Nestled in the highly sought-after Ninemile Valley between the Ninemile Divide and Reservation Divide Ranges, this ranch is a secluded haven just 45± minutes to Missoula, home to the University of Montana and an airport. This property is part of a crucial undeveloped wildlife passage between the Rattlesnake Wilderness Area and Mission Range to the northeast and the Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness to the southwest. The 457± deeded acres, contiguous to Lolo National Forest for about a mile, boast breathtaking views, unparalleled privacy, and almost two miles of fishable Ninemile Creek frontage, creating a quintessential Montana retreat. Acreage ranges from 170± acres of timbered slopes to creek bottom, irrigated lawns, and about 130 acres of irrigated hay meadows. Wildlife traipsing through includes whitetail deer, elk, turkeys, grouse, sandhill cranes, and the occasional wolf. The stunning landscape is only bested by the improvements, including a 3 bedroom/2.5 bathroom 2,970± SF main home, 902± SF log guest cabin, a 12,000± SF barn/recreation center that sleeps 22 that includes a shop and vehicle storage, a rustic cabin with an outhouse, two pole-frame storage buildings, and a sporting clays course.
Remarks: High Meadow Mountain Ranch is 35 minutes from Missoula's airport and is located in the coveted upper Ninemile Valley. Ninemile Creek flows through this private 457+/- acre property for over 1.25 miles. Tastefully improved with home, barn, and guest home. Shares a 1-mile boundary with Lolo National Forest.
