Not everyone wants neighbors five feet away or weekends spent sitting in traffic. Some people want horses out the back door, fresh eggs in the morning, a garden that actually feeds the family, and enough ground to live life on their own terms.

This 11.4-acre property sits on the edge of the quiet community of Ryegate, where small-town living meets wide-open Montana. Just about an hour from Billings, you’ll have the convenience of the city without giving up the peace that brought you here in the first place.

The land is perimeter fenced with decreed water rights, gated pipe irrigation, mature shade trees, a barn with a large stall, hay storage and feed room, corrals, and plenty of room to create the hobby ranch you’ve always pictured. Whether your plans include horses, cattle, chickens, sheep, gardens, orchards, or simply raising your family with room to roam, this property gives you the foundation to make it happen. The barn could use a little updating, giving you the opportunity to finish it exactly the way you want.

Inside, the 1,724-square-foot home has already seen the updates that matter. A new well, newer furnace, and tasteful improvements throughout mean you can spend your weekends enjoying the property instead of tackling major projects. Original hardwood floors bring character that can’t be duplicated, while three spacious bedrooms and one and a half bathrooms provide comfortable everyday living. A detached garage offers additional space that could become a home office, bunkhouse, hobby room, workout space, or extra storage.

When you’re ready to leave the property, some of central Montana’s best hunting is practically in your backyard. Deadman’s Basin Reservoir is nearby and well known for trophy Tiger Muskie fishing, boating, and recreation, making this an ideal location for anyone who loves spending time outdoors.

Finding acreage isn’t difficult. Finding irrigated acreage with water rights, no covenants, usable improvements, room for livestock, and an updated home at the edge of a welcoming small town is.

If you’ve been waiting for a place where you can build the lifestyle instead of just talking about it, your search may be over.

Property is located within the FEMA 100-year floodplain. Buyers are encouraged to complete their own due diligence regarding flood insurance requirements and property use.
