About this home
Timeless craftsmanship and thoughtful updates adorn this beautifully maintained home in Missoula’s highly desirable University neighborhood. Originally built with character and substantially remodeled down to the studs in 2000, this distinctive 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom residence combines classic charm with modern improvements, custom woodworking, and flexible living spaces.
A true standout is the home's exceptional craftsmanship, including delightful custom details created by one of the talented carpenters associated with the historic Missoula Carousel. From the moment you step inside, the attention to detail is evident throughout.
The main level offers a comfortable and versatile layout with a spacious living room centered around a cozy fireplace, an adjacent office with beautiful custom built-ins, and a private primary suite. The kitchen features custom cabinetry and flows into a bright dining area that functions beautifully as a sunroom, with abundant windows that fill the space with natural light. A convenient half bathroom completes the main level.
The extensive 2000 remodel included upgrading the home's exterior walls to 2x6 construction, installing wood-framed Pella windows, and adding custom cabinetry, providing a thoughtful blend of efficiency, quality, and enduring style.
Downstairs, two additional bedrooms and a full bathroom are arranged around a comfortable den with custom built-in desk space, creating a flexible lower level ideal for bedrooms, guests, a home office, hobbies, or additional living space. A spacious laundry room adds valuable storage and functionality.
Outside, the fully fenced and landscaped yard offers a private setting for relaxing and entertaining, with custom brick walkways, a covered patio with ceiling fan, and a welcoming covered front porch. The detached one-car garage includes dedicated shop space and offers the potential to be converted to a two-car garage by adding a second overhead door. Above the garage, a 400-square-foot heated bonus room provides valuable additional space for a studio, office, creative workspace, gym, or hobby room.
Located in the sought-after University neighborhood of Missoula, Montana, this home offers the rare combination of character, craftsmanship, flexible living space, and a convenient location close to the University of Montana, downtown Missoula, neighborhood amenities, and the many attractions that make this area so desirable.
For buyers searching for a distinctive home in Missoula's University District with custom craftsmanship, a thoughtfully remodeled interior, a fenced yard, detached garage, heated bonus room, and abundant character, this exceptional property deserves a closer look....
