Ranches and other rural real estate in Montana

Home » » Montana: Real Estate » Ranches and other rural real estate in Montana

This section is for those who are really interested in putting down roots in Montana. A 640-acre ranch in Stacy, in the southeastern part of Montana, was recently on the market for $275,000. A 1455-acre farm north of Great Falls, complete with a five-bedroom, two-bathroom home and $1 million in annual crops of potatoes, alfalfa, corn, and winter wheat, was recently available for a little under $3 million. And a 1278-acre cattle ranch between Missoula and Helena (in beautiful western Montana) cost $3,250,000. This ranch advertised its location in the Upper Blackfoot Valley, a spot known for excellent fishing as well as elk hunting. It may be bought by an experienced rancher, or by a couple whose retirement dream is to operate a guest ranch. The farms and ranches across Montana are a patchwork of people who have grown up in Montana and always knew they would inherit the family farm, next door to people who have saved up their whole lives to retire someplace where they could fish, snowshoe and stargaze to their hearts' content. Both groups share a deep love for Montana's landscape, and for the rugged, wild aspect of Montana life that so distinguishes this part of the country.
