36 Deep Creek Bench Rd, Livingston, MT 59047

There is a very particular area of Paradise Valley which lies to the east of the Yellowstone River and in between the Pine Creek and Suce Creek drainages that is unquestionably some of the most sought after real estate in Montana, with spectacular mountains, cattle ranches that have been held for generations, and a sense of place that only comes with a community that knows one another. Set in the heart of this famed area, on ten secluded acres, sits the Bench House, as the family call it. It has been owned by them for over thirty years and its open, easy floor plan has made it the ideal place for big gatherings in summer or quiet retreats in the winter when the snow flies. The picture windows in the comfortable living room are filled with the mighty Absaroka-Beartooth mountains, rising majestically to over 10,000' above the valley floor. There are two master suites, one on each side of the house with an additional two bedrooms and two baths. The roomy kitchen and dining area have the same sensational views. A triple attached garage has loads of room for toys, cars and sports equipment. Outside, in the grassy meadows there are stands of aspen and conifers where the deer bed down in the summer for shade, and vistas of snow capped peaks marching down the valley to Yellowstone National Park. Hiking trails into the wilderness are minutes away as are the world class blue ribbon Spring Creeks just a mile or so down the road. The historic Chico Hot Springs and Hotel are close by, as is the old western town of Livingston. Bozeman and its international airport is about forty five minutes away on I90. Peaceful. Private. An absence of chaos. This feels like the pre-Costner Montana, the old Montana most of us are looking for. Lovingly maintained and lived in over the years, the Bench House is ready for new owners to carry on its legacy. Few people move once they're here, so places like this don't come on the market too often. Call now for an appointment to take a look or arrange a video tour.
