MLS 30022769 $550,000

A short drive to Butte and Dillon, this special retreat property is situated steps away from the famed blue-ribbon fishery the Big Hole River. Grab your fly rod, walk out the front door and cast away! Presented in two separate parcels and featuring a modest yet well-maintained 3-bedroom home, this property is ready for immediate enjoyment. The unimproved parcel provides a tremendous opportunity for the development of a custom cabin home to replace or complement the existing residence, a garage or shop with living quarters to store drift boats and fishing gear or to serve as a guest residence for visiting family and friends. With easy access to abundant public land for hunting, hiking, horseback riding, four wheeling adventures and more, this riverside haven is waiting for a new owner seeking a peaceful and special recreational retreat to make cherished memories alongside a beautiful stretch of the Big Hole River.
