The Clearwater Meadows Ranch subdivision is located off of Highway 200 - sixteen miles from Seeley Lake and 36 miles from Missoula. Touching the Nature Conservancy to the north which allows public use and hunting, it is in the backyard of two prestigious wilderness areas and world-class trout streams. With preliminary approval already acquired, twenty lots ranging from 3 to 20 acres can be subdivided and developed through-out this former ranch upon final approval. This investment offers developers a wholesale development property in a high barrier-to-entry county for subdivisions. With over 1800' of road frontage on Highway 200 and an AADT of 3,524 - this roadway experienced 25% growth in 2021 according to the Montana Department of Transportation. Over 130 acres of this ranch is gently sloping, sparsely timbered, high quality pasture land with mountain views - offering buyers ranching and homesteading opportunities in a premier location. Less than an hour from an international airport - enjoy living adjacent to wild western Montana wildlife while maintaining access to amenities. Although this property has potential for a variety of land development applications, the ideal land uses would be the development of a premier ranch, the development of multiple "mini" ranches/homesteads, or the development of large, premier home-building lots. Final approval is in process for the current subdivision plan, but lot boundary modifications are still possible at this time. Health Department approval has been obtained for septic systems on the property. Nearby well logs indicate static water levels between approximately 30' - 45' with some yields averaging around 30 gpm. The property is "unzoned."Old ranching/farming buildings, homes, and trailers are located on the northeast side of the property along Vannoy Lane.
