Joliet Cutacross Ranchette – 287 Acres of Privacy, Wildlife, and Montana Living
Tucked away just 10 miles from Joliet, Montana, along the quiet stretch of Highway 421 known locally as the Cutacross Road, the Joliet Cutacross Ranchette offers a rare opportunity to own 287 acres of productive ground, rich habitat, and peaceful seclusion. Whether you’re a small-scale operator, an outdoor enthusiast, or simply seeking a quieter pace of life, this property delivers a well-rounded combination of functionality, beauty, and privacy.
Recreation and Wildlife
This part of south-central Montana is known for its diverse terrain and abundant wildlife, and this property is no exception. The land is home to elk, mule deer, white-tailed deer, turkeys, black bears, upland game birds, and other native species. The mix of open fields, timbered pockets, a strong seasonal spring, and crop ground creates ideal conditions for wildlife to thrive, offering excellent recreational potential for hunting, wildlife watching, or simply enjoying nature right outside your door. This properties lies at the base of Shane Ridge, known to locals for the great numbers of elk and other wildlife.
A Comfortable Log Home with Modern Updates
At the heart of the property sits a custom log home with over 3,000 square feet of living space spread across three stories. Originally built in 1987, the home features 4 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, and two living areas, making it well-suited for full-time living, hosting guests, or multi-generational use.
French doors lead out to a wraparound deck that captures panoramic views of the property’s dryland crop fields and surrounding hills. It’s the perfect place to watch deer and elk move through the meadows or to take in the Montana sunset with a cup of coffee or a glass of wine.
The home has recently undergone thoughtful renovations, including a complete kitchen redesign with high-end appliances, refinished hardwood floors, new carpet, and fresh paint and texture throughout. The updates provide modern comfort while retaining the warmth and character of the original log construction.
Ample Storage and Workspace
A brand-new 40x60 shop, constructed in 2024, offers oversized overhead doors and ample room for storing equipment, tools, recreational vehicles, or hobby gear. Whether you're managing livestock, farming a portion of the ground, or just need space for your toys, this shop checks the box.
End-of-the-Road Privacy
Located near the end of a lightly traveled rural road, this property enjoys an exceptional level of privacy, with only a few neighboring landowners in the area. It’s the kind of place where the only traffic is wildlife passing through and t,he quiet is broken only by the wind or a gobbling Merriam's turkey.
