About this property
Ten gorgeous acres line the Clark Fork River, mature trees tracing the shoreline between the home and the water. This property offers vast versatility. A large log cabin home of 2,800 square feet holds 4 bedrooms and three bathrooms across a layout built in 1982 and thoughtfully expanded since. Inside, rustic circle-sawn wood floors run beneath vaulted ceilings, and the kitchen centers on a kitchen island with custom metal cabinets and topped in wood butcher block. A wood-burning cookstove anchors the living space for the long Montana winters, while a sprinkler system keeps the grounds green through summer. Highlighted features include the fenced area welcoming horses on arrival and a small orchard of apple, pear, and plum trees. The detached two-stall garage includes a separate living space of 400 square feet with a kitchenette and bathroom. Utilize this space as private guest quarters, a rental unit, or an Airbnb for extra income. The property has a proven rental history! There is no shortage of recreation nearby. Fish, float or kayak the Clark Fork, explore the trails and public lands of Lolo National Forest, or watch bighorn sheep moving through the valley. Quinn's Hot Springs, Flathead Lake and the National Bison Range are all within driving distance, and the surrounding mountains provide plenty of opportunities for hiking, hunting and wildlife viewing. Mountains, turquoise clear river frontage, wildlife, peace.

Buyer checklist
Questions worth investigating for any farm or ranch purchase. They are not claims that this property has a problem or meets any condition.
- Legal accessIs there deeded or recorded access to a public road, and are there easements across the land (or that the land relies on)?
- Water rights and wellsA well, pond, creek or irrigation system does not by itself establish a legal right to use the water. Ask for the water right, permit or registration documents and test the well.
- Leases and tenanciesAre there farm, grazing, hunting, CRP, oil and gas or wind leases? Some survive a sale or require notice before they end.
- Soil and usable landHow many acres can actually be cropped or grazed? Check the NRCS soil survey and get a current lab soil test for the use you plan.
- RestrictionsZoning, conservation easements, deed restrictions, HOA rules, floodplain and wetland rules can limit what you can do.
- Building conditionBarns, fences, wells and septic systems need inspection; a listed building may not suit a commercial or livestock use.
- UtilitiesPower, water, septic capacity, internet and road maintenance: who provides them and at what cost.
- What is included in the saleEquipment, growing crops, stored hay, livestock, irrigation equipment, permits and farm program contracts are often separate. Get it in writing.
