Property Description

Yonder Ridge Ranch is 282± acres of secluded Gallatin Valley ranchland, just 12 miles from Bozeman. Offered for the first time in more than 50 years, it's one of the largest unencumbered holdings, free of covenants, deed restrictions, zoning, and conservation easements, to reach the tightly held Bozeman market. The ranch combines irrigated hay ground, open pasture, and timbered creek bottoms, with strong water rights and views of the Spanish Peaks, Gallatin Range, and Bridger Range. It's also great wildlife country with elk, mule deer, whitetail, and upland birds, including a winter and spring herd of several hundred elk that graze the ranch. Land like this doesn't come along often, and for the family that's held it for half a century, it's been more than just ground to run cattle on. A well-built home and outbuildings anchor the property, sheltered on three sides by Yonder Ridge, Harry's Hill, and a raised bench above the Cottonwood Creek bottoms. The ranch sits twenty minutes from Bozeman Yellowstone International Airport and thirty minutes from Big Sky, and suits a working agricultural operation, a private retreat, or an equestrian estate. For the right buyer, it's a chance to put down the same kind of roots. 282± acres in Bozeman, Montana, with dramatic views of the Spanish Peaks, Gallatin Range, and Bridger Range. 140 cropped acres, 140 irrigated and historically farmed in alfalfa, grain, and grass, plus 142± acres of pasture supporting 42 cow/calf pairs or 252 AUMs across a 6-month grazing season. Five recorded water rights including a ¾ share in the West Gallatin Canal Company, with priority dates ranging from 1867 to 1909. Wortman Creek, Trail Creek, and Yonder Creek wind through the property; the West Gallatin Canal forms the northwest boundary, with ditches delivering water throughout. Improvements include a 3,467± square-foot, 4-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home extensively renovated and expanded in 2012, a 595 square-foot detached two-car garage, and a 1,237± square-foot heated shop and shed. Significant wildlife, including a large winter and spring elk herd, plus mule deer, whitetail, grouse, waterfowl, cranes, and eagles. No conservation easement, deed restrictions, covenants or zoning; just 5 minutes to Gallatin Gateway, 15 minutes to Bozeman, 20 minutes to the airport, and 30 minutes to Big Sky.
