Description of the Country Home
|
This diverse acreage consists of approximately 1,495+/- deeded acres with a variety of land features. The property is accessed off paved Highway 287 between Alder and Nevada City. Around 45+/- acres in the southwest corner of the property are pivot irrigated croplands, presently planted in alfalfa with irrigation water rights sourced from Alder Creek. The remaining property consists of native rangelands with picturesque rock outcroppings and small riparian drainages. Terrain is considered moderately sloped with outstanding views of the surrounding mountains and Ruby Valley. The location of the property is an appealing attribute as it adjoins and is associated with Bureau of Land Management (BLM), public lands on the south boundary of Section 1 and east boundary of Section 11 (see property area map in addendum of brochure) . The BLM lease in section 12 T6SR4W comprises of approximately 599 acres. This slice of Montana is considered well watered for livestock grazing purposes. Migratory whitetail, mule deer, antelope, elk and moose frequent the property. The Ruby Valley Acreage offers very private and scenic retreat with numerous outstanding home sites to choose from. Based on its ease of access and relatively close proximity to required services, this property would also be a good candidate for further development and/ or conservation easement purposes.

Alder has a K-6 school, gas station/convenience store, steakhouses, taverns, motel and a post office. Alder is often the congregation point for many hunting, fishing, and other outdoor recreation excursions.
The small village of Alder is located in the beautiful Ruby Valley. The Greater Ruby Valley of Southwest Montana is a ranching community with some of the finest big game hunting and fishing in the country. The proximity of the Ruby, Beaverhead, Madison, Big Hole and Jefferson rivers enhance the popularity of the valley. These river basins are surrounded by numerous mountain ranges (Madison Range, Tobacco Roots, Ruby Range, Gravelly Range, Pioneers, McCartney and Highland Mountains) offering literally thousands of acres of public lands for all types of outdoor recreation.
Surrounding this extraordinary valley are numerous towns & cities that offer expanded commercial, social & institutional enterprises. Historic Virginia & Nevada cities to the southeast offer numerous historical and tourist activities and feature the Virginia City Players Theater and Brewery Follies cabaret.
