21770 Mt Hwy 35, Bigfork, MT 59911

Description

Here is a special opportunity to own a piece of Montana along the highly sought-after east shore of Flathead Lake, an area known for its cherry production and majestic views. The property currently includes a mix of income-producing cherry trees and mature timber that transition into adjacent USFS lands to the east. At the upper edge of the property, a flat bench offers an ideal location for a homesite with added privacy from the highway and panoramic views of the surrounding area. It is easily accessed from Highway 35 and is conveniently located between Polson and Bigfork, both vibrant communities offering great amenities, are just a short drive away. The property previously had a residence, which has since been removed; a rock patio remains. The owner reports an older septic system on site, though the county has no record. Power was previously extended to the property but is not currently connected; a buyer will need to coordinate with Flathead Electric Cooperative to reestablish service. A well is present, though its condition is unknown and it is not currently connected. Irrigation is in place, and the property is ready for the next owner.

The orchard is maintained by a neighbor who manages irrigation, spraying, pruning, and general upkeep. A recent count includes approximately 90 cherry trees, 4 peach trees, and 26 Honeycrisp apple trees. The orchard is fully enclosed by a high fence.

The east shore of Flathead Lake is a peaceful and scenic spot, with clear waters and views of the surrounding mountains. It's a place where you can enjoy quiet beaches, explore forests, and take in the epic sunsets over the lake. Whether you’re looking to build a home, expand your agricultural pursuits, or enjoy a recreational retreat, this property offers a unique blend of natural beauty and practicality.
