Welcome to Western Montana! Let’s look into the remodel that occurred 2021: The wood beams you see between the rooms throughout the house were originally the railroad crossing in Frenchtown. They were untreated timbers; they were hand planed and refinished for the remodel. The countertops in the kitchen were also custom made from the same beams, stained and sealed professionally with food grade sealant providing a beautiful and durable surface with a unique story. The floors in the living room and master bathroom are the original hardwood floors from the early 1900s; refinished by hand and coated professionally to last for generations to come. Plumbing and electrical were updated in 2021 as well, with a top of the line water treatment system that is easy to maintain along with a Rinnai endless water heater. There is an approved septic site to the North of where the house sits where the horses are currently. Do not enter the fields with livestock. The driveway, just North of the shop is a bridge that leads across the ditch to the area by Mill Creek. This is the Sellers’ favorite feature of the property! It very, very rarely freezes and provides fresh live water year around. The original barn from the early 1900’s which still works as great storage. The slough is also live, moving water and remains open most of the year making the property ideal for livestock. The irrigation ditch offers opportunity to irrigate the yard and lower pasture without using the well. The shop has a full concrete floor and is well insulated with an efficient propane heater professionally installed. The carport has a new roof as of 2022. The possibility of additional acreage is possible. Please reach out to listing agent for details. Welcome to Western Montana!

The visitor center describes how firefighters sought to find a solution to putting out damaging fires deep in the backcountry in the 1920s and 1940s. Pack animals such as mules were utilized and the Ninemile property was set up to supply pack stock and train packers. In 1980, the Ranger Station and Depot were listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Presently, the horses and mules continue to ply the mountain trails transporting people and equipment necessary for managing our wilderness and backcountry resources. The depot was modeled after those used by the US Army that supplied troops with fresh horses in the Old West. “Ride the Hiawatha”: In just over an hour’s drive, bike, or hike this trail named one of the most scenic stretches of railroad in the US.
