Maybe you’ve always wanted a big, beautifully landscaped yard with a garden, trees and plenty of grass for summer afternoons.

Or maybe you keep things simple, add a couple of chairs to the porch and let the views do most of the work. This newly built, single-level home in Townsend gives you a great place to start. With 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and 1,344 sq. ft., the home sits on approximately one acre with views of Canyon Ferry Lake, the Elkhorn Mountains and the Big Belt Mountains.

Load up the boat and head toward Canyon Ferry Lake. Spend the day fishing or exploring. Come home, fire up the grill and settle in as the sun changes the colors across the mountains. Highway access also makes getting toward Helena convenient when work, shopping or travel calls. The house is finished. The acre around it is your blank canvas. Create the yard you've pictured, build the outdoor spaces you'll actually use, and make this little piece of Montana completely your own.
