There is a quiet kind of beauty here, the kind that reveals itself in golden evening light, the sound of the river nearby, and the feeling of living somewhere truly grounded in the Montana landscape. Situated on 1.38 private acres in the coveted Target Range area of Missoula, this beautifully cared for 2,500 square foot home borders Kelly Island State Park and sits within walking distance of Kelly Island Fishing Access Site, offering direct connection to trails, river corridors, and protected open space. Inside, the home offers four bedrooms upstairs, two full upper level bathrooms, and a main level powder bath within a floor plan designed for comfort and long term livability. Thoughtful updates have elevated the home’s everyday experience, including a full kitchen remodel with custom cabinetry, Calacatta Lazzia quartz countertops, Bosch appliances, updated lighting, retextured walls, and an expanded opening to the dining area that creates a brighter and more natural gathering space. White oak hardwood flooring throughout the main level, a renovated primary bath, fireplace and a spacious walk-in closet in the primary suite further enhance the home’s warmth and functionality. The exterior reflects the same level of care and intentional improvement. A two car garage adds practical convenience, while a fully customized she-shed creates an ideal office, studio, or retreat with heat, power, wood ceiling detail, finished walls, and flooring. Raised garden beds, enclosed garden space, privacy fencing, and a Bullfrog hot tub create multiple opportunities for outdoor enjoyment. The exterior was professionally painted in 2021, and major systems include gas forced air heat, central air conditioning, owner owned solar panels, and a new hot water heater installed in 2025. What makes this property especially rare is how naturally it balances privacy and convenience. Positioned near the meeting point of the Clark Fork River and Bitterroot River, with state land directly beyond the property line, the setting offers extraordinary sunsets, dark night skies, fertile ground, and a sense of quiet that is increasingly difficult to find this close to town.
