Remarks: Peace and tranquility is what you'll find on this incredible property nestled in the foothills of the Sapphire Mountains in the Bitterroot Valley! Just 35 minutes from Missoula is this charming, 2-story home with 3 bedrooms, a loft bonus room, 2 1/2 bathrooms, and detached garage/shop, all on 20 acres bordered on two sides by conservation land. The 1,800+ SF home features a main level with an airy, open feel that is highlighted by vaulted ceilings in the living room, a bright and spacious kitchen that has loads of counter space, an island and dining area, and large windows for the natural light to shine through. Easy access from the kitchen to the spacious deck means you can easily cook your favorite meal inside, or outside if you prefer, and conveniently enjoy it with your friends and family out there. The deck also provides the perfect spot to simply sit in silence and take in the sunshine of the day, the spectacular sunsets of the evening and the starry skies at night. Rounding out the main level are the sizable main bedroom with ensuite, another full bathroom and an oversized laundry room with tons of shelving for storing bulk items or other necessities. The custom, hand-made, spiral staircase in the living room leads to the second level where you'll find two more bedrooms, a half bath and a loft room that overlooks the living room. As a bonus, the loft room opens to a small deck.

The detached, 36' x 36' garage/shop provides plenty of room for your vehicles, toys and hobbies. An added feature is a 10' X 36' unfinished room above the shop that provides additional space that can be used for storage or any number of things. The yard is mostly fenced and is lovingly and abundantly landscaped, boasting beds of raspberries, strawberries, and plentiful flowers, along with mature trees and lilac bushes. The front yard is highlighted by a small, year-round creek and an arched bridge that leads to the the other side of the creek to a charming gazebo and even more flowers. As you sit in the gazebo and hear the creek ripple by, you'll see that peace and tranquility are easy to find here. You can rest easy knowing the home has a new well and a new metal roof was installed on the home, both in summer 2021. Electricity is solar powered with a whole-home generator for backup.

If you've been looking for a little peace and quiet, a bit of elbow room and easy access to all Missoula has to offer, look no further, this home is for you.
