143 Joe Abbey Lane, Darby, MT 59829

Property Description

A 1.48-acre parcel just outside Darby, offering open, usable ground. Whether your vision is a hobby farm, a homestead, or an investment hold, this property gives you room to build it. Bordering Little Dipper Ranch, with peek-a-boo views of Trapper Peak and nearby Tin Cup Creek, the setting is open, quiet, and close to everything. The land carries real history. It was carved from a larger family parcel, and there is a 1959 trailer home wrapped with a well-built house, blending into a functional living space, a spacious entry/mud room, a large gathering room, and a comfortable bedroom, with the original trailer footprint still holding an updated kitchen, full bath, laundry, and a second bedroom. That existing structure gives you options: live in it while you plan, remove the trailer portion and finish the house, or clear the site entirely and put a new home. A historic dry cabin (once a rental) but now a woodshop and several outbuildings add more flexibility, storage, animal housing, or a creative space, without adding to your build list. Location-wise, you're minutes from Darby's Main Street, close to the Bitterroot River for blue-ribbon trout fishing, near trailheads into the Bitterroot National Forest, and a short drive to Lost Trail Powder Mountain. Room to spread out, with town, river, and mountains all within reach. This is an Estate sale, offered as-is, and a 75% LTV loan structured like a land loan is one option available for financing also a construction loan is a viable lending option.
