Mountain home east of Yellowstone Park - Great Price

This home is located in the pristine mountains just east of Yellowstone National Park in the middle of great recreation opportunities in the northwest corner of Wyoming. The home was built in the 1970s with a major addition in 1988.  Many more photos available for emailing to you.

The list price is currently a great buy for the area.  The two MLS comparables within 15 mile range are a 1088 sq foot home on almost 3 acres for $650,000 and a 1960 sq foot one bedroom one bath home on almost 6 acres for $799,000.  This 3389 sq foot home on 3 acres won't be at this price for very long and will go up rapidly once the economy improves.  The only lots on the MLS in this part of Wyoming for 30 miles around under 3 acres are several approximately 2.5 acre lots for $250,000 to $300,000 and one river front lot approximately 1 acre for $225,000.

The four bedrooms on the main floor include three with custom tongue and groove walls and/or ceilings and wood laminated floors. Of the two kitchens with eating areas, one has custom made cabinets with hand made wildlife handles and a fireplace. One living room has custom made wood walls, laminated wood floor and glass door fireplace. The other living room or great room has a cathedral ceiling with custom tongue and groove walls and ceiling with a Blaze King wood stove. This great room has views out the front and back to view the playing deer, elk, moose, bear, fox and wolf. There are four bathrooms (one full, two 3/4ths and one half bath), two with custom sinks. Upstairs has two large rooms for extra sleeping accommodations, play rooms and office space. There are also extra storage areas upstairs and a pantry downstairs.

The house has a 750 square foot redwood deck plus a covered patio on the front which overlooks the valley and the Beartooth Mountains. It is an electric home with baseboard heat, well and septic system. The home has clothes washer and dryer, two hot water heaters (one for each side) and a dishwasher. The home has been used year around but can be drained for winter shut down. The front yard has ponds fed by an association developed spring which is also used for outside irrigation May through September.

The home is ideal for company with separate areas for the comfort of each party. The home can be turned into a duplex arrangement with separate entrances if multiple families want to purchase the property jointly. Most furnishings are negotiable. The spring water association for irrigation is the only association and the property falls under Park County, Wyoming, residential zoning rules.
