This cabin feels like something out of a story. Fully furnished, turn-key, and nestled into the Gallatin Forest, this is a rare opportunity to own a cabin on a Forest Service Lease! This property is 1BD/1BA, 670 sqft on . 5 acres. As you walk through the door, you are greeted with a classic Montana cabin feel. The cabin was fully remodeled by the previous owner with tasteful finishes such as beautiful hardwood floors, a stone fireplace, new cabinetry, and wood throughout the interior. On the front porch, two sitting areas allow you to capture the morning sun. In the evenings, you can sit on your second patio located in the back which sits next to Purdy Creek. Hear the live water running, birds chirping and leaves rustling as you listen to the creek. This location places you 3 minutes to the Gallatin River, 45 minutes to Bozeman, and 25 minutes to Big Sky. This cabin is within walking distance of Storm Castle Trailhead and surrounding trail systems. ANY SALE MUST BE APPROVED BY THE FOREST SERVICE. The Fee for 2024 was $3,700 (the fee goes up slightly each year). Buyers must show they are US citizens and have a primary residence other than this cabin.
