Beautiful Home in the Foothills of the Bitterroot Mountains

If you’re dreaming of being tucked away in the Bitterroot Mountains, this home is beautifully positioned right in the foothills, with sweeping views of Sheafman Creek Canyon and the rugged Sapphire Mountains. The Bitterroots are a hiker’s paradise, and this residence sits just minutes from hiking trails and National Forest Service land located in Hunting District 240. While you feel like you’re away from it all, you’re only about 15 minutes from downtown Hamilton, where local shopping, charming eateries and community conveniences await. Located on 5.55 fenced and landscaped acres, the property offers the best of space and seclusion. Seasonal irrigation ditches, two fenced garden areas and a large greenhouse provide support for your vision of self-sufficiency. Additional storage sheds (convertible back to raising chickens or goats) bring practicality and flexibility to the grounds. Inside the main house you’ll find approximately 4,012 sq ft of thoughtfully designed living space built in 1997. A great room with tall ceilings and a dramatic rock, wood-burning fireplace anchors the home and overlooks the backyard panorama of the Bitterroots. Adjacent is a formal dining room, just off the kitchen, ideal for gatherings. Five bedrooms and three full baths, each with Jacuzzi tubs, afford luxurious accommodations. The primary suite is upstairs, with an en-suite bathroom, attached office and private balcony framing scenic views. For the car-enthusiast or hobbyist, an insulated and heated three-car detached garage is complemented by a workshop with two additional garage bays. Above the shop lies a complete two-bedroom, two-bath apartment — ideal for guest quarters or generating rental income. Combining privacy, functionality and natural beauty, this property is a rare opportunity to own your piece of the Bitterroot lifestyle: sip your morning coffee on the balcony, then head out the door to explore the trails and ridge-lines that surround you.
