Property Description
Situated at the base of Mount Jumbo in Missoula's sought-after Rattlesnake neighborhood, this distinctive property offers a rare combination of history, location, and possibility. Spanning 5 lots (totaling approximately 19,500 square feet) it's an opportunity to appreciate the past while imagining what the future could hold.
The existing home offers 5 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, including a studio basement with both interior and exterior stair access. Some reclaimed doors and trim are used throughout the home, and the hot water heater and furnace replaced within last 5 years. A detached garage, additional storage shed, and established fruit trees—including apple, pear, and peach—add to the property's character and functionality.
And then there's the setting.
With incredible views of Mount Jumbo and Mount Sentinel, the property is surrounded by some of Missoula's most treasured natural amenities. Nearby trails, open space, and wilderness access invite hiking, biking, wildlife watching, and year-round outdoor adventure. Enjoy proximity to the University of Montana, local rivers, and the I-90 corridor, connecting everyday conveniences with the outdoor lifestyle that makes Missoula special.
Zoned U-R3, the property presents an intriguing opportunity for those interested in restoration, reinvestment, or exploring future development possibilities. Buyers are encouraged to independently verify zoning regulations, legal lot status, permitted uses, subdivision requirements, and development potential with the City of Missoula and other applicable authorities.
There's no pretending the first impression is polished - the appeal lies in something less obvious: the history this property holds and the possibilities ahead. Restore its character, reimagine its purpose, or explore an entirely new chapter! Five lots with one remarkable setting, and a story worth continuing!
