Blacktail Heritage Estate

Set on 4.46± acres near the base of the Blacktail Mountains, this property gives you privacy, usable ground and expansive Southwest Montana views just minutes from Dillon. The home sits well back from Carrigan Lane, and a broad irrigated grass field creates a natural buffer from the road.

Mature trees line the driveway and frame the residential grounds. From the property, you can look north toward Baldy Mountain and southwest toward the Pioneer Mountains. An approximately 800-foot wheel line irrigates the grass field and adds practical agricultural value.

The homesite uses only about half an acre, leaving most of the property open for horses, pasture, recreation or future improvements. The remaining acreage gives the next owner plenty of room to expand and shape the property to fit their needs.

Historic character, updated systems and flexible living spaces give this home a personality all its own.

The Episcopal Church originally built the home as its rectory in Dillon. Around 2010, the owners moved it to its current location and updated the electrical and plumbing while preserving much of the original character. Upstairs, original hardwood floors, trim and molding still reflect the home’s history.

On the main level, the updated kitchen serves as the heart of the home with quartz countertops, generous workspace and a barn-door pantry. The kitchen opens directly into the living room, where large picture windows bring in the surrounding views and a gas fireplace creates a warm gathering space.

The main level also includes a dedicated laundry room and a spacious primary suite with a jetted tub, separate shower and wood-burning fireplace.

Upstairs, five additional bedrooms provide plenty of room for family or guests. One bedroom includes its own fireplace, and a full bathroom serves the upper level. Original hardwood remains beneath portions of the carpet, along with the home’s original woodwork.

The finished lower level adds even more flexibility. A separate entrance leads to a large living area with a gas fireplace, bedroom, bathroom, kitchenette and roughed-in half bath. This space works well for guests, extended family or additional private living quarters.

Above the three-car garage, a separate two-bedroom, one-bath apartment adds another guest or rental option. The apartment generated approximately $15,000 in short-term rental revenue in 2025.

Outside, mature trees, a manicured lawn, underground sprinklers and white three-rail vinyl fencing create a welcoming residential setting. These established grounds give the home a distinct sense of place while separating it from the working portions of the property.

For the horse owner, this property delivers an established setup that is ready to use, with plenty of room to expand.

A 150′ x 250′ outdoor roping arena anchors the equestrian improvements. Four covered and sided stalls include runs with water, while additional fenced areas around the barn and stalls give horses room to turn out and move.

Covered hay storage runs along the rear of the shop/barn, and perimeter fencing surrounds the property. A mix of metal and split-rail fencing defines the working acreage and supports day-to-day livestock use.

The layout also makes it easy to move trucks, trailers and larger vehicles through the property. A large circular driveway provides ample parking and helps eliminate the need to back trailers into tight spaces.

Because the residence and landscaped grounds use only a small portion of the 4.46± acres, the property leaves plenty of room to add pasture, expand the horse facilities, build additional improvements or shape the acreage around the next owner’s needs.

Historic character, usable acreage, established horse facilities, flexible living spaces and mountain views come together here in a property that is increasingly hard to find near Dillon.
