A year-round creek meanders through this private retreat, setting the stage for creativity, reflection, and true seclusion. The property offers two cabins—one move-in ready and another awaiting your vision—plus a main residence of over 4,000 sq. ft. Currently featuring 2 bedrooms and 1 bath, the home boasts an expansive studio space upstairs ready to be finished to suit your needs. The unfinished basement provides even more potential for living space or a private apartment. A 2-acre building envelope allows for the addition of a shop, barn, or another home, creating endless possibilities. Recreation abounds right out your door, with wildlife, hiking, and mountain air as your daily backdrop. This is more than a home; it’s a retreat, a lifestyle, and a rare opportunity to own 155 acres of Montana’s inspiring landscape. A Montana Legacy Property
Opportunities like this rarely come to market. Spanning 155 acres, this property embodies the essence of Montana living: wild landscapes, self-sufficiency, and privacy balanced with proximity to modern conveniences. The conservation easement ensures long-term protection of the land’s natural resources while still allowing a 2-acre building envelope for future improvements. This is an investment not only in real estate, but in a way of life rooted in stewardship and heritage. The home itself was designed with practicality and flexibility in mind. The main floor currently includes 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, providing a comfortable, livable footprint. Downstairs, the unfinished basement is framed and plumbed for expansion—an opportunity to add bedrooms, bathrooms, and living space according to your needs. The upper story contains a large studio area awaiting completion. Artists, craftspeople, or those seeking a spacious retreat will appreciate the ability to shape this studio into a dream creative haven. Two rustic cabins add character and versatility to the property. Whether used for guest lodging, caretaker quarters, or additional work/studio space, they enhance the property’s ability to accommodate visitors or multiple generations. These cabins provide the kind of charm that makes mountain properties so appealing—simple structures nestled into the landscape, blending naturally with the environment. The property is well-equipped for year-round living. A private well and septic system serve the residence. Starlink internet ensures modern connectivity for remote work or streaming. Heating is provided via a wood boiler system with propane backup, costing an average of $1,200 annually. County-maintained roads make access reliable in all seasons, an important factor for year-round residents. One of the defining features of this land is Anderson Creek, which meanders through the property for roughly one mile. This is the longest continuous reach of the creek, making this parcel particularly significant for watershed health. Flowing north to its confluence with Prickly Pear Creek, the creek supports riparian vegetation, wildlife habitat, and seasonal recreation. The soothing sound of water running year-round is a daily reminder of the property’s rare natural wealth. This property is alive with wildlife. It lies adjacent to the Elkhorn Wilderness Study Area, managed by the Bureau of Land Management, and functions as part of a critical wildlife corridor. Here, you can witness mule deer and whitetail deer moving through the forest, elk herds grazing, and black bear, moose, mountain lion, and even elusive lynx using the land as habitat. Birders will appreciate seasonal migrations and the chance to see raptors, songbirds, and waterfowl. Living here means sharing space with Montana’s most iconic wildlife species. The acreage is a diverse blend of forest, meadow, and riparian habitat. Tall conifers, aspens, and understory vegetation provide cover for wildlife and beauty for residents. Changing seasons bring dramatic variation—lush green growth in spring, wildflowers and abundant wildlife activity in summer, golden foliage in fall, and quiet snow-covered stillness in winter. This is a property that is alive year-round, with new sights and sounds unfolding with each season. The property itself offers endless opportunities for recreation. Hike your own trails, explore the creek, snowshoe in winter, or simply enjoy quiet evenings by a woodstove after a day outdoors. With adjacency to BLM lands, recreational access extends beyond the property lines. Whether you’re a hunter, photographer, or someone who values solitude, this is a rare place to create a personal retreat. Being under a conservation easement, this property carries both responsibility and pride. It is protected from subdivision and development, ensuring its ecological integrity remains intact for future generations. At the same time, the 2-acre building envelope offers flexibility for adding structures that align with your vision—a larger residence, outbuildings, or barns. For those who value land conservation, this is a chance to own a piece of protected Montana heritage while still enjoying private ownership and improvements. Though private and secluded, the property is not isolated. County-maintained roads provide dependable year-round access. Helena is a comfortable drive away, offering shopping, medical services, schools, dining, and cultural events. This unique balance—quiet mountain living with city access—makes the property appealing to a wide range of buyers. Properties of this scale, with live water, adjacency to public lands, and a conservation easement already in place, are increasingly rare. Whether used as a personal residence, family legacy property, recreational retreat, or investment in Montana’s conservation future, this land will hold value for generations. Highlights:
