This exceptional 11.83-acre parcel captures the essence of Southwest Montana Living, where sweeping views of the mighty Yellowstone River and the rugged peaks of the southern Gallatin Range meet the dream of your future custom home. The property features a deeded private walking easement to the Yellowstone River and a level future build area with a power box at the roadway. Utilities are the responsibility of the buyer. Well and septic areas have been identified by engineering. A gravel driveway apron/pullout has been created off E River Rd with proposed easements drafted to allow for a private driveway to the property. A large rock bluff dominates the eastern half of the parcel, and the property adjoins Montana FWP lands at its eastern boundary, allowing for privacy. Light covenants that will be recorded are in draft form and are available for review. An additional 18.03-acre parcel with a 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom guest house and septic permit for an additional 3-bedroom custom home - buyer to verify - is also available for sale (MRMLS #30079016) which abuts the property along its northern edge - the combination of the two properties would offer just shy of a 30-acre parcel with the ability to build a second full sized home. Area amenities include the recreation opportunities including floating and fishing on the blue-ribbon waters of the Yellowstone River, just minutes to Yellowstone Hot Springs, minutes to the small village of Emigrant - home to the Old Saloon and Follow Yer' Nose BBQ/Wildflower Bakery, the Sage Lodge and Chico Hot Springs, and just 30 minutes to the Gardiner entrance of Yellowstone National Park. Amazing hiking, wildlife watching, hunting and exploring opportunities await on the area's abundant public trails. Located 40 minutes from Livingston shopping and amenities, 1 hour from Bozeman's historic Main Street and 70 minutes from Bridger Bowl Ski Resort and Yellowstone International Airport.
