About this property

Discover the charm of Montana living in this hand-hewn log home situated on 5 acres approximately 5 miles north of Ennis. With 1,579 square feet on the main level, a 1,280-square-foot unfinished basement, and a 2-car attached garage, this property offers comfortable living space with plenty of room to expand and personalize. The home features an inviting open floor plan with abundant large windows that bring in natural light and take advantage of the surrounding rural setting. Covered porches extend along two sides of the home, providing wonderful spaces to relax and enjoy the outdoors. Inside, pine flooring adds warmth and character to the kitchen and hallway, while a propane stove creates a cozy focal point in the living area. The primary bedroom includes a 3/4 bath, while the second bedroom is spacious but non-conforming due to the absence of a closet. A convenient half bath serves guests, and the combination mudroom/laundry room offers ample storage and easy access for everyday living. Recent and practical updates include a newer on-demand hot water heater and metal roof. Appliances conveying with the property include the range, refrigerator, dishwasher, washer, and dryer. The property also includes a 216-square-foot guest house with a 3/4 bath, offering flexible space for guests, a home office, studio, or private retreat. Additional improvements include an RV carport, loafing shed suitable for livestock shelter or equipment storage, and a 12' x 8' tool shed with workbench. The 5 acres are irrigated, cross-fenced, and offer a variety of possibilities for horses, livestock, gardening, or simply enjoying open space. Bear Creek forms the west boundary of the property, with the creek, streamside habitat, and wetlands adding natural beauty and wildlife appeal.
