Almost 4 acres, perched high above the Rattlesnake Valley, nestled among the privacy of whispering pines, awaits a rare Legacy home. Offered for the first time, this one owner haven is a classic mid-century home designed with light, space, and livability in mind. Expansive windows frame the forested setting, while thoughtful built-ins and a timeless mid century floor plan create a sense of functional comfort.
The main level welcomes you with a bright, spacious kitchen, two bedrooms, two baths, and a laundry area. A sunlit living room with a bay window and cozy fireplace invites gathering. The lower level extends the living space with three additional bedrooms, a generous family room with a second fireplace, and a walkout door that opens directly to the tranquil woods. A cold storage room offers wine storage and pantry shelving. Ready for your personal vision and remodeling touches, this private mountain retreat blends peaceful seclusion with convenience-just minutes from downtown Missoula. As an added bonus, you and the neighbors share a pool.
