Property Description
Charming Historic Home in the Heart of Virginia City 209 E Idaho Street, Virginia City, Montana Step back in time with this unique and spacious home in the heart of historic Virginia City. Originally built in 1904 and thoughtfully updated in 1975, this multi-level family home is full of character, versatility, and potential. Set behind a charming white picket fence with a fenced yard, the property boasts breathtaking mountain views and sits just steps from the vibrant center of town. The main floor welcomes you with an oversized living and family room featuring high ceilings, vintage molding, and turn-of-the-century charm. Two generously sized bedrooms are located on this level—one with its own side entrance, making it ideal as a guest room, office, or private suite. A full tile bathroom serves the main level, while the kitchen and adjoining dining area offer a warm, family-style space to gather. Just off the kitchen is a large den/sunroom, perfect for a hobby studio, workout space, or creative retreat. A second sunporch—also functioning as the laundry room—extends off the main living space and offers additional light and flexibility. Upstairs, you'll find a massive, non-conforming master bedroom with enormous closets, attic storage, and stunning views of the surrounding mountains and town. A half bath with shower and an additional bedroom or office space complete this level, making it ideal for a private owner’s retreat, rental suite, or home office setup. The basement is accessible through the kitchen or via the alley and former garage entry. It features retro finishes including vintage paneling, shag carpeting, and a built-in bar area, along with a covered porch room perfect for a home gym or storage. All utilities are housed here, and the home is heated by both heating oil (main and upper levels) and a wood stove located in the enclosed garage-turned-workshop, which also supplements heating throughout the house. Each floor can be closed off with doors, creating the opportunity for multi-unit living, rental potential, or flexible private use. This home is being sold as is and is ideal for those seeking a primary residence, investment property, or vacation rental in one of Montana’s most historically rich and scenic towns. Don’t miss your chance to own a piece of Virginia City’s past—with the space and character to shape its future.
