Black Barrel Ranch is located less than an hour to Bozeman and features 5 bedrooms and 3.5 baths in this beautiful custom home plus there is a detached guest apartment over a 3 car garage. All of this is situated on 150+/- acres (2 parcels allowing a new Buyer even more flexibility) looking south down the famed Madison Valley to the Yellowstone National Park caldera on a clear day. Ringed by three mountain ranges (The Madisons, the Tobacco Roots, and the Gravellys) this home can be the center of your recreational lifestyle. Bring your binoculars to watch the wildlife (moose, deer, antelope, blue heron & more) as they drink from your private pond just south of the house. This property is NOT encumbered by covenants, zoning, nor conservation easement giving you the perfect opportunity to bring your horses, cattle, chickens and any other animals to create your very own small ranch. The guest apartment could also be a perfect place for a caretaker. Enjoy your evenings watching Alpen glow cover the mountains from large deck or cozy up in front of the wood burning stack rock fireplace as you soak in the quiet and solitude that living in the mountains can bring. Hiking, hunting, fishing are all out your door or take a quick drive for winter snow-skiing (3 major hills within 2 hours) or bring your boat and hit Ennis Lake. In Montana you don't just buy a property......you purchase a new lifestyle. If you are looking for the Montana Dream then be sure to see this one!
