Description
Beaver Creek originates in the Bears Paw Mountains 20 miles south of Havre and gracefully meanders through the lower section of this versatile and unique property located in north central Montana. Nestled at the end of a short gravel road, the site provides privacy from the rest of the busy world, ensured by state land and historic Fort Assinniboine along the entire south and west sides. Across the creek and a mile to the southwest, history echoes through the 130-year-old buildings and parade grounds where the Montana State University agricultural experimental station now lies. Artifacts left behind by soldiers frequently surface in the creek or hide along the banks like a hidden treasure. Six generations of the seller’s family has spent their summer days in the creek floating and treasure hunting – a wall full of their findings will remain with the property. The Possibilities Historically, this tranquil expanse has served as a cherished site to escape life in town as a private family campground. Over the last 75 years, the owners have spent countless hours working with tractors, skid steers, and other equipment to clear the brush and dead trees from the land. The property was plowed, disked, and leveled to allow the planting of native grasses that are easily maintained and mowed. Thirty years ago, the property underwent a major upgrade to the infrastructure. First, a new water well was drilled and developed. Because it was an artesian flowing well, a well house was required to be built over the top to prevent freezing in the winter months. Six separate home run 2” water lines were trenched at 6 feet deep, each connected to a manifold attached to the well inside the well house with four lines going north and two lines south. One of the two southbound lines travels to the cabin and two RV hookups in the original campground next to the cabin. The second line goes to a future building site for an elevated house or wedding venue building adjoining this campground and park area that has the creek on three sides of it. The four water lines going north supply: 1) the upper home build site with its own RV hook up; 2) the four-yard hydrants and curb stops for the one acre of underground sprinkler systems that water the upper lawns. One of the yard hydrants is paired with an RV dump station next to the road that has never been utilized; 3) Going to a hydrant and curb stop on an upper build site for a shop of whatever building one might want to put on this one acre elevated area; 4) Continues further west to supply the rustic barn and corral area stopping at another yard hydrant and sprinkler curb stop. Lens 3 and 4 are accompanied by the low voltage sprinkler control wires that are run to the sprinklers control computer in the well house. Abundant Water Beaver Creek provides a variety of activities, including floating, recreational play, and fishing. The banks have been developed to facilitate walking along the water's edge, and the surrounding shrubs and bushes have been trimmed to enhance access to the sparkling waters. Additionally, the property features an artesian flowing well and a comprehensive 2-inch water distribution system. Underground sprinklers ensure the property remains well-irrigated and verdant. Dream Home Site Build your dream home alongside the heated workshop and plant a self-sustaining garden and a shelter belt for added privacy. The home site is equipped with a septic tank and drain field for convenience. Furthermore, the property includes three separate 200 amp underground electrical systems, a free farm tap natural gas system, and an underground phone line leading to the workshop area. The driveway is illuminated and fitted for an electric gate setup. Recreation For recreational enthusiasts, the property allows for easy access to nearby Bears Paw Mountains for camping and fishing with your RV or boat. On the foothills of the mountains is Hill County Beaver Creek Park, the largest county park in the United States, covering over 10,000 acres and framing 17 miles of Secondary Highway 234. There are over 100 rustic campgrounds and picnic areas to enjoy in Beaver Creek Park. Versatile, affordable, and multifarious, this property has it all! Enjoy cherished moments fishing in the creek or relishing the serene country lifestyle, perhaps alongside a horse or two. Embrace the Montana lifestyle and seize the opportunity to own this remarkable recreational paradise!PRICE
