Description

Remarks: A truly one of a kind outdoor paradise with breathtaking Clark Fork River frontage. Whether your passion is sustainable living or just being immersed in outdoor beauty, this property offers something for everyone. There are numerous springs, creeks, a pond, and during a portion of the year, even a waterfall cascading down from national forest lands bordering the land. The domestic, livestock, and irrigation water is all provided by gravity fed underground springs and surface water that this is abundant on this lush mountain property. The ranch also boasts an orchard with 35 plus fruit trees, and irrigated horse pastures. Square footage of structures are approximate. Buyers agent/buyer needs to measure to be sure of structure sizes/facility measurements. Surface Water: Clark Fork River An array of elk, whitetail deer, mule deer, bighorn sheep, bear, and mountain lion call this area home. The ranch is bordered by the famous Clark Fork river with its renowned trout and small mouth bass fishing opportunities. Numerous species of waterfowl congregate around this tributary as well all year long. The sounds of nature permeate from all around you as old growth ponderosa pines and many other types of trees shade the landscape and bordering national forest lands. Located in one of Montana's general hunting districts, (area 124) the region has liberal license quotas for non-residents and huge amounts of public land available for any outdoor activity.

Nestled on the property is a solid 1915 3 bed/2 bath hand hewn log farmhouse. The house has been nicely updated and sided. There are numerus outbuildings, a turn of the century log structure, and a tasteful 2 bed/2 bath trailer with additional garage and sunroom that goes with the property. Maintenance free vinyl fencing surrounds the property and horse pastures, cutting down on upkeep, and providing a gorgeous contrasting aesthetic to the lush green irrigated foliage and pastures. Live and play in and around the tract's established accommodations or build your dream home.
