Some of the most authentic life moments are to be found when you intentionally disconnect from the structured confines of the urban landscape of Missoula, and some of the best life stories told when nothing is said at all. Go ahead, reconnect with the natural beauty that lies just beyond the city limits, and find the part of yourself that yearns to experience a slower, more measured pace in life that only a rural setting can offer. You needn't look further than 1085 Spurgin Court, located in Target Range, near the Kelly Island Fishing Access of the Bitterroot River, where you'll discover a handsome, c. 1983, 4 Bedroom, 3 Bathroom 2,528' residence, whose subtle architecture refuses to upstage its idyllic setting.
Sentries, 40 years in the making, of Lilacs, Rounded Pines, lanky Junipers and a rotund Blue Spruce flank the entrance of the grounds, yielding to a meandering path adorned with mature Rose bushes, flowering shrubbery, all graced by the shade of a sweet Plum tree. Despite its traditional silhouette, the interior of this comfortable residence is a study in contrasts, with the expectation of linear, retreable regions clearly met, as the main level offers the first bedroom and bathroom tucked away within its own wing, just off the foyer. On the upper level, the Primary Ensuite Quarters is quite spacious, offering a trio of closets, with a full, walk-in closet tucked away on its own.
The secondary bedrooms are safely ensconsed at the opposite end of the upper level hallway, with each, linear space accorded its own, outrageously beautiful view and ease of access to the third Bathroom.
However, it's the public living quarters of the residence that defy expectation, with the Living Room quite literally taking center stage in the spotlight, as the gallery lighting and the two-story, partially vaulted and wood beam accented ceiling line draws the eye upward, while the expanse of windows beautifully frames the stunning views of the expansive, well-established grounds; all balanced by the warm and inviting, floor-to-ceiling, Brick Fireplace that beautifully accentuates the sense of scale within this incredible space.
Located on the main level of the west wing of this comfortable offering, you'll encounter cottage-paned, French Doors that offers a genteel escape to the Sun Room, an inviting retreat whose vaulted ceilings, skylights and myriad of windows bring the outdoors in, while the Saltillo tiled flooring adds warmth and character to this awesome retreat, boasting it's own private access to the gorgeous grounds.
With the posterior of the brick hearth of the Living Room fireplace serving as a wall, as well as the focal point of the communal space of the Dining Room and the comfortably-sized Kitchen, it's readily apparent that this region will play host to many a memorable gathering over the years to come.
Recent interior upgrades include all new, Cascade, heavy-grade, vinyl plank flooring throughout the main level, while the upper level has benefitted from the includion of luxe, barefoot friendly, carpeting throughout the bedrooms and along the hallway and stairwell.
The exterior of this altogether inviting abode was painted just last year, and the installation of a newer roof esnsures peace of mind that as construction materials costs continue to rise, some large ticket items have been tastefully dealt with. However, the Sellers certainly spared no expense in the recent inclusion of a top-of-the line, wrap-around deck, adorned with Pergola accents, as the connection of the interior and exterior living spaces is strong.
The fully fenced rear grounds of this exceptional 1-Acre retreat are graced with a plethora of Lilac bushes, soaring Black Cottonwoods, mature Maple, Cherry, Apple and Pear Trees and stunning, panoramic views of the not-so-distant mountainsides and include multiple raised garden beds and an oversized Chicken Coop that is ova the top; sorry, couldn't resist that one!
A 1 1/2-story outbuilding, replete with a cement pad, 220-amp power and an insulated Loft, anchors the rear of the property, and with some finish work, would make for a fantastic art, music, writing or yoga studio space!
There's even a well-established and well-loved Firepit area , (stumps included), as well as a carefree swing tethered to a large branch of a nearby tree, while a private gate leads you beneath the canopy of Old-Growth Cottonwoods,and down to a channel of the Bitterroot River. A Birder's Paradise, the Sellers have counted no less than 88 distinct species over the years, including Blue Herons, Bald and Golden Eagles, Great Horned, Pygmy and Barred Owls, just to name a few.
The time has come for you to start living your most authentic life when you intentionally disconnect from the structured confines of the urban landscape of Missoula, while experiencing a deep sense of place, quietude and gratitude within the tranquil, living, breathing landscape of 1085 Spurgin Court. The setting is magical and the offering incomparable, and your story begins now.
