About This Home

Welcome to 83 Big Country Drive, in Townsend, where Montana dreams do come true. What a gorgeous private 27.34+- acre horse property engulfed in 360 views & unbelievable sunsets. This has been said to be some of the best Broadwater County offers. This custom 2,838+- sq foot home offers 4 bedrooms, 2 1/2 baths, plenty of storage, & a beautiful kitchen overlooking the open concept with sweeping panoramic views out walls of picture windows. Efficiently built this home has a gas furnace, an AC unit & a gorgeous wood stove. Vigilante Co-Op provides the power. Within the last year renovations & upgrades have been made inside & out. A few of these custom touches are crafted rock work, new floors, texture & paint, trim, a wood stove, insulation, siding, metal roofing, soffit, facia, gutters, landscaping & high-quality redwood decking. Full views of Canyon Ferry Reservoir & the mountain ranges are incredible. Abundant wildlife habitat. Licensed Montana Real Estate Agent owned. This home is 2,838+- sq feet with the main level boasting a master suite complete with a full bathroom. The 1/2 bath & laundry are located just off of the front entry which is so convenient. The kitchen has great storage complete with a wall mounted oven & the JennAir stovetop, grill & downdraft ventilation. Views from the kitchen are breathtaking. The kitchen overlooks the dining area & living room. We are excited for you to experience the views from the dining area. Many meals have been enjoyed while watching sunsets as the wildlife roam. It is so peaceful watching the deer & horses graze while the turkeys race around the yard. The living room is also wrapped with picture windows absorbing natural light & panoramic views from the Townsend valley, Canyon Ferry Reservoir, the Elkhorn Mountain Range, Mount Baldy & all the way over to Edith. Waking up to sunrises & warm fires sooths the heart & just starts the day out right. The east side walk out redwood deck is accessed through the French doors with the BBQ gas line ready for summer dinners. The wood stove sits perfectly within the custom rock work offering warmth & efficiency. The walk out basement is beautiful with natural light shining through the large windows. The French doors open up to the patio & an above ground fire pit.. The three bedrooms are larger each with nice closets & sizeable windows. The 3rd room was used as an office while the closet was utilized as the home's storage pantry. Efficiently built & heated, the gas furnace, the AC unit & water heater have all been recently serviced while the septic was pumped & inspected. The power is provided by Vigilante Co-Op. This home is Montana Real Estate agent owned. The owners were planning on keeping this home forever so upgrades & renovations were completed in late 2024 & early 2025. The inside of the home has had all new texture, paint, trim, flooring, custom rock work, a wood stove & insulation while the exterior has a new seamless metal roof, smart siding, wrapping, soffit, facia, gutters & the most beautiful redwood decking. The redwood has been sealed with linseed oil twice. This brings out the beautiful colors while protecting it from the weather elements. This is also for easy maintenance. The 27.34+- acres has NO COVENANTS & is the perfect horse property. The round pen & holding corral are great. When one has horses, a round pen is just about a must. The holding pen has been used for raising beef. the pastures have been fertilized & seeded with practice of weed control. The garden was completed in the summer of 2024 with a custom-built greenhouse, above ground garden boxes & a wonderful low maintenance watering system. Which could easily be hooked up to the yard's underground watering system. The mature raspberries have provided gallons of berries while the chokecherry, plumb, cherry, pear & apple trees are growing and starting to produce. Now look at those redwood decks! When you tour the property imagine soaking in a hot tub while soaking in the private views. There really aren't words to describe the tranquil beauty. The garage is heated with a newer pellet stove and is fully insulated with storage, windows & a huge attic storage room accessed through the drop stairs. The shop is also insulated, finished & heated. The tack shed has been appreciated as it offers storage & shelving. 83 Big Country Drive is settled on the backside of private ranches & is within minutes of state, forest service & BLM land. It is approximately 15 minutes from Townsend, 45 from Helena & an hour & 10 minutes from Bozeman. It is truly a great location. Words cannot explain how beautiful the views are, nor can they describe how it feels to watch all of the wildlife. With this said we hope you enjoy the sunset & wildlife photos provided. Schedule your private showing soon.
