A unique piece of Wisdom history, this former creamery offers rustic character, flexible space, and an opportunity to create a one-of-a-kind Big Hole Valley getaway. Built in 1900 and tucked just off Main Street behind Southern Montana Telephone Company, the 1,104-square-foot building sits on a 0.27± acre lot with no covenants.
Inside, newer flooring, reclaimed barn wood, and corrugated metal finishes give the property a distinctive Western feel. The open main living area combines kitchen and gathering space and is warmed by a wood stove. A large rustic sliding barn door separates the main room from an oversized bunk/sleeping area with a baseboard heater. The bunk room provides plenty of space for multiple beds or could be divided into two separate sleeping areas.
A covered front porch adds usable outdoor space, while the metal roof and updated electrical provide important improvements to the original structure.
The property currently has no interior plumbing. A well is located on the property, and the necessary sewer easement has been secured, bringing sewer access onto the property for a future connection. Buyers can take the next step in developing the water and sewer systems to fit their intended use.
Behind the building, a spring-fed slough provides year-round water and adds another distinctive element to the setting. No water rights are included for use of the slough.
With its historic roots, rustic interior, open floor plan, and location in the heart of Montana's Big Hole Valley, this property has excellent potential as a recreational retreat, hunting cabin, personal getaway, or possible short-term rental, subject to applicable regulations and completion of the necessary plumbing and utility improvements.
Year-round recreational opportunity, historic character, a flexible footprint, and a setting that feels right at home in Wisdom make 230 N. Main Street an opportunity unlike anything else on the market.
