As you drive in from Chokecherry Dr. to Larch Ave, the first thing you see are multiple gardens, alerting one to the gardening potential of this unique spot... a gardener’s dream in the coveted Rattlesnake area. With quiet and privacy, being set away from Rattlesnake Dr, this sweet spot offers a heavenly sanctuary. Have you ever dreamt of having a tiny farm? The property offers the perfect opportunity with 10 mature apple trees, four fenced garden plots with fabulous soil, a wild hillside, and beautiful large evergreen trees. The long term perennial flowers, bushes and fruits include strawberries, blueberries, black raspberries, rhubarb, peonies, iris, geraniums, poppies and so much more. Nature abounds in this open area, with songbirds, deer, turkeys and more. With an abundance of surrounding open space and Rattlesnake Trailhead minutes away, hiking, biking, XC skiing and fishing can be enjoyed in the nearby streams, forests and mountains. Sitting on 2.57 acres, most of which is level, the home offers an open floor plan, fireplace, wood floors, 4 bedrooms, 2 baths, a partially unfinished basement and more. Encompassing multiple desirable elements, one could easily make this their dream property. The property has water rights to the Williams Ditch and an underground sprinkling system with a pump that allows for easy watering of the gardens and grounds. Having both the ditch and a productive well for water, as well as a septic system, one can avoid having to pay for public water or sewer, thus remaining more self sufficient financially. Downtown Missoula is just 10 minutes away, with the University of Montana, Missoula Symphony, theaters, galleries, fabulous restaurants and a multitude of community activities are available. This property has not been on the market since 1958, and awaits the next generation of nature-loving gardeners who dream of living in a private, quiet setting with acreage and beauty all around. Cider press included with the sale. For more information and a private showing, please call or text Katie Van Dorn at 406-370-9200 or your real estate professional.
