In the American West, water is the true measure of a property's worth — and few estates measure up like this one. Along nearly 600 feet of Stillwater River frontage, this 21+ acre Columbus estate carries two confirmed live springs, spring-fed ponds — including a newly developed lined pond with hydroseeded banks — a 25-GPM well, sub-irrigated meadows, and an upgraded above-ground cistern storage system: a complete, self-sustaining water portfolio that grows more valuable every year. In an era of growing water scarcity, this is how you ensure your water future — not a promise on paper, but a source you own, on land you hold. At its heart sits a fully renovated farmhouse with 4 bedrooms, 3 baths, radiant in-floor heat, and a bonus room with private entrance — ideal for guests or a studio. A 20kW Generac backup system keeps the entire home running on its own propane supply. Outside, park-like grounds with footbridges give way to open pasture, a red pine grove with the feel of a private campground, and an outbuilding complex offering two heated shops, a man cave, mezzanine storage, covered RV canopy, and an open equipment barn. From riverbank to springhead, this is Montana the way it was meant to be owned — private, productive, and water-rich for generations.
