Not often does a special piece of property become available in beautiful Montana, but just a half hour from Flathead Lake in northwestern Montana there are 400 acres on a river with abundant artesian well flowing for your horses, cattle, buffalo, or just your pleasure.

Take a journey to www.BuffaloRangeRanch.com and enjoy the solitude and the opportunity available to you with this choice ranch. Located on the Little Bitterroot River, just 6 miles from Hot Springs, this ranch land for sale in Montana could be the dream you are seeking.

If history has a sweet spot for you, this land is full of stories. It is part of the original homesteaded land of the Baxter’s who came to this beautiful valley over a hundred years ago. The building they raised their 12 children and cared for the land is still on the property. Amazingly small for such a large family, it is amazingly durable and will remain a landmark for the next hundred years.

But the Baxter Homestead is just one facet of this jewel that may interest you. Water in Montana is critical, especially for rural land. A Montana ranch must have water and lots of it. This Montana ranch has three wells, two of which are artesian. What makes an artesian well special is that it requires no electricity and no pump….God pushes the water up thru the ground and it spills out onto the ground with its own energy. For those of you that have never seen an artesian well, it is an awesome sight to behold…a hole in the ground produces an unbelievable column of water, precious water.

This makes this land desirable for several reasons:

1. Water is expensive – this is clean water ready to drink, water crops, heat your home (did you say heat your home?)
2. Heat your home – this water is WARM…it has the ability to keep greenhouses warm, heat up a home foundation, and not freeze up in cold weather.
3. Abundance – with three wells, the two artesian wells flow at 450 gallons per minute (gpm) and 250 gpm respectively….this is a lot of water, and offers the enterprising owner an abundance of alternatives for this ranch land for sale in Montana.

The land has been used as a cattle ranch, a horse ranch, a Buffalo herd live next door, and for farming. The land is rich and the elevation goes from river bottom to a hillside view some 800 feet above the valley floor. The views of mountains and the valley are amazing.
