19063 Copper Ridge Trail

Tucked high above the Bitterroot Valley, this 10-acre slice of Montana offers peace, privacy, and views that stretch for miles. It's a place where the sky feels bigger, the stars shine brighter, and the only sounds are the wind through the pines and the call of the wild. Perched above it all, this land gives you room to breathe and a chance to live closer to nature. A small garage sits on the property, 16 by 10 feet, with a 5-foot lean-to shed added on—perfect for your tools, gear, or firewood. There's also a second outbuilding ready for your homesteading vision. Live your life whether that’s chickens, a garden, or a simple place to work with your hands. Water comes by way of a buried cistern system, already set up with two 500-gallon tanks, four 50-gallon tanks, and a large water container. The current owner hauls water from the Town Pump in Lolo, but the groundwork is in place for self-sufficiency. Power comes from the sun—Kyocera solar panels feed into a battery bank with a 2000-watt inverter and an Outback charge controller. A 12-volt chest freezer and on-demand water heater are already on site, making off-grid life not only possible but comfortable. There’s a big, open play area where kids or animals can roam, and a year-round accessible is a possibility even though you may need to plow after snow. Just a 45-minute drive to Missoula or Hamilton, it’s close enough to town for work or supplies but far enough to hear yourself think. This land is waiting for someone who wants to live simply, honestly, and in tune with the land. If you're looking for a homestead, a hideaway, or a place to build your own off-grid story, this just might be the one. Must have an appointment to view.
