Looking for an escape to the real Montana? Situated in Columbus, this property spans 52+ gorgeous acres and features an architecturally unique, yet warm and inviting home. Attention to detail is evident throughout. The living area opens onto a spacious front porch where you can gather with friends and family to take in the scenic views of rock outcroppings, an immense pasture and rolling hills. The entire second floor serves as a spacious primary suite oasis, featuring a full bath, laundry, ample closet space, library, fitness room, and attached artists studio/workshop. A main floor bedroom is currently utilized as an office. The 2652 s.f. of heated garage/shop space, including a vehicle lift, makes this versatile property a dream for car enthusiasts, equestrians, hobbyists, home businesses, or anyone needing serious space. The shop space could even be used to expand the home. The property also features numerous outbuildings to accommodate horses or other pursuits. Youll find two horse shelters, a hay barn, a 190x110 arena, 60 round pen, perimeter fencing, and electric cross-fencing. There’s also a dog run, greenhouse, fenced critter-proof garden, and the cutest chicken coop youve ever seen. Whether youre moving here to slow down, spread out, or reconnect with nature, you’ll love the location—right across the road from 320 acres of state land, offering room to ride, hike, or explore, yet conveniently located just minutes from town. And if youre not familiar with Columbus, get ready to fall in love. With a population of about 2,000, this friendly town sits along the Yellowstone River and is surrounded by the Absaroka-Beartooth Mountains. Columbus offers everything to love about rural Montana: peaceful living, family-friendly activities, stunning mountain views, fishing, skiing in nearby Red Lodge, all at a price point far more accessible than what youd find in larger Montana cities. Whether your passion is horsepower, horses, or other hobbies, this one-of-a-kind property offers the perfect balance of style, space, and versatility.
