Planned community outside Helena
Mountain View Meadows, about 5 miles outside Helena, is one of the area’s few planned communities. “It’s a good little neighborhood,” says Maria Demaray, a broker with Big Sky Brokers, LLC, who’s sold homes in Helena. “The people who live there love it, and there are a lot of walking paths.” The neighborhood is well-placed for exploring Helena’s outdoor options, such as Mount Helena and the Missouri River. Shopping and dining are also convenient to the neighborhood since Mountain View Meadows is within 5 miles of Helena, East Helena, and Montana City, all of which have their own unique restaurants.
Mountain View is a wide-open landscape in which to enjoy the views and the fresh air.
Homeowners take great pride in their lawns in the Mountain View Neighborhood.

Large lots, manicured lawns and views of the mountain
Mountain View Meadows' streets are lined with bright green lawns, smooth concrete walkups and sidewalks on both sides. On the edges of the development, where the asphalt streets change into dusty roads left over from the community’s construction, the landscape stretches out for hundreds of miles in the distance, and the view ends along the mountainous horizon. Homes range from around 1,500 square feet to more than 3,500 square feet, and they often have private garages and fenced yards. “You get more for your money out there,” says Demaray. Craftsman bungalows, ranch-style homes, and houses that mix aesthetic elements of many architectural styles are popular. Plus, many houses share building materials and aesthetics, like beige siding and white trim. Home prices generally range between $300,000 and $700,000. There are also a few condos, which may list from $350,000 to $480,000. The area is prone to wildfires, and residents should have a plan in place in case they need to evacuate.

Three towns’ worth of restaurants
Mountain View Meadows is between Helena and East Helena, and about 5 miles from Montana City. All three areas have different restaurant offerings, and Mountain View Meadows itself doesn’t have restaurants, so residents drive to these areas to eat and shop. Last Chance Gulch is Helena’s premiere shopping and dining district. It’s home to Helena favorites like On Broadway and shops like Great Divide Cyclery, popular with mountain bikers. East Helena has a few restaurants, such as Smith’s Place and the Missouri River Brewing Company. Montana City is popular all over the Helena region, and people drive in to eat breakfast at the Hardware Café. For groceries, a Walmart Supercenter is 3 miles west.
