About this House

This home sits directly across from the University of Montana’s track and soccer fields, placing you in one of the most desirable locations in the U-District. Campus, downtown, the golf course, and a variety of neighborhood favorites, like Cambie, Birdie Thatcher, and Ditto Bottle Shop, are all just minutes away. You’ll also enjoy easy access to the trails of Pattee Canyon.

Inside, the main living area is bright and inviting, featuring newly refinished hardwood floors, fresh carpet, and abundant natural light. The dining space takes full advantage of those views and flows seamlessly into the updated kitchen, complete with new stainless-steel appliances and tile finishes.

A spiral staircase adds a distinctive architectural touch, connecting the home’s two levels. Upstairs, you’ll find two bedrooms and a full bathroom. The lower level includes two additional bedrooms, a second bathroom, laundry, and walkout access to the backyard.

The fully fenced backyard offers alley access and multiple off-street parking spaces; an uncommon find this close to campus. A storage shed near the alley and an additional attached storage area provide ample space for gear, projects, or extra belongings.

With a strong history as a short-term rental, previously averaging over $40,000 annually, this property also presents an excellent income opportunity in one of Missoula’s most sought-after neighborhoods.

    "The neighborhood is very expensive to live it. Cost of living is high and very little provision for low income families. There’s also frequent crime in the area with poor traffic system and poor traffic markings or directions."

    "The area epitomizes beauty, friendliness, access to the trails, the river, and mountains. The University provides a great backdrop and is essentially a gigantic park, but it also means some extra pedestrian and vehicle traffic on school days. Unparalleled access to Mount Sentinel and the Clark Fork. Exceptional, mature trees and wide boulevards. There are some rentals in the area (expected near the U) but most homes are sufficiently valuable that rental costs are high enough to keep the renters respectful of the property and therefore neighborhood. An amazing area."
