Description

       Livingston is a historic and scenic small town known as the "Gateway to Yellowstone."  Population 17,500; a rural setting with progressive people and low crime. Intergenerational mountain community with shopping, schools, hospital, clinics, library, senior center, services, and activities for all ages. The house is walking distance to the Elementary, Middle School and High School.  Livingston is 40 minutes from skiing at the Bridger Bowl and 5 minutes from golfing.   Premier trout fishing on the Yellowstone River is a 3 block walk away.   Livingston is filled with historic buildings often featured in films.  Your neighbors will include world-reknowned artists, writers, and movie stars (we’ve seen Robert Redford cruising through town and Peter Fonda at our local bar).  In addition, this property will be a great Y2K safe haven, offering small town security and unbounded natural resources.

       The second house can help make your land payment (currently rents for $350 a month) or serve as a place for your mother-in-law or out of town guests—or start your own B & B. The backyard bungalow features a living room with large picture window overlooking flower gardens and trees. The nice-sized bedroom has two windows and a large closet. The kitchen features a linoleum floor and has plenty of cupboard space, and includes a gas stove and a refrigerator. The bathroom has a tub with a shower. A centralized gas furnace is energy efficient. The cottage is located on the back of the lot and reached through an alley, providing a completely private entrance and off-street parking.

        Surrounded by beauty, with Crazy Mountains to the North and the Absarokas to the South.   Fish, hunt, hike in million acre Beartooth-Absaroka Wilderness.  It's only half an hour from Bozeman and the University of Montana, with international airport, regional medical facilities, and city amenities with a small town feel.
