Hoyt Ranch Painted Robe Creek - SOLD!

Scenic Recreational and Grazing Use

Painted Robe Creek Parcel

If you’re looking for a small, end of the road property that has a good mix of recreational amenities and agricultural benefits, in an area where prices are less influenced by mountain views and trout, and more about productivity and value, we invite you to look at the Painted Robe Creek Unit of the Hoyt Ranch. This is a very scenic 1,120 deeded acre parcel, good for grazing and recreational use. It is fenced into 4 pastures and is mostly grass but also has about 200 acres of timber. The Painted Robe Creek, which is a tributary of the Musselshell River, runs through the property for about 1 ½ miles and has live water in it most years as well as a bridge for good vehicle access. The creek provides a lot of habitat for wildlife and the creek bottom area is quite scenic. Tucked away in the timber is a small, but recently built one room cabin with no utilities or running water that the current owners enjoy using for hunting, relaxation or for recreational purposes. Elk will use the property more late in the season and deer can be found year round along with many other small game and bird species. The property is easily accessed from the SE Bench Co. Road and has a small set of working pens, several sheds, 3-steel granaries, two wells (one main-line powered with storage at the corrals and one solar well with storage). This scenic and well balanced small cattle, farming and recreational property is located about 4 miles southeast of Lavina, MT in a region known for good grass, small grain farming and oil seed production, as well as upland bird and big game hunting. It is fenced into 4 pastures, nicely sodded in native and improved grasses. The creek provides a lot of habitat for wildlife and the creek bottom area is quite scenic. Tucked away in the timber is a small, but recently built one room cabin with no utilities or running water that the current owners enjoy using for hunting, relaxation or for recreational purposes. Located in deer & elk hunting district 590 and antelope hunting district 576 of Montana Fish & Wildlife Region 5. Elk will use the property more late in the season and deer and antelope can be found year round. Upland bird enthusiasts will find sharp tailed grouse and Hungarian partridges throughout the sagebrush and grass portions of the ranch. Plus, this property is benefited by bordering a full section of State Land. The property is easily accessed from the SE Bench Co. Road and has a small set of working pens, several sheds, 3-steel granaries, two wells (one main-line powered with storage at the corrals and one solar well with storage).

Broker’s Comments

This relatively undiscovered area of Montana presents an investor with a great opportunity to own a productive farm/ranch that is only about 40 minutes away from Billings, MT yet, far enough away you’re able to enjoy the peace and quiet of Montana. Other than the cabin and the livestock improvements this property is undeveloped. It would make a great place to build your dream home and enjoy the best of what Montana has to offer at an affordable price.
