Listing Agent is related to Seller. The main house is log and features a large master suite with a three quarter bathroom. The house originally had two bedrooms, that were converted to one great room. The living area of the main house has a wood stove with a glass door for ambiance. Laundry/mud room was added in 2000.
The thoughtfully designed layout includes a detached studio that serves as one of the bedrooms, offering flexibility for guests, a private retreat, creative space, or home office. It also has a three quarter bathroom and a wood stove for those cool Montana nights. The garage has a kitchenette, plus an area in the back that was used as a working dog kennel. There are two remaining kennels with openings to the outside concrete pad, but no current fencing. There is also an elevated tub for grooming.
The apartment/garage has log siding.
