Description of the Country Home
|
A Truly Spectacular Western Montana Ranch
The Wheelbarrow Creek Ranch is available with nearly 1,100 acres (449+/- deeded acres and 640+/- leased) and impressive, first-class improvements. The ranch is located in the heart of the Bitterroot Valley and approximately 20 miles south of Missoula, which is the hub of Western Montana with an international airport and home to the University of Montana. 309+/- acres of the ranch's 449+/- deeded acres are in 14 legal deeds which would potentially allow for development and/or a conservation easement. An end of the road location ensures privacy and there is no public access through the ranch. Three creeks flow though with custom bridge crossings and fenced riparian areas with nice trees and cover. Roughly 1/2 of the ranch is irrigated and very productive hay ground. The property is fenced and cross-fenced with much of the fencing in steel pipe and electric wire. The ranch is bordered to the east by the state lease land (which also provides access into miles of state and federal lands) and to the north and south by larger acreages protected by conservation easements. The newer improvements are a true work of art. The main residence is a beautiful, lodge style Rocky Mountain Log Home built by a premier home builder with approximately 4,750 sq. ft., 6 bedrooms, 6 1/2 baths and partial basement. The high quality construction along with the extensive wood and stone craftsmanship conveys a feeling of permanence. The lodge overlooks the ranch with majestic and panoramic views of the mountains and valley floor. The lodge is nicely appointed with elegant western decor and fine furnishings. Outstanding log, wood and stone craftsmanship throughout featuring circular-sawn wood floors, large stone fireplace and exposed log ceiling beams in the open living, dining and kitchen. Two master bedrooms with fireplaces and master baths including claw foot tubs and tiled showers, four bedrooms with baths and tiled showers. Two offices/libraries. Stone patios, incredible outdoor stone fireplace. Large detached double garage. Exceptional views of the ranch and Bitterroot and Sapphire mountain ranges as well as the valley floor. A private drive winds to the lodge and features log and stone accent work. A custom 2,200+/- sq. ft. shop/office building with the same detail and quality as the lodge, provides ample room for equipment, vehicles and toys. Backup generator for emergencies or power outages. Fuel station with tanks. There is also an older ranch house with 4 bedrooms, 2 baths sitting in a nice setting near the barn and fish-able creek. Improvements also include an approximately 44 x 62 classic barn with paddocks, hay sheds, ranch outbuildings and working/weaning facilities for cattle. The property is extremely well cared for with none of the clutter sometimes associated with a conventional ranch. There are three creeks on the ranch (Wheelbarrow creek, Three Mile creek and Grayhorse creek) with custom bridge crossings. The Bitter Root Irrigation District's main ditch, "The Big Ditch", also winds through the ranch.
The Bitterroot Valley is located just south of Missoula, Montana. Missoula is the hub of Western Montana with an international airport and home to the University of Montana. The Bitterroot Valley is widely recognized for its beautiful Rocky Mountain locale with picturesque mountain ranges on the east and west and it's surrounding public forest and wilderness lands, moderate climate and limitless outdoor recreational activities including: fishing and floating the Bitterroot River(a fine gravel bottom fishery) and its many tributaries, big game hunting and viewing, hiking/backpacking, horse back riding (many local arenas are open to the public) and exploring the endless trails and roads in the vast and easily accessible public lands as well as practically everything else that Western Montana and the Rocky Mountains have to offer. The Stock Farm Club, a private golf community developed by Charles Schwab is located east of Hamilton. Two public golf courses are located in Hamilton and Stevensville. Winter opportunities include snowmobiling, alpine/Nordic skiing and snowboarding. Lost Trail Powder Mountain is the local ski area which typically receives some of the best powder snow in the state. |
