MONTANA REAL ESTATE ROUNDUP: IDYLLIC MONTANA RANCHES

MONTANA REAL ESTATE ROUNDUP: IDYLLIC MONTANA RANCHES

Montana is known to have something for everyone, from national parks to vibrant towns, but it has also long been known for ranching. A cattle ranch provides a way of life for those who have a deep understanding of the land, the animals, and the business. It’s not easy working outdoors from dawn ‘til dusk but if you talk to a rancher about their life, they wouldn’t have it any other way.

We offer an array of ranches including these amazing properties listed below.

Horsethief Basin Ranch

Horsethief Basin Ranch spans 7,000± contiguous acres in the Little Snowy Mountains of central Montana. This ranch is capable of supporting 400 cow-calf pairs, with a trusted manager in place to handle the entire operation. The ranch could also work as a summer pasture for yearlings, which require less manpower and time. The ranch is well watered with miles of spring creeks, developed spring pipelines, wells, and stock reservoirs. There are 2 shops on the ranch, an outdoor riding arena, calving barn, and a steel pipe corral system. The main house has an 1880’s exterior but is fitted with 2020 comfort and luxury on the inside. At 8,000± square feet, the custom log house is a marvelous example of how to live in the Old West today. Two plush guest houses accommodate visitors in splendid comfort. Active wildlife management on the ranch ensures healthy and huntable populations of elk, deer, antelope, turkeys, upland birds, and waterfowl. Meadowlarks and other songbirds orchestrate a dawn chorus behind the house every morning. The property is only 15 minutes to the quaint community of Lewistown which offers a full-service FBO airport capable of accommodating private aircraft. $19,500,000

Heart K Land & Cattle Company


With the rugged Livingston Peak as a backdrop, the famed Yellowstone River forms the northern boundary for over five miles of the Heart K Land & Cattle Company. The Yellowstone River is designated a blue-ribbon wild trout fishery, and the rich habitat also supports a variety of wildlife including whitetail deer, antelope, turkey, waterfowl, and upland birds. Further enhancing the property is an owner’s residence completely remodeled to luxury standards and ideal for entertaining while still respecting the footprint of the original farmhouse. The River House, sitting directly on the banks of the Yellowstone River, offers a place to unwind after a day on the water or riding on the ranch. Additionally, there is a $15M equine event facility with a heated 148’ x 242’ indoor arena with a beautifully appointed owner’s viewing lounge warmed by a fireplace and luxury accommodations. The ranch also includes an attached 80’ x 80’ warm-up arena, 160 stalls, an adjacent outdoor arena, and a commercial kitchen. Heart K’s ranching component supports 150 head of cattle year-round.
