I’m pretty sure “unique” doesn’t even begin to cover this one. This is not your typical Missoula home. Not even close. This architectural masterpiece sits just 3 miles from Snowbowl and minutes from downtown, yet the moment you arrive, it feels like you’ve escaped somewhere entirely different. Butler Creek flows through the property, mountain views stretch out around you, and the architecture? Well, let’s just say your guests are going to have QUESTIONS. The first thing you’ll notice is the corrugated metal grain bin silos creating one seriously unforgettable entrance. Then you walk inside and… OH. WOW. 8,000+ square feet. 7 bedrooms. 5 bathrooms. Soaring 20 foot ceilings. Exposed beams. Oversized windows. Dramatic angles. Natural light everywhere. Basically, this house does not believe in boring. The kitchen deserves its own moment. Two oversized concrete islands? CHECK. Sub Zero appliances? CHECK. Double ovens? CHECK. Professional range? CHECK. Separate prep kitchen? Oh yes. Whether you’re hosting a crowd or making toast at midnight, this kitchen is ready for the assignment. There are TWO living rooms, because apparently one was simply not enough. The primary suite is exactly what you want after a long day of skiing, hiking, entertaining, or pretending you’re going to clean the house. The spa inspired bathroom includes a Jacuzzi tub and plenty of room to unwind. Need another private space? The second en suite has its own exterior entrance, making it incredibly versatile for guests, extended family, or whatever your life requires next. Then there’s the unfinished walkout lower level. Think future bonus space, gym, media room, wine cellar, or additional living space. Speaking of wellness, there’s a hot yoga studio AND a six person hot tub. Because apparently this property believes in balance. Outside, you’ve got a detached three car garage with an independent 1,764 square foot guest residence. RV parking. EV charging. A circular drive. Two septic systems. Water softener. Central AC. Starlink. Basically, the practical stuff is handled too. Then there’s the location. You’re minutes from downtown Missoula and just a few miles from Snowbowl, with Forest Service land a five minute walk away. So yes, you can have privacy, mountain views, a creek, incredible architecture, and room to spread out without giving up access to everything you love about Missoula. Unique? Absolutely. But honestly, that word still feels like it’s underselling this one.

1059 Grizzly Mountain Road, Missoula
$855,000
4 Beds ⋅ 2 Baths ⋅ 30066840 MLS
This property is truly a hidden gem in Western Montana. Located just 20 miles from downtown Missoula and situated in a private, timbered forest at the base of Charity Peak, 1059 Grizzly Mountain Road offers a considerable amount of tangible value. The offering includes four subdivided and adjacent tracts of land totaling 45.79 acres. The four tracts of land range in size from 9.52 acres to 13.47 acres and all are unzoned and free of covenants. Perhaps most importantly, each tract of land shares a property line and access into the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribal Land and subsequent access into US Forest Service land. Therefore, with the appropriate licenses, the new owners of this property will be able to experience 8,000 acres of rugged, Montana wilderness - from the literal back steps of this property. Beyond immediate access into Montana's forests, this property also features a year round creek, the Sim Heh Creek. "Sim-Heh", which is Salish for Grizzly Bear, is the name of a quietly meandering creek that bisects three of the four tracts of land. The water from this tributary creek is channeled in order to build a +/- 42 foot diameter pond that is located directly behind the primary residence on this property. And one should note that the current owners of this property have a provisional water right permit from the DNRC for 1-acre of lawn and garden irrigation from this water reservoir. In addition to the land, pond, and year-round creek, the new owners of this property will also enjoy the value and comfort of a very functional, charming, and solidly built 4 bedroom, 1 1/2 bathroom residence as well as a generously sized shop. The shop is insulated, finished, and is approximately 1,200 square feet in size. It offers a 10' foot garage door, propane heater system (not currently hooked up to propane), numerous cupboards, benches and work spaces - this shop space is honestly just waiting to be brought back to life! And last but not least, the home on this property is really quite lovely. If you are handy or looking to remodel, it is honestly hard to overstate how much potential this home has! The main level offers a very sizable living room, dining room, and a large main level bathroom. The kitchen features solid wood floors, plentiful wood cabinetry with hand-painted embellishments, and spectacular views of the Mission Mountains. Adjacent to the kitchen and dining room space is a long and decent-sized bonus space that is approximately 361 square feet. This space could function as a remarkable sun room, mud/gear room, or perhaps one would want to incorporate the square footage into the existing kitchen and dining room - which would make both spaces quite grand and impressive in scale. All four bedrooms are located upstairs along with a pleasant and practical half bathroom. Three of the bedrooms are very cozy, suitable, and respectable in size. The fourth bedroom has an L-shape layout and would function nicely as an in-home office, craft room, art space, or a nursery. Outside you'll appreciate the six separate out-buildings which offer a multitude of uses and nearly never-ending storage space. Lastly, the new owners of this property will certainly appreciate the low utility costs. The home is connected to a well system which was drilled in 1995 and the attic space received twelve inches of new insulation in 2021. These improvements combined with the home's wood burning stove keep the utility costs very low while ensuring warmth and comfort throughout the winter. Located just 1.5 miles up a well-maintained dirt road, this property offers genuine privacy and considerable value. Perhaps you're looking for a personal homestead and a sanctuary from the chaos of our world. Or perhaps you'd like to explore the possibility of purchasing now but plan to sell the tracts of land separately in the future. Whatever your plan, 1059 Grizzly Mountain Road with its lovely 4 bedroom residence, generously sized shop, 45.79 acres of land, and year round creek, is certainly a property worth considering.
