7517 Skelly Gulch Road, Lot#WP001 , HELENA, MT 59602(Lewis and Clark County)

Escape to your private mountain retreat with this secluded yet convenient tract of land. The seller has had numerous experiences with deer and elk onsite, as they seem to use the property as a travel route. Specifically, there is an unseen bench in the middle of the property with an aspen grove that affords the critters a nice, easy place to travel and bed and would provide the new owner with an amazing building opportunity. The tract is just a stone's throw from Helena (15 minutes or so) with all modern conveniences, including an airport and Costco! However, when on the property, you can enjoy the tranquility and mountain vistas that Montana is known for. The property borders and is accessible year-round from Skelly Gulch Road. Currently, an ATV-type trail/road provides access from Skelly Gulch Rd, which traverses to the top of the ridge to access the dry cabin. This road will need to be improved for normal vehicle/4X4 use and should be considered seasonal. The current owner had plans of putting a shop/shed at the bottom and, if using the cabin (on top of the ridge) during the winter, just simply using a tracked machine to get up when the snow gets deep. With vast tracts of public lands nearby, the opportunities for exploration are endless. If you have a vision and might be looking for a seasonal spot (maybe you’re a snowbird) to build and enjoy incredible views, don’t overlook this one!
