Hike, bike, ski or just enjoy the views right out your back door at 13400 Balsamroot Road in Lolo, Montana. The opportunity to live at the end of the road, and adjacent to US Forest Service land has become far too rare in our five valley region. Located just two miles west of Lolo on Highway 12, Balsamroot Road is a quiet, private road where properties are rarely offered for sale. A five-minute drive to the end of the road brings you to this beautiful property teaming with wildlife and offering endless views. The home has been meticulously cared for and features a variety of gorgeous wood accents including maple and cherry flooring, custom maple cabinets and a walnut banister. The main level of the home is an open plan meaning the views from the large window are visible from every vantage. Kitchen appliances have all been updated, and the space is extra cozy in winter thanks to the high-end wood stove. Access to the decks on the back of the home, one covered, is via the glass French doors in the dining area. Attached to the deck is a hot tub with the most unbelievable views. Upstairs, the primary suite includes an en suite bathroom with an extra deep soaking tub and double shower, as well as dual vanity. And at the risk of being repetitious - don't miss the views from this room. They are extraordinary. There are two additional bedrooms on this level, as well as a second full bath. The fully-finished lower level provides access from the attached, two-car garage plus a fourth bedroom and full bath, and a large bonus space perfect for a playroom, exercise equipment, crafts or storage. Outside, the nearly 10-acre parcel is covered in wild flowers and has been improved with the addition of a 26 x 38 shop for storing equipment, and a wood shed in the back large enough to store wood for several seasons. The gas-forced-air furnace and central air conditioning ensure year-round indoor comfort, and the 1000 gallon propane tank is sized to take advantage of lower propane costs in the late summer months. The tour of this property is not complete without a walk up the hill behind the house - take in the views, listen to the quiet, and enjoy the flowers. It's a little slice of paradise in the mountains. For additional information or to schedule a showing, please contact Julie Gardner at (406) 532-9233 or your real estate professional.
