STRAW BALES, FIELDS, FOREVER...Atop a crest overlookiing your 20 acres sits a most unique 1600 square foot handcrafted two bedroom/one bathroom home. The stucco finish gives it a charming cottage lke appearance from long ago. If you like saving money and respecting the environment, the energy efficient planning is years ahead of its time. Thickly insulated straw bale walls keep the home remarkably warm in the winter and cool in the summer. The AC wiring is supported by a state of the art Trace Inverter System to generate all the necessary off the grid power you\'ll need. Generator and propane tank included. If you wish, underground wiring is in place for solar panels or windmills. Inside the load-bearing timber frames is furniture style architecture that likes of which you may have never seen before. Its curves and contours will embrace you in total comfort. It\'s as if you\'re siting on artwork!

There is also a separate outbuilding to use for cars, horses or storage. There is lots of grazing areas for animals or just enjoy the wide open spaces. And beyond your land is a spectacular bird\'s eye view of a generous portion of the Bitterroot Valley. So out of the way. So in tune with the land. Reduced to just $299,500. You just have to see this one to really appreciate and admire it!
