31255 Ninemile Road, Huson, MT 59846

Nestled in the highly sought-after Ninemile Valley between the Ninemile Divide and Reservation Divide Ranges, this ranch is a secluded haven just 45± minutes to Missoula, home to the University of Montana and an airport. This property is part of a crucial undeveloped wildlife passage between the Rattlesnake Wilderness Area and Mission Range to the northeast and the Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness to the southwest. The 457± deeded acres, contiguous to Lolo National Forest for about a mile, boast breathtaking views, unparalleled privacy, and almost two miles of fishable Ninemile Creek frontage, creating a quintessential Montana retreat. Ninemile Creek is a major tributary of the Clark Fork, Montana’s largest river and one of the longest rivers in the state. Acreage ranges from 170± acres of timbered slopes to creek bottom, irrigated lawns, and about 130 acres of irrigated hay meadows. Wildlife traipsing through includes whitetail deer, elk, turkeys, grouse, sandhill cranes, and the occasional wolf. The current owners have managed the ranch, located in Hunt District 201, in an elk-friendly manner. The stunning landscape is only bested by the improvements, including a 2,970± square foot main home, 902± square foot log guest cabin, a barn/recreation center that sleeps 22, a rustic cabin with an outhouse, two pole-frame storage buildings, and a sporting clays course. The diverse forested area on the west side of the property includes a mix of ponderosa pine, western larch, and Douglas fir, providing a vital bedding cover for numerous species of wildlife that pass through. Elevation ranges from 3,600± feet by the creek to 4,000± feet by Lolo National Forest, bordering the ranch for about a mile.
