Townhouse in Missoula, MT

Presented as a public offering for the first time since its completion in 1999, No. 21 Brookside is a superb townhouse located in the Upper Rattlesnake area of Missoula, MT. Known for its manicured grounds, attractive water features, and proximity to Rattlesnake creek, the Brookside neighborhood has long been an aspirational location for those wishing to simplify without sacrifice. Designed for gracious living, life at #21 demands no compromises. With over 4700 square feet of space, the home is one of the largest Brookside townhouses, and also one of the most thoughtfully designed. The home offers true one-level living, along with an interior elevator for ease of access to the charming loft and expansive lower level. On the main level, the elegant living room is anchored by a gas fireplace surrounded by custom built-in cabinetry finished in a warm cherry tone, enhanced by the plentiful daylight that the south-facing windows provide. The living area is open to the formal dining room which offers access to a large deck capable of accommodating outdoor dining. The primary bedroom, with en suite bathroom and walk-in closet, occupies the far end of this level and is large enough to accommodate furniture for a private sitting area. The second bedroom and bath on the main level might also serve as an office or library. Attached, but not open to the formal dining room, the kitchen features heaps of storage, a wet bar, and a cozy area for informal dining or a less formal living area. The triple garage, rare in Brookside townhouses, is accessed via the laundry room, located just off the kitchen. The entry of the home is accented by an attractive staircase leading to 200 sqft of cozy loft space. Most recently used as an office, there is a half-bath in the loft area, and beautiful views of the mountains in the east. Of course, the elevator makes the loft easy (or just more fun) to access. On the lower level, two more bedrooms, another bathroom, and an informal living area with a second gas fireplace means when extra space is needed, it's at the ready. But the best part about this level? It's the storage. Two massive storage rooms with built-in shelving, plus a third space for a work bench, offer clean, dry, elevator-accessible storage for those wishing to simplify without sacrifice. Meticulously cared for, 21 Brookside is ready for its next chapter.
