47571 Glacier Lily Ln, Ronan, MT 59864

The idyllic setting is just 3 mi east of Ronan, beneath the foothills of the Missions. Glacier Lily Lane, is an area dense with ferns and fauna, tall whispering pines and abundant wildlife. This is quintessential NW Montana. Old growth forests comprising roughly 6 acres meet 4 acres of level parked-out lawns, gardens, and fenced pasture. The yard is nice with underground sprinkler system, deer proofed perennial garden areas, dog run or corral, fruit trees, a circular drive, huge parking pad near the shop garage, a well house and farm animal friendly pole barn. The home has an old worldly chalet feel. Prow front, fully windowed, with a solid wood staircase to the main floor from the circular driveway. Double doors enter the great room which showcases a massive rock fireplace of native terra stone, soft neutral carpeting, and tongue and groove wood ceilings. The kitchen is rustic with wood cabinets and countertops, stainless appliances, glass cook top and oven. Although somewhat separate, the kitchen dining area has a brick base floor and room divider- but is still open to the great room. The one bedroom up is the primary suite, with a focal wall of white rock and a sliding door to a potential roof top deck. The adjoining tiled three-quarter bath is shared as a guest bath, spacious and well lit. The middle room is versatile space. It is a second entry, coming into the home from the patio, yard and garage. An ideal office or conversation room, having a propane fireplace, with hearth and mantel, built-in to a wall of real brick! 6 steps lead you down to the lower daylight walk-out level from the middle room. Here, a newly carpeted family room, with full windows and a patio, propane FA wall heat, bar sink and closet. Both lower-level bedrooms have new carpeting, windows and share a full bath. There is a big laundry room, a storage room, and a linen closet. The concrete foundation walls faced with slate rock. Hallway floors slate rock. It’s uniquely 1978. & Peaceful! There are several fruit trees, an a old growth bank of plum trees! Horses, or lamas, farm animals will have decent shelter in a big grassy gated and fenced dog run area, complete with hog wire on post. The pole barn has 4 stalls, and is open to the west. Much of the initial 5 acres has been selectively logged, parked out and in field grasses and wildflowers. The forest extends into all the parcels along Glacier Lily Lane, it is especially soothing to simply tarry along and appreciate mother nature, as you will surely find. New roof in 2020.
