    What's special

    Inviting front porchTimeless characterGenerous living spacesClassic gablesOriginal architectural detailsStately brick exteriorBeautiful woodwork
    Located in the heart of historic Uptown Butte, this remarkable 1916 Victorian-style brick home is a rare opportunity to own a piece of the city's rich mining-era history. Built during Butte's copper boom, homes of this caliber were designed to showcase craftsmanship, elegance, and permanence—and many of those original architectural details remain today. The stately brick exterior, classic gables, and inviting front porch reflect the grand architecture that defined Uptown Butte in the early 1900s. Inside, you'll find beautiful woodwork, tall windows, generous living spaces, and timeless character that capture the spirit of an era when Butte was thriving as "The Richest Hill on Earth." Adding tremendous value and flexibility to the property is a detached garage with a one-bedroom apartment above. The apartment has previously rented for approximately $1,000 per month, offering potential income to help offset ownership costs, provide guest accommodations, or create additional living space. The property is currently being cleaned out and prepared for its next chapter. Some listing photos have been virtually staged and enhanced to help showcase the home's potential and possibilities. This home does have deferred maintenance and is being sold as-is, presenting an excellent opportunity for someone with vision to restore and enhance a truly historic property. The home is priced below value to reflect the work needed, with the 2025 tax assessed value reported at $802,071, creating a rare opportunity to invest in one of Uptown Butte's iconic historic residences. There may also be grant funding available to assist with certain upgrades or improvements, offering additional opportunities to preserve and revitalize this architectural treasure. Located just minutes from Uptown's shops, restaurants, entertainment, and historic landmarks, this property places you in the center of one of Montana's most unique and vibrant historic districts. **Showings are available after 10:00 AM by appointment.** Listed by Shelby Carver @platinumrealestatemt Platinum Real Estate.
