Lot 251 Homestead Road
Three Forks, MT 59752

Lot 251 is less than mi from 640 acres of PUBLIC LAND, home to some of the native wildlife pictured. A conservation easement large ranch adjoins on the west, home to deer & antelope. Electricity is strictly off-grid. Installing a septic system will be buyer s responsibility. Well log for Lot 266 adjoining to the south shows 45 gpm, 148 static, 361 total depth; rainwater collection system might be a cost saving option. Elevation of 4700 is about only 250 vertically higher than international airport in Belgrade about 55 min drive away via I-90, so winter snow should not be a problem with a 4x4 for access. Covenants exist but the property owners association that enforced them disbanded in about 2012 so they are not enforced as a practical matter. A Rural Improvement District exists until 2030, costing about $300/yr included with taxes, to pay County back for paving main access road. Fairweather Fishing Access nearby enables fishing all up & down the Missouri River under Montana s open stream access law. Although seller prefers cash, OWNER FINANCING POSSIBLE with offered price near asking price, large down payment, reasonable terms, & ability to do a lump sum payoff after a couple of years; email listing Broker/Professional Land Surveyor for a Q and A list of items needed to make an offer. Many buyers of this kind of unique, serene landscape prefer to check the property out on their own without time constraints. If you are one of these, to go there on your own, print out & take with you the last picture showing access & GPS coordinates of property corners, buy a 3 x4 black & white map of Ponderosa Pines at the Belgrade UPS Store for about $8 to navigate in general terms (longer but least-hassling route is via via Roads: Clarkston, Ponderosa, Pole Gulch, Homestead), then mentally superimpose the last picture onto that larger map & go; or, alternatively, with a GPS not requiring phone reception, drive there using center of lot coordinates of 46.02552,-111.34833 (also a great building site).
