Beautiful Ranch in Montana Foothills

Beautiful 4 bedroom, 3 bath home nestled in the foothills of the Tobacco Root Mountains in Southwest Montana. The property is located south of Cardwell Montana, on Highway 359 just minutes from Interstate 90. Bozeman MT is a short 45 minute drive and Yellowstone Nat'l Park is 120 miles south of the ranch. This custom built home is well insulated, has 2 wood pellet stoves (one on main floor, one in the basement) and a forced air furnace. The open kitchen/dining area and office have oak hardwood floors. The great room features a 17 ft. ceiling with large windows to capture the magnificent mountain views. The 2 car attached garage brings you into a mud/ laundry room. A master suite rounds out the 1550 sq. ft. main level. There are two large bedrooms w/ closets and a full bath on the 550 sq. ft. upper level. The 1550 sq. ft. basement is 75% complete and has a bedroom, family room and mechanical room with storage shelves. The yard is beautifully landscaped and has underground sprinklers. This ranch has 21 acres of alfala/grass hay that is irrigated by wheelline and handline, approximately 60 acres of pasture that can be flood or handline irrigated. The balance is dryland pasture. The irrigation is gravity fed or pumped from the fishing pond. There are two spring fed creeks that flow year-round. There are an abundance of both whitetail and mule deer that frequent the property. A number of blue ribbon trout streams are practically "next door" and excellent elk and antelope hunting is close by. You are less than 20 minutes from the closest National Forest trailhead. There are also 4 ski resorts within 90 minutes of this property.
