Built in 1920, this home has been part of the landscape for more than a century. Long before open-concept floor plans and new construction filled the valley, this was a working home, built for a different era, with a different pace of life. A hundred years later, much of that history remains visible. Original hardwood floors and exquisitely detailed wood trim, reminiscent of days gone by, give the home a sense of place that new construction simply cannot reproduce. Tongue and groove wood, the proportions of the older rooms, and a classic clawfoot tub add to its unmistakable character. Two bedrooms downstairs provide additional space for family or guests, while a bonus room upstairs offers flexibility for an office, studio, or quiet retreat. Set on 2 acres, the property begins to tell a larger story outside. Mature trees surround the home, open ground stretches beyond the yard, and granite boulders, naturally scattered across the property, are part of the landscape rather than something added to it. Fencing, natural grass, and views toward the Bitterroot Valley and Sapphire Mountains give the property a feeling of having been here for a while, because it has. There is something appealing about a house that has made it through a century. It has been updated, adapted, lived in, and cared for, while still retaining pieces of the era in which it was built. The result is not a home pretending to be historic, it is a historic home that has continued to evolve. For someone looking for more than simply a house, this is an opportunity to become part of its next chapter.
