This lovingly cared-for home sits in the heart of Helena’s South Central neighborhood, perfectly located between downtown, the Capitol complex, and just blocks from Mount Ascension trails.
Inside, the open main living space feels warm and inviting, with the living room flowing into a beautifully remodeled kitchen featuring a large island and floor-to-ceiling cabinetry. A spacious dining area or bonus room adds flexibility and charm with its cozy wood-burning stove and French doors that open to a covered patio and backyard.
Upstairs, you’ll find three bedrooms, including a generous primary bedroom with double closets. The remodeled full bathroom features a tiled shower and tub combination. Newer windows throughout the home bring in abundance of natural light.
The outdoor space is a dream with fully fenced front and back yards, established landscaping, a covered front porch, detached garage, and off-street parking with alley access and a fire pit area.
With trails, parks, schools, and local amenities nearby, this is a great opportunity to own a wonderful home in one of Helena’s most desirable neighborhoods.
