A rare opportunity awaits near Cottonwood Canyon—4 acres of limitless potential with no covenants, no zoning, and absolute freedom. Whether you envision an income-generating short-term rental retreat, a multi-family homestead, an equestrian estate, or a private getaway, this property offers endless possibilities. At the heart of the land sits a beautifully restored two-story farmhouse, where craftsmanship meets modern comfort. From custom woodwork and inset blinds to detailed finish work under the cabinets and butcher block countertops, every corner has been thoughtfully designed. Bamboo floors, intricate glass knobs, and a built-in pantry provide both character and function. Beyond the main house, two well-appointed single-story ADUs expand the potential for rental income or guest accommodations. Each one-bedroom, one-bath home is fully equipped with mini-split systems for year-round comfort. One ADU features vaulted ceilings, a loft, and unique architectural elements, while the other has been meticulously taken down to the studs and renovated with care. Both have their own fenced yards. Designed with equestrians and outdoor enthusiasts in mind, the property is fully set up for horses. A spacious workshop includes ample hay storage, providing everything needed for a functional horse-friendly setup. At the end of the day, gather around the campfire ring, where the sounds of the nearby creek create the perfect backdrop for a peaceful Montana evening. For those with a passion for gardening and sustainable living, the property includes expansive gardens filled with herbs, flowers, and mature trees. A greenhouse, chicken coop, and chicken run complement the space, allowing for a self-sufficient lifestyle. The perimeter is already set up for electric fencing, offering security for animals and peace of mind for owners. With no covenants or zoning restrictions, this property is an investor’s dream. Short-term rentals are fully within your control, making it an ideal setup for Airbnb or VRBO ventures. Whether you choose to live on-site and rent the additional dwellings or operate the entire estate as a guest retreat, the possibilities are wide open. Adding to its value, a detached shop provides garage space, a lean-to for extra storage, and an additional room that could serve as a home office, workshop, or creative studio. Located just minutes from town but a world away from limitations, this property is a rare gem.
