Modern neighborhoods needn't be boring if you know the rich history behind the location, and oh what a storied setting 3429 Rodeo Road offers! Back in the 1940's the level ground that's cradled between the open hillsides in the Upper Miller Creek drainage did indeed serve as the K-O Rodeo Arena, albeit a no-frills arena, with no place to sit, save for the grassy environs of the nearby slopes. However, by the 1970's, it was the legendary U of M Aber Day Keggers that gave this region its proverbial street cred, playing host to thousands of revelers each Spring, and featuring such bands as The Mission Mountain Wood Band and Jimmy Buffett! Ironically, the current owners selected this Single Level Home several years ago for their own U of M Grad Student, due to its quiet, scenic location. 3429 Rodeo Road boasts Single Level living that does not compromise on space or scale. Certainly, the curb appeal of this c. 1999 offering is noteworthy, boasting an eye catching pallet of soft grays and creamy whites that are beautifully framed by black shutters and tasteful carriage lights. However, it's the wide open, fluid floor plan of the well-appointed interior that will capture your heart and imagination! The plush, newer, neutral carpeting plays well against the muted earth-toned walls, and the scale of the vaulted ceiling truly gives the Great Room a warm and welcoming introduction to this well-cared for residence, as the bank of picture windows on either end of the space truly allow in the natural beauty of the setting. The Kitchen offers up Maple Cabinetry, a Breakfast Bar, a suite of matching appliances, and tasty views of the back yard! As part of the Great Room concept, the Dining Area can truly be any size you wish, from Cozy to all out Abundance. Discreetly ensconced between the attached Double Garage and the Kitchen, a well-appointed Laundry/Mud Room is as bright and sunny as can be, offering a plethora of storage and a handy, dandy utility sink, too! Located just off of the Great Room is the primary Bathroom that features tiled flooring, a pedestal sink and there are even 3 singular closet scattered along the length of the hallway, offering marvelous storage for one and all! The secondary bedrooms each offer lovely, north-facing residential views, with the open, grassy hillsides as a glorious back drop. The spacious Master Bedroom boasts a Walk-In Closet, a private Bathroom and pretty views of the rear grounds and nearby hillside. The sliding glass door access not only allows in abundant, ambient light, it leads directly onto a Redwood Deck, replete with a most delightful Pergola that's flanked by a Quaking Aspen. Mature Lilac Bushes, Ornamental Trees, established Pines, Cottonwoods and Maple Trees all add depth, character and shade to the fenced and cross-fenced grounds, and the farm gates in place do allow for easy vehicle access, too. However, it's really the 24'X30', finished Heated Shop that tends to command the most attention on the grounds! With an easy roll up door, built-in work benches, cabinets and more, it's not hard to love the flexibility of this space. As an added treat, carpeted stairs lead to the upper level which plays host to the most delightful, finished and carpeted Studio Space, that boasts good light, angled ceiling lines, and a tiled Bathroom with a Granite-topped Vanity. This Single Level, Singular Sensation offers an impressive 1,416' of comfortable living space, and the proximity to all that Missoula has to offer is literally just a few miles away, along a scenic, County-maintained road. Back in the Day these grounds saw rough and ready cowboys, and fun-loving hippies and students kicking up their respective heels. Now, 3429 Rodeo Road is simply a lovely, quiet place for you to kick back and to call Home.
