1320 Riverbend RD Superior, MT 59872

Remarks: Get away from the city and meander down Riverbend Road to this beautiful A-frame home, across the lane from a secret public access to the Clark Fork River. This one-of-a-kind, artist's retreat is bursting with character and charm: Rustic timbers tower over a vaulted living room that showcases an annual 18-foot Christmas tree harvested from the surrounding national forests, while a cozy wood fireplace centers the living room and dining room, which is lit by a chandelier of Czech crystal. Watch birds splash in the birdbath from the large kitchen window and French doors that look south towards the river.Head upstairs to the artist's loft where you can curl up with a book overlooking the living room and listen to the river and wind in the pines. The master suite next to it has a large walk-in closet and a roomy bathroom, graced with hand-drawn art. Sliding doors exit the master to a deck overlooking the trees and river. Look up to see bald eagles and osprey soaring overhead, look down to see wildflowers blooming along the banks and under the trees.
On the ground floor, your spacious laundry room is around the corner from the lower bedroom and bathroom.
Guests coming to visit? A dry studio cottage with electric, just steps from the kitchen entry, is perfect. Other outbuildings include a chicken coop, wood shed, and an oversized single garage/shop. The third-floor attic is currently accessed behind a hand-painted picture in the master bathroom ceiling, which pulls down for a folding stairway. But you could easily finish the attic to create a spacious third bedroom, adding stairs from the loft landing.
For fishing, floating, hiking, and picking wild huckleberries, just step out the front door. Or enjoy some of the local recreational options: You'll be within an hour of Lookout Pass Ski Area and Hiawatha Bike trails, Quinn's Hot Springs, backpacking trails to many cirque lakes (why backpack in Glacier Park when you can have a tranquil lake to yourself?), and of course Missoula city shopping and dining. This offering is on 2 lots.
