About This Home

As of October 2024

A true Montana treasure. Here is a rare opportunity to purchase a one-of-a-kind home located on top of the Continental Divide, The former Frontier Town. The property has been a personal residence since 2001 and is being sold as such. The personal residence includes a rustic but warm feel as you enter the living room with a large wood burning fireplace and views galore out the huge picture window. The kitchen/dining room area are built with log and rock walls. The bedroom and full bathroom finish off this living area nicely. This property includes 42 different rooms with lots of stone and woodwork thru out. This would be a great place for family gatherings as you have hiking, cross country skiing and trails right out your back door. There are several outbuildings with lots of history including a beautiful church and a detached large garage to store your toys and plow. The views are incredible and picturesque no matter where you look as you can see up to 75 miles on a clear day. Enjoy your very own pond that the birds and wildlife come to meander around. 15 springs and 41 acres of fenced property finish off the many unique and amazing features of this property. This property is located just a short distance from the Capitol City of Helena. Truly an amazing property. There are several antiques that are included along with outside equipment. The owner will be able to offer guidance with what is staying with the property. Property is being sold "as-is". Call Deb Wong at - 406-949-4398 or your real estate professional today.
