Lewistown, MT 59457(Fergus County)

This unique property is currently being used as a Bed and Breakfast, but could effortlessly be converted into a home with in law quarters or a home with a guest house. The original Log Home was built in 1979 featuring an open floor plan with 3 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms. The living room and kitchen floors is made of pine and the other floor areas are tile. The basement has a walk out bedroom with bath and there is a large room that was added to the back of the home in 1985. The home also has a newer (2003) shingle roof, Pella Thermal windows, broiler, and hot water heater. The breathtaking views from the wrap around deck showcase both the Moccasin and Judith Mountains, sunsets and double rainbows are a common summer scene. This property is a must see to appreciate!

In 1998 a guest quarters was added to the Log Home with a mudroom/dog room joining the two buildings. The new building is a one story with walk out basement which houses two bedrooms with private baths, boiler room, entertainment room, and kitchenette. The main floor area has one bedroom with private bath, gourmet kitchen, living room, dining room, glassed in porch/dining area and bedroom loft area above the garage with private bathroom. The main living area has oak hard wood flooring, while the mudroom, hallways, bathrooms, and kitchen are tile. The kitchen is a chefs delight, complete with all commercial grade appliances including: refrigerator, 48 inch Wolf double oven with griddle and six burners, dishwasher, and freezer. It also has warm cherry wood cabinets and Corion counter tops. The decks have been added to specifically enjoy the private setting and views of the scattered timber, mountains, and valleys.

OUTBUILDINGS:

The current owners have a ten run kennel for dogs with a metal roof. This could easily be converted into a horse stable or shelter for other animals. Recently, a new well and water treatment system was installed to remove the iron from the well water.

LANDS:

Over the years many upgrades have been done to the land surrounding the residence including: a new lawn with underground sprinkler system and shelter belt that is now mature with local chokecherry, cotoneaster, black currant, buffalo berry, cedar and blue spruce. There are plum trees, crab apple trees, and perennial gardens all watered by the sprinkler system. The yards are fenced to keep the deer from eating the flower beds and young shrubs. Outside the fenced lawn lies scattered timber, rolling hills, and valley views.
