Welcome to the beautiful West Fork! Comfortable and cozy home for year round living or a summer escape. Don’t let that 1 bedroom 1 bathroom description fool you as there are 2 additional rooms without closets and an office. Walk across the street and enjoy fishing the Bitterroot River. Painted Rocks Lake is a 1/2 mile up the road. The home has a garage that is attached to the house via a fully enclosed breezeway. There is also a wired and insulated shop in the back, a lean-to for wood storage, a spot to park an extra car and a small additional shed. Excellent well water, a full septic system was installed in 2019, and there’s even an outhouse. Property backs up to Forest Service land. Enjoy your morning coffee while watching the wildlife with the majestic Painted Rocks in the background.
