Property Overview
Located in Montana’s Swan Valley, the Hanging J Ranch consists of 480± deeded acres. It has a custom log home with some of the most beautiful views you can find anywhere. This sizable and exceptional property has been in the same family’s ownership since 1974, it provides a combination of privacy and natural beauty set in a region with endless recreational opportunities.
The Swan Valley lies between the Mission Range to the west and the Swan Range to the east. It’s a spectacular region with towering mountains framing the valley floor. Highway 83 runs north and south through the region, and it’s considered a scenic corridor in one of the most beautiful areas of Montana. The property lies just southwest of the town of Condon, Montana. At the heart of the property is an 11± acre wetland lake, fed by two seasonal tributaries that provide exceptional beauty and quiet wildlife observation. The landscape combines timbered areas, meadows, and riparian corridors, all in a private setting with scenic vantage points.
The charming log home, built in 1976, sits perched in an ideal location, capturing the stunning views of the wetland lake and the dramatic mountain backdrop.
The ranch directly abuts 2,080± acres of U.S. Forest Service lands and is just a short 5± minute drive to thousands of additional acres of public lands, featuring 4×4 roads, hiking trails, and high mountain lakes. It is minutes from the Swan River, which originates high in the Mission Range from Gray Wolf Glacier, flows past Lindbergh Lake, and winds north through the valley to Swan Lake before reaching Flathead Lake in Bigfork.
Despite its very private and peaceful setting, the ranch is conveniently close to key destinations in western Montana; Bigfork, Kalispell, Whitefish, Missoula, and Seeley Lake are all within easy reach.
Combining privacy, incredible scenery, direct access to public lands, and a beautifully sited log home, the Hanging J Ranch represents a rare opportunity to acquire a large tract of land in one of Montana’s most coveted valleys.
