Remarks: The beauty of living, truly embracing the ferocity of spirit that's emblematic of small-town life in Western Montana is that it comes with a true sense of independence and the quiet acknowledgement that you can share in the grandeur of the setting without compromising your vision of a life well lived and on your own terms.True to its rugged setting and honoring its railroad town roots, this rustic 1 Bedroom, c. 1948 Cottage, located at 212 5th Street, is casually tucked along the graveled lane that is but a few blocks in length and set beneath the backdrop of jagged cliffs that reach to the sky. Set at the rear of the 4,025' fully fenced lot, this well-worn abode is shaded by towering Maple trees and embraced by an established landscape that can only come with time and patience Offering 732' of Main Level living space and some serious Sweat Equity potential, there's just the right amount of space within each succinct region of this 4 room Cottage, allowing you to work on one room at a time without feeling overwhelmed, while the same holds true for the straightforward lines of the exterior. Aside from the equity gain potential, the location of this offering is nothing short of spectacular, with the town of Paradise being set near the confluence of the Flathead and Clark Rivers, and just a few miles away from the locally-renown Quinn's Hot Springs Resort. The St. Regis-Paradise Scenic Byway, situated between its two namesake towns, is a most stunning 30-Mile ribbon of road that follows the Clark Fork River and is punctuated by numerous camping, fishing, hunting and watersports opportunities within the Lolo National Forest and located just a few minutes from the covered front stoop of 212 5th Street. Small town life in Western Montana is what you make of it and sometimes the grandest of opportunities can be found within the most eclectic of settings. Do yourself a favor, get lost in thought on a stretch of road that offers wide expanses of meadows, mountain vistas and craggy, canyon backdrops. Any self-respecting local will tell you that's the secret to a live well-lived and on your own terms.
