Nestled on 35.15 timbered acres in Paradise, this 1,875-square-foot log home offers a peaceful retreat surrounded by the rugged beauty of Western Montana. Approximately 300 feet of McLaughlin Creek winds through the property, while the mountainside offers impressive views of the Clark Fork River, valley, and surrounding peaks. Inside, soaring vaulted ceilings, exposed wood details, and a floor-to-ceiling fieldstone fireplace with wood-burning stove create a warm and inviting centerpiece. The kitchen features wood cabinetry, an extended breakfast bar, and an open connection to the dining and living areas. Two ductless mini-splits, along with wood and gas stoves, provide year-round comfort. The main level includes a bedroom, full bath with copper sink vanity, and utility room. Upstairs, the spacious loft offers exceptional flexibility. Originally configured as two bedrooms, it could potentially be converted back, creating a 3-bedroom home. Plumbing is also in place for the addition of a half bath in the loft. Outside, relax on the full-length covered porch and enjoy the peaceful surroundings and frequent wildlife sightings, including bighorn sheep. Additional features include a metal roof, covered carport, storage shed, enclosed animal area, and a designated guest cabin site prepped with water and sewer lines. With 35+ private acres, creek frontage, river and valley views, and room to make it your own, this is a distinctive Montana property with space to live, explore, and unwind. Paradise is known for its access to the Clark Fork River, fishing, rafting, floating, and surrounding public lands, with Quinn’s Hot Springs Resort just a short drive away.
