Built with care and held with pride, this home has belonged to a single family since the day it was completed. Now, for the first time, it's ready to welcome new owners and a new chapter. Tucked into the beloved Orchard Homes neighborhood in Missoula, this charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath home sits on just over an acre land, with the elbow room and open skies with a quick trip to amenities. Sweeping views stretch in every direction, and the beauty of the Target Range corridor surrounds you, even as everyday conveniences sit just down the road. Step inside and you'll find a home that carries the hallmarks of 1950s craftsmanship, solid construction, thoughtful proportions, and the kind of quality that simply isn't built into homes the same way anymore. Over 1,000 plus square feet spread across the main level offers a generous, livable layout. Big windows flood every room with natural light, and a bright, open kitchen is ready for everyday meals and slow weekend mornings alike. Beneath the carpet, original hardwood floors are waiting to be revealed and restored to their former beauty. Downstairs, the basement opens up a world of possibility, add a second living room, create a dedicated hobby space, or simply enjoy the abundance of storage. Outside, a detached two-car garage runs alongside a gorgeous row of mature lilac trees that put on a show every spring. The property is partially fenced and comes with recently marked survey pins, a head start for anyone looking to add animals, a garden, or more defined outdoor space. Over an acre with no HOA means the land is truly yours to use as you see fit. The location is one of Missoula's best-kept secrets. Turner Farms and Caras Nursery are just down the road, Orchard Homes Market is close at hand for locally produced goods, and The Trough is right around the corner when you're in the mood for a night out. It's a neighborhood with deep roots, strong community, and wide-open land, becoming increasingly rare. This is a property with soul and history and plenty of room to make it your own.
