Imagine waking up to the gentle murmur of the Clark Fork River, where your morning coffee is paired with panoramic mountain views and the quiet stillness of the Plains valley. Built in 2019, this home beautifully anchors a generational Montana lifestyle on a spacious 0.342-acre waterfront lot. The heart of daily life unfolds across a fluid main level, where large riverside windows flood the living area with natural light and a classic shiplap fireplace offers a cozy gathering spot after a day spent on the water. The kitchen leans into timeless, functional craftsmanship, featuring a deep farmhouse sink, warm butcher block countertops, and a moving island that makes hosting seamless. From the dining area, slide out to the screened-in porch—the ultimate vantage point to watch the seasons change over the river or enjoy open-air dinners away from the elements. The layout balances privacy with room to grow, offering 5 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms spread thoughtfully over two levels. The main floor hosts the primary suite, complete with a beautifully tiled walk-in shower and dual shower heads, alongside a practical utility space and an additional guest bedroom. Upstairs, three more bright bedrooms feature built-in drawer storage and framed views of the water and surrounding peaks. But the true magic of this property lies in its outdoor versatility. Beyond the main house, a detached, insulated studio space serves as a private workshop, bunkhouse, or creative retreat. Hobbyists and growers will thrive here, supported by a large red storage barn, a dedicated greenhouse, and established raised garden beds. A massive gravel driveway provides effortless parking for your drift boat or camper, complete with a dedicated RV hookup featuring water, a sewer drain, and 30/50 amp power. Whether you are casting a line directly from your backyard, cultivating your own food, or hosting guests in their own rig, this property is a functional, scenic sanctuary designed for true Montana living.
