12 Bench Road is a thoughtfully designed custom home built in 2006, offering distinctive craftsmanship, expansive views, and the privacy of approximately 45 acres.
Inside, soaring 20-foot knotty pine ceilings are complemented by expansive 15-foot windows that showcase sweeping views of the Tobacco Root Mountains to the south and the Jefferson Valley to the north. The living and dining areas are separated by a raised platform featuring a wood stove and four striking pine beams that extend upward toward the vaulted ceiling, adding even more character to the home’s dramatic central living space.
The spacious kitchen is designed with the home baker or entertainer in mind, featuring granite countertops, two stoves, and a double refrigerator. Six-panel wood doors add warmth and character throughout the home, and each bedroom features a walk-in closet.
Outside, the acreage offers the space and seclusion many buyers seek in Montana. The property is well suited for horses, with fenced and cross-fenced areas, a four-stall barn, an equipment shop, and a hay barn with capacity for more than 250 small square bales. The lot can be subdivided one time, with a minimum parcel size of 10 acres.
The property has been carefully maintained, including fresh exterior paint completed last fall and a new furnace installed in 2025. The water softening system and chimneys have also been routinely serviced.
12 Bench Road offers a rare combination of privacy, panoramic views, custom craftsmanship, and equestrian amenities, all in one exceptional Montana property.
