Azure Montana skies frame this 20+ acre Stillwater River estate, where rugged bluffs, natural springs, and wide-open space create a truly private sanctuary. A spring-fed pond welcomes you to a fully renovated farmhouse featuring 4 bedrooms, 3 baths, and a bonus room with a private entrance—ideal for guests, a studio, or weekend retreats. Expansive interiors blend timeless character with quality finishes, custom details, and abundant natural light.
Outside, park-like grounds transition into open pasture, a pine-shaded grove reminiscent of a private campground, and generous frontage along the Stillwater River. The property also features a substantial outbuilding with two heated shop/garage bays, a cozy man cave, mezzanine storage, a covered RV canopy, and a large open-ended equipment barn.
From spring-fed ponds and a rock quarry to pine groves and riverbanks, this property offers a rare combination of privacy, versatility, and authentic Montana living.
