    Set on 4.377 acres, this peaceful country property offers beautiful valley views, live water, multiple buildings, and an unbeatable location in SW Montana. Situated in Gallatin Gateway, in-between Bozeman and Big Sky, the property features an historic and updated main home, quaint guest house, and rustic one-room bunk house. The main home features a spacious kitchen with two ovens, inviting living and dining spaces, wood-burning fireplace, Franklin stove, multiple bedrooms, a large deck, and covered front porch for enjoying the outdoors. A separate fourth-bedroom suite above the garage includes a kitchen, bath, garden spa tub, and beautiful views. The private one-bedroom guest house comes with a loft, kitchen, breakfast nook, and its own laundry—ideal for guests, multi-generational living, or potential rental use. Nearly 2.5 acres are irrigated with underground sprinklers, creating a park like setting around the homes. The adjacent pasture provides plenty of space for horses, cows, hobbies, or simply enjoying the open land. Best of all, you're just minutes from the Gallatin River for fishing and floating, 8 minutes from the Bozeman Hot Springs, about 20 minutes from the airport, and within easy reach of Big Sky and Yellowstone National Park. If you’re looking for a property that affords proximity to all SW has to offer, look no further.
