Located just a few minutes south of Missoula, the Hayes Creek region is one of the Garden City's genuine treasures, offering a sought-after semi-rural setting that is embraced by the nearby mountains, punctuated with soaring pines, offering stealth access to the Blue Mountain Recreational Corridor, and is also easy walking or biking distance to 41 miles of trails that are laid out beautifully over 5,500 Acres. This highly desirable enclave offers a mix of stately and gracious homes that are deftly tucked away beneath the same canopy of the old growth Ponderosas and Douglas Firs, yet juxtaposed in such a way that it defies the conventional norms found so often in the urban landscape.

Even the wide expanses of wall space and adjustable lighting were taken into consideration in order to properly showcase fine art, but also the commissioned pieces of Stained Glass "Window" panels that are featured within the Formal Dining Room, and the main Level Home Office/Solarium. The Primary Ensuite Bedroom is rightfully indulgent in scale, boasting a custom crafted wall-length, built-in Dresser and suite of drawers, private access to the wrap around deck, a large Walk-in closet, and a private Bathroom that eschews pretense, instead offering a Garden Tub set beneath a hand-laid brick surround, along with a separate shower, with just enough space to feel properly pampered, and diffused light filtered through a final stained glass window, and also from the skylight above the Soaking Tub. Across the corridor, one of the 3 remaining bedrooms does not compromise one iota on size, allowing for the placement of large furnishings and plenty of overage of space to decorate as you see fit, and a nice duo of closets with a deep storage capacity. A full-sized Bathroom services this floor nicely, offering a separate Bathtub and Shower, Dual Vanities, plenty of counter space, and ample storage for bath towels and toiletries. The lower level, Walkout Daylight Basement boasts another 2,100' of generously proportioned living quarters and plays host to an ultra spacious, warm, and welcoming Living Room, two amply sized Bedrooms, both of which are Ensuite; One houses its own private Sauna and also features a large Sitting Room, while the final and 4th Bedroom is currently utilized as a professional Artist's Studio; the light is a dream, and the storage remarkable!
