416 5th St, Stevensville, MT 59870 listing details

Located within the heart of the scenic Bitterroot Valley of Western Montana, Stevensville has the distinction of being the state's oldest incorporated town, established in 1841. Thankfully, much of the historical integrity and personality of this quaint, historic community remains intact via its picturesque Main Street thoroughfare and within the surrounding streetscapes that truly captures the sensibility and the serenity of a By-gone Era. This well-preserved, attentively remodeled c. 1904 offering depicts the influence of the Builders of that day who largely brought their ideas of hou...sing construction from the Southern part of the U.S. The curb appeal of this Single-Level Cottage is self-evident featuring a period-look white picket fence, and the 8,400' lot anchored by towering Spruce, Douglas Fir and Silver Maple trees and old-growth flowering Lilac bushes. The covered front porch is as quaint as can be and is simply begging for the addition of some rocking chairs! The sheer scope of the 1, 849' interior is impressive, offering 11' ceilings in the original part of the home. The hardwood floors throughout the ultra spacious and altogether gracious Living Room and Dining area, along with the first bedroom, have been refinished with a deep Ebony stain which offers a lovely complement to the custom chandeliers, replete with embossed medalion bases. The front bedroom would serve equally well as a home office or study with its built-in network of shelves. The secondary bedroom, located off of the Dining area, is carpeted and features private access to the refinished, tiled Bath. The remodeled Kitchen boasts tiled floors, tiled counters, gorgeous cabinetry, custom gallery pendant lighting and room to really get culinarily creative! Adjacent to the Kitchen is a custom-tiled room that offers Washer/Dryer hook ups and room to either make it a Breakfast Room or perhaps an adjunct cozy area to curl up and read a good book. The recent addition of the Master Bedroom Wing is absolutely, resolutely indulgent, featuring a Sitting Room with built-in bookshelves, private access to the expansive rear deck and French Door access to the luxurious Master Bedroom Suite. Within this region the ceiling line is vaulted, the Walk-In closet is likely larger than your first apartment! The Master Bath offers a custom, Walk-In tiled Shower with a bench seat, a Jetted Tub and a custom vanity. Other appointments throughout this special Home: Newer windows, Metal Roofing, updated wiring and additional insulation. The rear yard is marvelously private as it's enclosed by a 6' privacy fence, yet allowing views of the Bitterroot Mountains. The Stevensville K-12 School system is just a couple of blocks away. The heart of this historic community is literally just a few short blocks away and offers a nice variety of antique shops, boutiques, cafes and even a tasty micro-brewery!
