Property Description
Three blocks from the Missouri River, this 1,940-square-foot Fort Benton home offers plenty of character and room to make it your own. Graceful archways and a distinctive round window give the interior a timeless touch, while the practical layout includes three bedrooms—two of which are nonconforming—and two bathrooms. Outside, the 0.193-acre lot feels surprisingly spacious. The beautifully arranged yard is framed by mature greenery, with room to relax, entertain, or play. A designated garden area behind the garage is ready for vegetables, flowers, or both. The home could benefit from some updates, but its character, generous square footage, and inviting outdoor space provide an excellent starting point. A little vision and elbow grease could turn it into something truly special. Fort Benton offers far more than small-town charm. Walk or bike along the river, fish, kayak, explore the museums and historic sites, stroll Front Street, or enjoy the community’s many events and local businesses. Great Falls is approximately an hour away, making shopping, medical services, the airport, and other city amenities an easy commute. Whether you are looking for a primary residence, an investment opportunity, or a renovation project with personality, this property is full of potential.
