Remarks: Live the Montana dream while being right in town. This home sits on a stunning 7.61 acres with privacy, a park-like backyard, and several acres of mature timber. Upon entering the property you will be greeted by a red barn perfect for your tools, gear and animals. The barn sits within a pasture fully enclosed by a quintessential white fence. As you enter this timeless home, you are greeted with soaring vaulted ceilings, neutral decor, an open floor plan and a stunning focal gas fireplace in the living area. Almost all one level living, there is a large private master suite with access to the newly constructed (2018) back deck and an oversized master bath and closet. On the other side of the home there are two perfectly sized bedrooms and a nice sized full bathroom. The open kitchen is bright and spacious with a large area for your oversized dining table. Perfect for entertaining. The upper level has an extra living space and bedroom. Enjoy hiking on your own private property right from your backyard up the hill (where there is room to build more!), plant in your fenced garden with custom raised garden beds and have bonfires year round in your beautiful fire pit with log seating. Underground sprinklers keep the landscaped backyard looking pristine all summer long. This home has it all right in the desirable Big Flat area.
