Remarks: Under Contract Back Up Offers - Property is Under Contract with Seller accepting Back Up Offers. The beautiful Blackfoot Valley corridor, traversed by the fabled Big Blackfoot River, the focal point of Norman Maclean's cult-classic novella ''A River Runs Through It'' (and later a hit film by the same name), has captured many a heart and imagination of those seeking the wonderment and sheer poetry that is Western Montana, and the current owner's story is no exception. Looking for their dream property over 20 years ago, the owner and her husband had specific criteria in mind: Close proximity to Missoula. a private, mountain setting with easy access to the river, public lands and a quality constructed home whose exterior was complementary to its wooded setting. The search was over when found 4561 Taggert Lane, a lovely 2-Story, redwood sided home that was perfectly suited to its bucolic setting boasting towering Pines, Quaking Aspens, and the sound of Twin Creek (right across the Lane) rushing towards towards the river. Custom built in 1986 by the former owner of a locally owned Hardwoods company, there is ample use and well-thought out incorporation of a variety of woods: Cherry, Maple, and Oak accents. Located off the full-length, 288 sq ft covered back porch is the entrance to the country kitchen and dining area, flanked by gorgeous Cherry cabinetry, Cherry beamed ceilings, and anchored by rich, Maple wainscoting and a fabulous bay window with awesome back yard views! The main floor also features a good-sized den/family room, and a full bath. The ''Crown Jewel'' of the home is without a doubt the incredibly spacious Formal Living Room, boasting soaring cathedral ceiling lines, a bank of ''floor to ceiling'' Oak-trimmed windows with the focal point being the custom rock, wood-burning fireplace. The upper level of this gracious, comfortable offering features the Master Bedroom, and good-sized secondary bedrooms, all which share a very roomy full-sized hall bathroom. The unsung feature of this altogether spacious abode is the full, unfinished basement that will allow you to finish to suit your own specific tastes and needs. A 240 sq ft insulated ''Art Studio'' has been added to the 26' X 32' double, detached garage and there's plenty of storage space for all of your ''Montana Toys.'' Over the past 20 years the current owner and her family have loved this location and have created great memories of floating the Blackfoot River, hiking, hunting and snowmobiling on the public lands located adjacent to this site. They are confident that the next, lucky owner will no doubt create their own, bucolic Montana lifestyle in nothing flat!
