this rare piece of history sits in between big timber, montana, and columbus, montana just 30± minutes to each town. with dates carved in stone (literally), this remarkable treasure dates back to 1872. the “halfway house” welcomed weary travelers on the bozeman-miles city stage line. as evidenced in the original abstract, a formal transfer to its first private owner was signed by president grover cleveland in 1886. preserved and transformed in 2012, a contemporary addition joins the south wall of the original stone house to provide unobstructed views of the white beaver valley. a manicured bluegrass lawn gently gives way to pastures and prairies traversed by a mile of spring creek and two year-round high-producing springs on 400± acres. elk, deer, antelope, and upland game abound. a passively solar-heated hanger and grass airstrip will welcome your super cub, while the rustic barn, corral, and shed provide a home for your horses. the past and present converge in this private, tranquil, one-of-a-kind property.
