Set on 17 gently sloping acres in the heart of Montana's breathtaking Bitterroot Valley, this rare property presents an extraordinary opportunity to create a private retreat, multi-home estate, or legacy family compound. Perched on a west-facing ridge, the land offers sweeping, unobstructed views of the Bitterroot Mountains. The terrain naturally lends itself to multiple potential homesites, each with its own panoramic outlook. With access from two paved, county-maintained roads, the property strikes a perfect balance between privacy and convenience. Recent site evaluations confirm that the soils and topography may be ideal for development, with septic feasibility already in place. Whether you're envisioning a guest home, or extended family residences, the potential is there. Abundant water and irrigation rights are secured making the property well-suited for pasture, orchards, or small-scale farming... (Continued...) Currently, 12 acres are planted in high-quality pasture grass, supported by a wheel and stub irrigation system. The land is fenced with both electric and pole fencing, making it ready for livestock or equestrian use. Horse enthusiasts will appreciate the modern three-stall stable, complete with an attached tack room and adjacent pasture. Remnants of the property's past as an apple orchard add charm and character: the original log apple-sorting building, bunkhouse, and workshop remain, offering unique restoration or redevelopment opportunities. The existing two-bedroom, two-bath modern farmhouse features an open floor plan designed to showcase the magnificent views of the Bitterroot Range. ADA features would allow for a beautiful transition when needed. A detached two-car garage with workshop adds practical space for vehicles and tools. With its rare combination of beauty, usability, and expansion potential, this is more than a property-it's a foundation for generations to come.
