Property Description

The Blackfoot River Wildlife Ranch located just outside of the ranching community of Helmville, is one of the most extraordinary properties in all of Montana! Spanning 355 breathtaking acres this unbelievable opportunity offers over 1.5 miles of private frontage on both sides of the legendary Blackfoot River, one of Montana's most celebrated fisheries producing rainbow, brown, cutthroat, and bull trout. The diverse landscape transitions from lush river bottom to open meadow and upland forest creating exceptional habitat for elk, whitetail and mule deer, moose, black bear, and grizzly bear. The property has an extensive trail system and a John Deere 4 seat side x side to tour the property and watch the unbelievable wildlife that this property holds. The magnificent home is extremely well- maintained and is offered turnkey. It spans over 9,000 sq ft of extraordinary craftsmanship updated with new windows and a new 50 -year architectural shingle roof. The main floor is designed for comfortable living and entertaining featuring a gourmet kitchen, spacious living room finished in wood accents with vaulted ceilings and large windows, finished with a floor to ceiling river rock fireplace and plenty of room for your mounts. The primary suite features a large sitting area and expansive windows on two sides, walk-in tile shower, granite countertops and dual vanity. There is a dedicated workout room, a pool hall for relaxation, and a beautifully appointed office and library. The upper level offers an executive ensuite along with 2 guest bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a charming study loft — perfect for family or guests. The walk-out lower level features a family room with a wood insert river rock fireplace and two additional bedrooms that are framed and wired and ready for your personal finishing touches. A screened-in sleeping porch, oak flooring, vaulted ceilings, and 2,700 sq ft of additional living space available for completion round out this extraordinary package. The oversized understory garage is finished with quality floor coating and the historic homestead barn has been thoughtfully converted to include an excellent shop and tool area. The larger towns of Missoula and Helena offering major shopping and regional airports are within one hour. A conservation easement held by The Nature Conservancy ensures the preservation of this remarkable habitat and the wildlife it provides for generations to come. Properties of this caliber are exceedingly rare — this is truly a once in a lifetime opportunity!
