Such a cool cabin! This 20-acre timbered property offers privacy, a developed spring with an active DNRC water right and amazing views! The cabin features stainless appliances, a pellet stove, & newly insulated water lines beneath the home for Montana winters. A newer staircase leads to a loft bedroom with a closet and office nook, and a new 2025 deck extends the outdoor space. The owners went the extra mile this year with full fire mitigation to protect the property.
A separate 500 sq. ft. bunkhouse-style building includes 2 rooms, a bathroom, a small living area—partially finished and ready to tailor to your needs. The land is set up for animals with cross-fencing, loafing sheds, chicken spaces, & an RV hookup.
