Executive Country Home on Private Acreage Near Missoula, Mt

Description

AMAZING, PRIVATE, GATED RETREAT in the coveted Nine Mile area of the Western Montana mountains! This stunning 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom residence is a true masterpiece of contemporary farmhouse design; where modern luxury and comfort meet rustic charm and practicality on nearly 10 acres of mixed forest and meadow landscape. Step inside to discover a spacious interior thoughtfully designed to blend elegance with the warmth of country living. Large picture windows and new skylights throughout provide passive solar, while the incredible forest views give the sense of ‘bringing the outdoors in’! A large cook’s kitchen provides newer appliances, spacious granite countertops and breakfast bar area; a dining space, a large pantry, and two access doors to the wraparound deck for easy grilling & entertaining a crowd. The focal point of the entire kitchen area is an antique wood cookstove, providing not just beauty and continuity of the farmhouse theme, but also functionality. A laundry/sink/storage/extra refrigerator/and half bath also adjoin the kitchen area. Step down into the living room and surround yourself with the combination of attractive built-in cabinetry around the large fireplace, open beam ceiling, and huge picture window. Enhanced with the natural cooling of mature forest trees to shade the summer sun, it also brings the warmth of a woodstove insert and ample firewood storage for Montana mountain winters. The main floor continues into TWO master suites. The huge primary ensuite comes complete with walk-in closets, large bathroom with partial updates, large library, private forest views and walk-out deck; and sauna and exercise room w/plumbing for a jacuzzi tub. The secondary large ensuite also provides walk-in closet, bathroom, library, and peaceful forest and garden window views. Upstairs to two more very large and well-appointed bedrooms; both with large walk-in closets and expansive play/relax areas. A large bathroom is positioned between these two bedrooms. Every part of this home has been carefully designed to feel the experience and security of HOME! In every room. Moving on to outside, the theme continues with expansive decks that lead to: a detached office/studio for working from home (Starlink provides excellent internet connectivity; there are also other excellent internet options).

Like the thoughts of food security and private room to roam? THREE garden areas: a showpiece (and productive!) fenced raised garden area, a fenced 17-tree orchard; a ¼ acre large, fenced garden; and a beautiful greenhouse. Very large firepit area. 2 dog runs. A chicken coop and fenced run for eggs every day, if you desire! Have frequent ‘overflow’ visitors or family? There’s a large, graveled RV parking with full hookups (20/30/50 amp) and a firepit and private area. The list of amenities just doesn’t quit: detached 2-car garage, several out-buildings for storage or convert to your needs; backup generator, and a new well with 45 gpm output. Plenty of space that could support other outbuildings or be fenced for further livestock. New updates within the last 3 years: new roof/skylights/gutters, new cement board siding; new interior and exterior paint, and new floors throughout.

Although it seems that this masterpiece of an offering is in ‘the middle of nowhere’, it is situated only a ½ hour from Missoula, MT, with it’s two state-of-the-art hospitals, international airport, University of Montana, and all the shopping/dining/cultural events one could desire. Very, very close to Forest Service land and parks, which provide hundreds of miles of mountain biking, riding, hiking, hunting, fishing, and outdoor activity opportunities. What a find! Welcome to Western Montana!
