About This Home

As of January 2025

Your Montana waterfront property awaits! Perched high above Hauser Lake with 360 degree views of lakes and mountains, this mountain modern log home is the quintessential Montana retreat. Enjoy your coffee while watching the sunrise over Hauser Lake from the wrap-around deck and make sunset watching your favorite ritual at the firepit on your personal lookout point. This home was the original ranch home for the surrounding 280 acres and it sits at the most prominent and desirable location in the area: on a private peninsula overlooking two lakes, the Helena Valley, and the nearby mountain ranges. The road name Soaring Eagle is no coincidence as Goldens are often spotted and Montana Audubon Society uses the property for occasional tracking. Thanks to its cul-de-sac location, it feels remote yet is only 20 minutes from the airport and downtown Helena, and a 30-minute drive to the Missouri River and Great Divide Ski Hill. The home has recently been updated and is move-in ready with furnishings that are negotiable so that your move is a breeze. With 800 feet of waterfront and a BRAND NEW private dock on Hauser Lake, this property is the perfect playground for all water sports, kayaking, fishing, and even ice skating. So bring your toys and make your Montana dream a reality with this one-of-a-kind property! Seller financing is an option with the right purchase terms.
