It is where Lewis and Clark paused to explore which river to take to proceed west on their expedition. This is working Montana ranch country. Known for the rich gold mining history of Virginia City and Nevada city, today this area offers some of the country s finest outdoor recreation, including fly fishing for wild native trout and big game hunting. Its pleasant and comfortable right now, even down to new carpet and shining oak floors, but with some imagination, ceilings could be vaulted, the old ranch home floor plan opened up, and the house could be turned into a truly stunning, turn of the century retreat with a spacious contemporary flair. The house is approximately 1,400 square feet with 3 bedrooms, mud room, kitchen, formal dining, living room and laundry.
Views abound in every direction.
Preliminary design has been done on a potential remodeling of the house, which would create a stunning master bedroom overlooking the rest of the house, vaulted ceilings, and an open , flowing floor plan with windows opening to every direction. The 40 acres on which the ranch home nestles is a separate plat, protected by Covenants, and includes spring and irrigation overflows which run through a large depression, absolutely tailor made for an incredible two to three acre pond. Approximately 20 acres of the 40 acres is irrigated, wonderful for horses, whether for pasture or growing winter feed. A new well provides almost 30 gallons of water to the home s pressurized water system. A two car garage and storage shed lies across the drive from the house.
