Offering the perfect balance of privacy and accessibility, this 5-bedroom, 3-bath home sits on 5 beautifully wooded acres while remaining conveniently located between Whitefish and Kalispell. The upper level features an open-concept floor plan filled with abundant natural light, creating a warm and inviting living space. Also located on this level are two bedrooms, including the primary bedroom featuring a bay window with serene forest views, and a second bedroom with convenient access to an adjacent full bath. Downstairs, you'll find a spacious second living area with gas stove, three additional bedrooms, large laundry/utility room and storage. Originally built in 1986, the home has been thoughtfully updated over the years. Improvements completed between 2011 and 2014 include a remodeled kitchen, new roof, updated flooring, and exterior paint. Recent updates include new gutters (2025) and updates on the lower level including new flooring, doors, lighting, a fully renovated bathroom, water heater, and pressure tank (2026). Outdoor living is equally appealing with covered back deck, firepit, horseshoe pit, and raised garden beds-perfect for enjoying Montana's beautiful surroundings. State land access directly across the street provides endless opportunities for recreation and exploration right from your doorstep. With county approval, zoning allows for a guest house (not a second residence) and offers the potential for an additional access point from Conifer Lane. Whether you're seeking a full-time residence, recreational retreat, or property with room to expand, this unique offering provides exceptional flexibility and privacy in a highly desirable location.
