282 Mountain View Road

There's a certain kind of place that feels like it's been waiting for you, where the pace softens, the surroundings feel genuine, and life unfolds a little more simply. Set on the edge of the quaint Amish community of West Kootenai, just across the bridge spanning the iconic 93-mile Lake Koocanusa, this storybook property offers a rare glimpse into a quieter way of living. In the NW corner of Montana, this peaceful setting is known for its charm. Roadside stands with fresh garden goods, homemade jams, and baked treats offered on the honor system, the gentle rhythm of horse and buggies, and the annual West Kootenai Amish Auction each June. Bordered by USFS land and just steps from the lake, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home (including an additional bonus room) is surrounded by natural beauty. A driveway lined with large pine trees creates a sense of privacy and a welcoming arrival. Inside, expansive windows and open living spaces invite the outdoors in. Enjoy evenings around the firepit, mornings in the outdoor shower, and a treehouse that adds a touch of charm. With underground sprinklers and low-maintenance grounds, this Lake Koocanusa property offers peaceful Montana living at its best. This property offers exceptional year-round comfort with multiple heating and cooling options, including a heat pump, split system for both heating and cooling, in-floor heating system, baseboard heating, and a wood stove for cozy Montana evenings. It also features a Nuvo water system, providing a salt-free water conditioning option for improved water quality throughout the home.
