This single-family home in Malta, Montana, is a 2-bedroom, 2-bonus
room, 2-bathroom home built in 1956, offering a total of 2,080± square feet —
1,040± on the main floor and 1,040± in the partially finished basement. It has
been owned and lovingly cared for by the same family for an incredible 69
years. Over that time, they turned a house into a home, maintaining it with
care while adding thoughtful updates.
Features include original custom kitchen cabinets, custom built-ins throughout,
central A/C and forced-air heating, metal siding, gutters, two garage spaces,
white/off-white interior paint throughout, and hardwood floors beneath the main
floor carpeting. The roof is asphalt, and both electrical and plumbing systems
have been updated as needed. Both bathrooms have been remodeled — the main
floor features an accessible walk-in tub, updated lighting, mirror, vanity, and
cabinetry, along with an oversized linen closet. The basement bathroom is a ¾

surround with door and fixtures, and a fully mirrored medicine cabinet.

with huge picture windows overlooking the front yard, a great source of natural
light. There is an oversized coat closet off the entryway and shelving on the
half wall that borders the basement stairway. A wall separates the living room
from the kitchen/dining area, creating a hallway that leads to the main floor
bathroom. Off the main living room hallway, you’ll find two main floor
bedrooms, both with high windows that provide privacy while providing great
natural light. The primary bedroom features a touch plate switch that controls
lighting throughout most of the house. Both bedrooms offer generous closet
space, and one includes custom built-ins with shelving. In this closet, you can
also see the original hardwood floors still intact beneath the carpet on the main
floor only.
Around the corner from the living room hallway is the main floor bathroom,
which has been fully remodeled. It includes an accessible walk-in tub, updated
vanity, mirror, and cabinetry, with a large linen closet providing excellent
storage. Down the hall from the bathroom is the kitchen and dining area. The
kitchen offers an abundance of custom cabinet space and storage. All kitchen appliance are included with the
sale, there is a range, microwave, dishwasher, and refrigerator. From the
dining room, French doors lead out to a concrete patio. It a great space for entertaining during the
warmer months.
Basement Space: Even More Versatility!
Off the dining room, a stairway leads to the basement, where you’ll find a
large family room finished with wood wainscoting and a tiled ceiling. The
basement also includes two finished bonus rooms. While they do not have egress
windows, both rooms have good closet space and built-ins — one even includes a
built-in gun cabinet, and the other features a full sliding glass mirror closet
door.
The remodeled ¾ bathroom downstairs includes a new vanity, updated lighting, a mirror,
shower surround with door and fixtures, and a fully mirrored medicine cabinet.
The remaining basement square footage is made up of a utility/laundry room with
concrete floors and partially finished walls and ceiling. This space houses the
washer and dryer, forced-air furnace, an electrical panel, 2021 water heater,
and a leased water softener (leased month-to-month from Farmers and Ranchers). Additional
storage includes a built-in shelving unit, a closet, and under-stair storage. The house is heated by a forced air furnace
and has central A/C.
At the top of the basement stairs, just off the dining room, you can access one
of the attached garages. This garage is approximately 364± sq ft and is heated
by a ceiling-mounted natural gas heater. It includes pegboards, storage, and
access to both the back patio and the front double driveway. The second
attached garage, approximately 495± sq ft, is connected to the first and also
has a natural gas heater (not recently used but functional). It features
shelving, a large workbench with cupboards for storage, and two exterior doors
— one leading to the driveway and one to the backyard. Both garages are
insulated and heated, with working automatic garage door openers.
Corner Lot with Great Curb Appeal
The home sits on an oversized 83’ x 140’ corner lot. Most of the backyard
is enclosed with chain-link fencing, and it would be easy to fully enclose it
if desired. The west and south sections of the fence are set into a concrete
border. The backyard includes a 10’ x 12’ storage shed, ideal for storing lawn
equipment or seasonal items, as well as a smaller shed attached to the back of
the house that’s perfect for tools.
The yard is tastefully landscaped, with a large shade tree
and a row of established lilac bushes in the backyard. The front of the home
features a brick flower bed and a spacious front lawn. An underground sprinkler
system helps keep both the front and back yards green with ease. A double
driveway provides ample parking, and additional street parking is available
along the west side of the property.
