Fronting the Continental Divide and privately positioned just minutes from Helena, Montana’s capital city, this rare 120-acre retreat, contiguous to 59,000 acres of Forest Service land, sits within an active wildlife corridor and offers expansion potential to 160 acres (MLS #410028) -- an exceptional combination of privacy, access, and flexibility rarely found this close to town. Elk, deer, moose, and bear are regularly seen throughout the seasons, reinforcing the sense that this property sits within a true Montana landscape. Unlike many large-acreage properties near Helena, the land is unencumbered by conservation easements or restrictive covenants, preserving freedom, long-term planning, and future ownership goals. The oversized shop—with a 16’ wide by 14’ high overhead door—includes guest-ready living space and RV hookup, supporting equipment storage, multi-generational use, or potential income-producing flexibility. Inside the home, single-level entry with no steps, accessibility grab bars, and a curbless wet bath support long-term livability. A dedicated home office with Divide views provides an ideal remote-work setting and can function as a third bedroom if desired. Located approximately 5 miles from downtown Helena and just minutes from Broadwater Hot Springs, the property combines rural privacy with everyday convenience. Grocery and household delivery services, including Walmart and DoorDash, are available at the residence—an uncommon advantage for acreage of this scale and setting.

There are plenty of luxury homes. There are very few places where you can watch the sun rise over Canyon Ferry Lake, saddle your horse after breakfast, spend the afternoon on the water, and return home to nearly 7,000 square feet of comfort and craftsmanship. Set on 10 private acres overlooking Canyon Ferry Lake, this custom 6,958± square foot estate was designed for those who want room to breathe, room to entertain, and room to enjoy the things they love without compromise. The moment the gate opens, and the home comes into view, the setting speaks for itself. Towering timber accents, manicured grounds, and panoramic lake and mountain views create an arrival experience that leaves a lasting impression. Inside, walls of glass bring the outdoors into nearly every major living space. Morning coffee comes with sunrise reflections dancing across the lake. Evenings are spent watching changing colors move across the mountains while wildlife passes through the surrounding landscape. The kitchen was built for gathering, featuring Italian Esmeralda granite, travertine flooring, Viking and Subzero appliances, and the kind of space that naturally becomes the center of holidays, celebrations, and family visits. Four private bedroom suites each offer an en suite bath, walk-in shower, and walk-in closet, creating exceptional comfort and privacy for family and guests. When it's time to entertain, the options are endless. Host movie nights in the dedicated theater with a 220-inch screen and premium sound system, enjoy a game of pool with friends, or simply open the doors and let the views become the evening's centerpiece. Outside, the property continues to impress. The barn includes four stalls, heated automatic waterers, a wash rack, tack room, rubber mat flooring, and fenced pastures. The heated 36x36 shop provides space for boats, RVs, vehicles, equipment, and recreational toys. Canyon Ferry Lake is just 1.6 miles away, offering boating, fishing, and endless days on the water. Forest Service land is only 0.22 miles from the property via the adjoining open space easement, providing convenient access to hiking, horseback riding, hunting, and exploration. Properties that combine luxury living, horse facilities, recreational access, privacy, and commanding Canyon Ferry Lake views are rarely offered in a single package. For the buyer seeking all of those qualities without compromise, the search may very well end here.
