Welcome to Montana Living at Its Most Authentic. Jaw-dropping scenery, rich history, and unmatched outdoor access come together on the premier lot in the sought-after Trail Creek Ranches subdivision. Located just six miles from the vibrant town of Ennis, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home sits on 20 acres perched on a bluff overlooking the Madison Valley—offering postcard views and direct access to some of Montana’s most iconic landscapes. From the moment you arrive, youll see why this is the showcase property of the subdivision. Sphinx Mountain rises out your back window, framed by sweeping vistas of the Madison, Tobacco Root, and Gravelly Ranges. The land features mowed trails, perfect for summer walks and winter snowshoeing or cross-country skiing. The owner has even carved out personal snowboard runs off the bluff—because when you live here, adventure begins in your own backyard. Inside, an open-concept floor plan fills the space with natural light, soaring vaulted ceilings, and solid hardwood floors throughout. Enjoy a welcoming country-style kitchen with a breakfast counter that opens to the dining and living areas. A wood-burning fireplace and top-of-the-line heating and A/C ensure year-round comfort. Outdoor living includes a freshly painted front porch and back deck, varnished exterior doors, and panoramic views at every turn, plus your very own private bar and hot tub area. The property is fully fenced with jack leg fencing and dotted with plentiful pine trees, providing a natural outdoor feel and privacy. An attached two-car garage and RV hookup with water & sewer and 30-amp power offer convenience for guests. This land is as functional as it is beautiful. Keep up to six horses or cows, build additional residential structures, and add appurtenant outbuildings for non-residential purposes like barns or workshops. For anglers, the world-class, Blue-Ribbon Madison River is minutes away, with public access at Eight Mile Ford (2.6 mi) and Varney Bridge (4.8 mi). Trail Creek Ranches is a quiet 26-lot community of 20-acre parcels, offering privacy, space, and true Montana charm. Ennis provides everything from a hospital to boutique shops, coffee houses, fine dining, and year-round cultural events. You’re also 50 miles from Bozeman, about 70 miles to Yellowstone National Park, and near Big Sky Resort. If you’re seeking location, lifestyle, and setting—this is the one. At this price, seller is offering out a $10K credit to a buyer to help facilitate financing.
