7445 Cherokee Court, Lolo, MT 59847 - Missoula County

The sheer beauty that typifies the Western Montana landscape is one of rugged mountains, wild meadows, and a sense of peace, calm, and of belonging that only a forested mountain setting can offer, and there's truly a comfort in finding the place to call home in the process. Incredibly, just a 10-minute drive south of Missoula, along the ribbon of Highway 93 that follows the curves of the Bitterroot River, will lead you to 7445 Cherokee Court, a remarkable 4 Bedroom, 3 Bath, 2,792' remodeled offering that's sited beautifully on a 6.09 Acre, private woodland parcel. Towering Pines, native grasses and an undulating terrain informed the brilliant placement of this handsome home, offering an elevated lifestyle and a haven of raw, rugged beauty and sense of quietude that can only be found in the woods. The sense of privacy is so strong,hat it's easy to forget the town of Lolo is just minutes away at the base of the mountain, with a well-maintained county road to get you there! It's readily apparent that a great deal of thought went into the design and placement of this distinctive residence, offering a subtle, relaxed, and welcoming introduction sequence that creates a sense of anticipation for what lies beyond the casually elegant foyer. Vaulted ceiling lines, a myriad of windows, tasteful Hickory Hardwood flooring and warm earth tones throughout the main level work beautifully together, creating an earty vibe that's altogether suitable to its sylvan setting. In 2017, the Kitchen was completely remodeled, incorporating luxe touches such as Granite countertops, a tiled backsplash, a smartly designed Cooktop Peninsula, and an abundance of richly hued, soft-close cabinetry nd storage. The adjunct Dining Area offers ample room to host the largest of gatherings, or to scale down to a more intimate setting, allowing for an overage of space to furnish the adjoining, comfortably sized Living Room. Separating this region from a secondary Living Room, , a unique see-through Gas Fireplace is clad in gorgeous River Rock at it's base on one side, while the other aspect boasts a custom-designed and built Wood frame, both of which are beautifully capped with a most tasteful and unique arch. Discreetly tucked away around the corner from the Kitchen, and located just off of the attached 2-Car Garage, a well-appointed Laundry Room and custom-built Butler's Pantry awaits, offering private access to the expansive deck and a sweet view of the nearby mountainside. Anchoring the southern end of the main level, a most spacious and gracious remodeled Primary Bedroom Suite is sure to impress, offing a Walk-In Closet, and an additional closet, access to a private deck, and private access to a fully reconfigured Spa-inspired, custom-designed Bathroom that offers a duo of custom-built, Granite-topped Vanities, gorgeous flooring, and artisan tiled Tub/Shower surround. The retreatable regions of the residence are housed within the bright and airy Walk-Out Daylight Basement that offers newer carpet throughout and plenty of space to relax in the oversized Family Room, with the remainder of the three bedrooms comfortably and independently located from one another. A widely arched doorway leads to a roomy Den, and there's still additional space, dubbed "The Book Nook" to house the largest of book collections and room for a comfy chair to enjoy them. In 2016, both decks were rebuilt, a Radon Mitigation System was installed, and in recent years a new roof was put on, new insulation put in, the Gas (Propane) Forced Air Furnace and the Central Air Conditioning systems were replaced, and the interior and the exterior of the home was painted. Having an oversized Two-Car Garage with an adjunct Shop with built-in work tables and cabinetry has been an added bonus to this creative household of two! Knowing that it'd be a crime to not take advantage of the natural beauty of the setting, a hammock was strung up between two strong Pines, creating the perfect restful spot to doze off to the breeze cruising through the canopy of the trees, and to the lullaby sung by the birds on the nearby branches. After relaxing and/or entertaining on the wide expanse of the deck, take a few steps down to the well-established Firepit, pull up a wood stump, open the beverage of your choice and enjoy the company of good friends and family on into the evening, swapping lies, lore and the music of life. When the temperatures recede in the colder months, you're sure to enjoy the privacy and indulgence of the altogether private Hot Tub that's tucked away on the expansive deck, with ease of access to the warmth of the interior of the home. The undulating grounds, punctuated with towering pines, and criss-crossed by wild game trails, beckons your inner child to go outside and to explore the grounds of the 6.09 acre parcel to your heart's content, no matter the season and for whatever reason you see fit. The sheer beauty that typifies the Western Montana landscape is one of rugged mountains, wild meadows, and a sense of peace, calm, and of belonging that only a forested mountain setting can offer, and there's truly a comfort in finding the place to call home in the process.
