About This Home

As of October 2025

Opportunity knocks in the sunny south end of Happy Valley, Whitefish. This single-family home sits on nearly an acre split between two large lots(470 and 466 Cougar Trail) — offering excellent development, rental, or value-add potential. The property includes two oversized shop garages, tons of parking, and excellent sun exposure — ideal for future improvements, tenants, or owner-use. While the home is a fixer and may not be financeable in its current condition, size is good and the layout is functional. Located within walking distance to State Forest land with direct access to hiking and biking trails, and just minutes from the Kalispell Convenience Corridor, this location offers strong long-term upside for rental income or redevelopment. Whether you're looking to renovate and rent, subdivide, or hold as a long-term play, this is a rare opportunity in a rapidly growing area.
