2584 Lower Confederate Rd Townsend, MT 59644

Welcome to Townsend's Elk Meadow Ranch! This is truly a once in a lifetime secure hideaway retreat ranch with an FAA and military licensed airstrip. The title is Elk Meadows FAA Designator 8MT4. The unique 60.92+- acres has an extensive security system, full independent solar contingency power, along with power provided by the local utility. Hunting & fishing galore. The National Forest and Canyon Ferry Reservoir nearly border the property, with many roads & trails to explore. The 2376+- square foot custom Montana home is beautifully handcrafted with architectural timber coverings, large timer beams, vaulted ceilings and windows showcasing 360 degree views of the Elkhart Mountain Range, Confederate Gulch, the Big Belts & Canyon Ferry Reservoir. Home was completely rebuild from ground up in 2010. Imagine getting cozy while enjoying a fire in the majestic fireplace or while soaking in the master suite's jacuzzi tub. There is extensive wildlife on & around the property, including deer, antelope, elk, moose, fox, mountain goats, & many other species. A fox family makes its home on Elk Meadows yearly. The planned architectural design matches that of an old Montana ranch homestead. The 7,000 sq ft shop has many amenities: insulted, industrial lighting, a trolley crane and is complete with guest living quarters that has its own front door entrance. The 1,000 square feet guest living quarters is very comfortable with living area, bathroom, bedroom, full kitchen and washer/dryer. Additional features to property include a tack room, newly fenced & cross-fenced native pasture, a 200' x 100' riding arena and a 100-yard rifle & pistol range that is in an excavated thirty-ft-deep pit for safety. This great compound was designed & constructed by the owner of a very large commercial/industrial construction company for his own home. The property may be classified rural remote. However, the city of Bozeman is approximately an hour & a half drive, with Helena being only 50 minutes. This provides the best of both worlds...rural tranquility, with city conveniences & medical care reasonably close by. Please ask for supplemental brochures for all additional information on the Mechanical & Structural facts, Architectural features, and additional information beyond the living area.
