The Romar Ranch is situated approximately four miles southwest of Columbus, off Montana Hwy 78. This one of a kind offering features a combination of Stillwater River frontage, Shane Creek, Sheep Creek and two springs all on 40 acres. The immaculate home built in 1994 has two levels with a lower walkout basement. There is an additional 24 x 40 shop along with the oversized two car garage which is attached to the home.

The property goes to the center of the Stillwater and is bound on the other side of the river by State lands to protect your privacy. The river bottoms are teaming with whitetails and it is not uncommon to see groups of 30-40 deer out your back door.

Stillwater County is located in south-central Montana and consists of 1,798 square miles with geographic features that range from the Beartooth Mountains at the southern end to the county, to the lake basins and coulees at the northern end. Elevation ranges from 3,400 feet above sea level near Park City, in the east-central part of the county, to over 12,000 feet above sea level near Granite Peak, on the southern boundary.

The irrigation is set up to efficiently water the entire acreage with minimal work. Some of the lower lying areas on the ranch are subirrigated and there is a definite potential to develop the springs into more waterfowl habitat. You will see many ducks and geese frequenting the property along with a multitude of deer. The many trees and abundance of brush cover along the riparian areas of the streams and Stillwater River create a haven for wildlife.

The home is set up so all of your living area, laundry area, and master bedroom are all on the same level. There are guest quarters downstairs complete with their own kitchen and the main level also has an additional bedroom which the current owners use as an office, so they never have to leave the main level.

Shane Creek and Sheep Creek both meander through the property and there is an unnamed tributary of the Stillwater which also cuts through the property. There are upland birds and ducks which also migrate to the area to satisfy the winged hunter. The two springs on the property keep open water year round and Shane Creek is really a beautiful creek which you can overlook from the back of the home. Rarely do you find an offering of this size which has all of the amenities of a much larger recreational offering.

The kitchen has a built in desk with lots of solid oak cabinets, a large pantry area and the kitchen has sliding glass doors which lead to a redwood deck. The mudroom is just off the garage door entry and a 1/2 bath is conveniently located across from the mudroom. The laundry area is also on the main level with lots of storage and counter space to fold clothes.

A formal dining area sets between the living room and kitchen which features tile counter tops and includes a trash compactor, disposal, dishwasher and large kitchen island. There is also a wet bar.

The living room has a pellet stove for that quick warm up but the entire home has hotwater baseboard heat. The exterior is a no maintenance vinyl siding and the living area has lovely built in cabinetry for curio display and entertainment center.

The master bedroom is huge and features his and hers walk-in closets. The master bath has a long vanity with double sinks, titled counter tops, linen storage and glass doored shower. This is not your average master bath.

The walkout basement has a full kitchen so guests can be self-sufficient and they have their own entry from the downstairs patio area which is perfect for entertaining. There are two bedrooms with egress windows and one without and a full bath. All of the bedrooms are extremely roomy.
