1500 River Road W | Plains
Set on 4 level, usable acres with 200± feet of easily accessible river frontage, this exceptional property in Plains, Montana offers a rare blend of privacy, recreation, and self-sufficiency. With no covenants or restrictions and direct access to thousands of acres of Forest Service land, the opportunities for outdoor living—fishing, boating, hunting, hiking—are endless. The main home is thoughtfully designed for comfort and flexibility, featuring one bedroom, 1.5 baths, and an additional room currently used as an office that could easily function as a second bedroom or guest space. Large windows bring in the surrounding beauty, and the back porch offers a front-row seat to hummingbird visits, deer sightings, and views of the river and mature landscape. The detached shop (22’x40' with soaring ceilings) includes separate living quarters above—complete with a full kitchen, living and dining areas, washer/dryer, a full bathroom, and a charming front porch. Whether used as guest space, rental potential, or multi-generational living, it’s a true asset with year-round comfort, including its own AC. Outdoor amenities are equally impressive: two large storage containers, a backup generator, a seasonal creek, and vast, established garden beds with fruit trees and space for growing and canning. This is a property designed with self-reliant living in mind. Both the main home and guest quarters are equipped with Starlink internet and air conditioning. Additional features include a privacy gate, boat-ready river access, potential for equestrian use, and incredible wildlife watching—from regular deer and eagle sightings to the charm of hummingbirds from sunrise to sunset. Whether you’re looking for a recreational escape, an off-grid-capable homestead, or a versatile multi-use property in the heart of Western Montana, this Clark Fork River retreat checks every box.
