft heated and insulated lean-to on the east side. It's not just about the horses here, however! There's also plenty of room for the family in the comfortable 2968SF ranch house that has been lovingly maintained. Gorgeous upgrades in the kitchen and main living space stand out including vaulted cedar ceilings, beautiful granite countertops and custom mountainscape backsplash, hickory soft-close cabinets and drawers with copper inlay, hammered copper undermount sink, and genuine hardwood floors. All of this opens onto a 300SF deck on the west side of the home to extend your entertaining outdoors with a view of the mountains. Downstairs, in the fully-finished daylight basement, you will find a beautiful custom built wet-bar, family room, a dedicated workout room, a bathroom, and an additional non-conforming bedroom for guests. Park your vehicles in comfort in the insulated and heated, 1040SF attached garage. All of this is protected by 8 security cameras on property and an alarm system for the home. Located only about 5 minutes east of Choteau, this is an equine facility perfectly positioned for a multitude of uses and listed at a great price. There is so much potential here - it is one you will not want to miss! Listed by Jen Barnett.
