Lot 1004 of 21.8 acres is being sold for its “LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION”-– and for its SPACIOUSNESS & SECLUSION!! It is truly one-of-a-kind! MAY BE SUBDIVDEABLE for regaining some costs. It features a massive 4,536 sq ft metal-roofed, metal-sided, pole-barn shop for a new owner who may enjoy fabricating wood or metal products, or for storage of vehicle “toys.” PROPERTY IS BEING SOLD STRICTLY AS-SEEN, AS-IS & only the vehicles will be removed by the seller; OTHER DEBRIS ON PROPERTY WILL REMAIN. The owner hooked into the electrical grid, plus created a solar powered water well & parked their RV here to live in. Keeping existing water flowing to an outdoor pot will undoubtedly welcome a wide variety of songbirds, rabbits, wild turkeys, foxes, geese, pheasants. etc., seasonally. An uninhabitable dilapidated former dwelling consisting of 4 Bd, 1 Ba upstairs & 2 Bd, 1 Ba downstairs on a 55’x 30’ cinder block foundation exists. Owner is putting NO VALUE on for this because it could be mold ridden; pictures shown are merely to show what is there. As to LOCATION, this spread-out acreage has numerous unused places where mother-in-law quarters could be built without losing privacy of the already-improved portion of the property. Additionally, it is near the northwesternmost extreme of 18.5-square-mile Ponderosa Pines Ranch where a very short hike across railroad right-of-way to a side-channel fishing spot opposite a large vegetated island of the Missouri River where locals say fishing can be phenomenal in the fall of a year; wildlife abound on this island. So, this may be especially attractive to a buyer who likes to fish/boat/raft, or just sit on the riverbank & watch the natural peacefulness of Canada geese and pelicans’ nesting on the island & observe the eagles that like to chase them. To further add to the end-of-road privacy & mystique of the LOCATION is a deep, heavily vegetated natural seasonal stream channel on the northeast side of the acreage; to zoom in on this area use Google Earth coordinates on the big shop at 46.08783,-111.38907. Some pictures here show native wildlife. The perimeter boundary is fenced but needs some repairs. Property tax in 2023 was a low $1,305. Covenants exist but are no longer enforced by the disbanded property owners’ association. Elevation of only 4,000 ‘ is 400’ lower than the international airport in Belgrade, MT located less than 1 hour drive away, meaning winter snow accumulation is comparatively minimal.
