Small Farm Near Billings Montana

Lot Description

Year Built: 1910 remodeled in 1980 and 2002

Under the canape of gigantic 100 year old trees, the feeling of country living thrives on this heavenly 4.53 acre property. Once a 60-acre dairy farm, this original homestead reflects history, and offers the unique "Montana's last best place" experience. On the northern half of the property, the 4 Bdr, 3 Bath home, updated barn, original farrier shed, wooden boxcar chicken coop, multiple storage outbuildings, and a three stall corral offers plenty of room for your family. Surrounded by the sounds of nature, the riparian habitat along the banks of the water canal that divides the property, offers a peaceful safe haven for wildlife. Meander over the 20- foot bridge crossing the water canal to the southern half of the acreage. Climatically positioned, the 72'x30' High Tunnel Greenhouse and a 10'x25' Field Shed with a 4' overhang offers support for any growing needs, leaving plenty of space for other uses. Sit out on the western point of the property and enjoy the 360 degree views of the best 4th of July fireworks display as an extra bonus. Ash trees line the southern buffer zone along the property line of the neighboring field separated by an upscale deer fence with Eastern Cedar posts. There are no restrictions or covenants to inhibit any desired land use and 4 shares of the coveted water rights are included with 3 irrigation pumps to service the property plus 2 wells, one on each side of the acreage. And yet, just minutes away from this peaceful rural style property, the friendly town of Laurel offers all the home conveniences, schools, and medical services just minutes away. Follow the country back roads or hop on the freeway and find yourself anywhere in Billings in less than 20 minutes. This property flourished as an organic farm for the last 13 years, producing vegetables, berries, plums, herbs, fruits, eggs, chickens through a "sold out" CSA Program, for Billings Farmer's Market, local markets and restaurants.
