Historic charm with updated modern comfort in the heart of Bonner, 10 MINUTES TO DOWNTOWN MISSOULA and the BLACKFOOT RIVER CORRIDOR. Step into a piece of Montana history with this lovingly updated three bed, one bath cottage, originally built around 1925 to support Mill workers for housing. Full of character and thoughtfully improved, this home blends its century-old bones with modern upgrades that make everyday living stylish and comfortable. The main floor offers two bedrooms, an updated kitchen with charming exposed brick, butcher block counters, concrete counters with modern appliances like an induction top range and 4 drawer refrigerator set up. Beautiful raw wood back splash and gorgeous lighting accent the space for light bright cooking and entertaining. Towards the back of the home is an airy back room that serves beautifully as a dining and laundry area, in the event you don't need dining turn it in to the perfect lounge space to take in the breathtaking views. Upstairs, a spacious bedroom retreat with a flexible bonus space which is perfect as a makeshift closet, creative studio, or home office. Stay cozy no matter the season with a newer Jotul gas stove that anchors the living space with warmth and ambiance, while Mr. Cool mini splits on both floors keep you comfortable from the first spring thaw through the last autumn chill. The home has also seen meaningful updates throughout, including updated wiring and new flooring. There are a few projects to finish up but the big items have been handled. Outside, the fully fenced backyard opens to serene views of the mountainside, your own private slice of Montana. A private road runs both in front and behind the home, adding an extra layer of distance from the main road. A newer large shed provides generous storage or workshop potential. Location is everything here. You're a short walk from the legendary KettleHouse Brewing Co. and its outdoor music amphitheater, steps from Posh Chocolat, and a short jaunt to Blackfoot River access, endless trails, and world-class recreational opportunities. Yet downtown Missoula is just 10 minutes from your front door. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence, a recreational basecamp, or a piece of Bonner's rich history, this bungalow checks most boxes.
