Nestled at the base of the Tobacco Root Mountains along the banks of South Willow Creek sits a secluded 4,590 square-foot custom Benedict built home. Built in 2003, this beautiful three-bedroom stucco-sided home is surrounded by 44 acres boasting breathtaking views of Hollow Top, Jefferson, and Potosi Peaks. A unique strain of rainbow trout known for their size and scrappiness swim upstream from Harrison Lake and stack up on the property in the spring during the spawning season. Fishermen will also enjoy the stocked pond out the back door.
Any horse enthusiast will appreciate the 2,264 square-foot shop/barn with inside stalls and a tack room that opens to an enclosed paddock that leads to a five-acre pasture. Homes on smaller acreage with fishable water within an hour of Bozeman are hard to find and this one will not disappoint.

South Willow Creek Retreat is set up as a horse property. A five-acre day pasture with native grasses serves as a nice day lot with a perimeter fence around the remaining property.
Over the last 21 years, the current owners have planted over 2,500 trees including evergreens, spruce, cottonwoods, maples, apples, chokecherry, alder, beech, birch, aspens, willows, elms, bur oak, and ash. The well-placed trees create a sense of seclusion and are an ideal habitat for various animals of foot and feather.
A custom 200-year-old white oak front door adorns the entry of this Montana modern ranch-style home. The 4,590+ square-foot custom home has three bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms.
The wide entry opens into a beautiful kitchen with custom cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and concrete countertops. A large picture window lets natural light and afternoon sun into the dining area with unparalleled views of the Tobacco Root Mountains. The attached screened-in porch makes a great sitting/eating area. Across the kitchen through antique swinging doors is a large pantry.
A large sitting area with vaulted ceilings and exposed beams surrounded by big windows opens to a covered terrace with an outdoor fireplace. The 8-foot overhangs keep the house shaded and cool during the summer months.
