Land for Sale in Three Forks, Montana

Madison Valley Farm spans 1,082.5 +- total acres, out of which 602.5+- are deeded, near the Madison River in the lower Madison Valley, recognized as the least developed river valley within a 30-minute drive of Bozeman. The ranch offers sweeping views of the Madison Range and Tobacco Root Mountains to the south, the rugged cliffs of the Madison River to the west, and the Bridger Mountains rising in the distance to the east. With 230+- acres of sprinkler-irrigated acres, the property supports both productive agriculture and abundant wildlife. Ideally situated, the ranch is under 19+- miles from Three Forks, just 31+- miles from Bozeman, and equally close to Bozeman Yellowstone International Airport, Montana's busiest travel hub. The ranch is conveniently close to amenities but far enough away to enjoy privacy.

Madison Valley Farm lies just a quarter mile from the 547+- acre state-owned Greycliff Fishing/Hunting Access Site on the Madison River, encompassing two parcels across 4,300-4,600 feet of elevation. To the west, two pivots irrigate roughly 230+- acres, historically producing alfalfa, grass hay, wheat, and sainfoin. A unique feature of the ranch is that it spans from the mountain foothills along the east side of the valley across the productive valley floor almost to the Madison River on the west side. The lower Madison Valley's mild winters and minimal snowpack make the property especially well-suited for raising cattle, crops, and horses. Improvements are set between the pivots and Sloan Ditch. To the east, the property transitions into mostly dryland, with the potential to farm a couple of hundred acres and corners a 480+- acre block of state land leased by the Madison Valley Farm.
