Property Description
Escape to your own slice of Montana high country on 5± unrestricted acres tucked into a dramatic creek canyon along scenic Highway 12 East — a short, beautiful drive from Townsend, Canyon Ferry Lake, and Helena. This is the rare recreational parcel where the hard, expensive groundwork is already done: ELECTRICITY is on site and an established domestic well (137' deep, 10 GPM, static level 35') is in place — leaving you free to dream, build, and settle in.
The land unfolds as a private green meadow cradled between timbered mountain slopes. Wake to birdsong, watch deer, elk, and wild turkey move through the draw at first and last light.
A greenhouse/shed conveys with the property, and a level building area with power and at the ready means your dream cabin, full-time home, or off-grid basecamp can take shape on YOUR timeline. With no zoning and no covenants, the possibilities are wide open — a hunting retreat, a getaway, a working homestead, or a launch point for endless backcountry adventure.
This is country shaped by fire and reborn in green: open meadows, sweeping unobstructed views, and vigorous new growth blanket the canyon floor while mature timber climbs the surrounding ridgelines. Paved Highway 12 frontage delivers reliable, year-round access — a genuine four-season property — while the surrounding public lands of the Big Belt Mountains put hunting, fishing, hiking, and snowmobiling right out your door.
Just down the road, Canyon Ferry Lake offers world-class boating, walleye and trout fishing, and sandy summer shorelines, while the Missouri River and the historic charm of downtown Townsend are only minutes away. Helena's airport, dining, and amenities keep you connected without sacrificing the solitude you came to Montana to find. Here, the night sky still fills with stars and the only traffic is the creek.
Properties this private and this accessible — with power rarely come to market in the coveted Deep Creek corridor. Whether you are searching for a recreational investment, a build-ready site with utilities established, or a quiet sanctuary to call your own, this one delivers on every front.
Bring your boots, your blueprints, and your sense of adventure. NOTE: the dry mini cabin does NOT convey; the greenhouse/shed. Welcome home.
