The human experience is one of transitions and transformations that involve a most curious journey of self-discovery along the way. For many, the road to recognition of the necessity to change is curved, involves a bit of climb, but eventually discovering just the right place to land and feel right at home. Seventeen years ago the current owner of 5130 Clearview Way was on such a journey, looking to downsize, but not too much so as to compromise the largess of life, and a terrific balance was struck with this 3, 312', 3 Bedroom, 3 Bathroom, 1 Bonus Room comfortably sized residence. Situated beautifully on a 10, 728' lot, the terraced reared grounds required little maintenance, with the remainder of the landscape taken care of by a Home Owner's Association monthly fee of $100.00, which even includes snow removal in the winter months. In short, a sense of place and grace was achieved by considering the relaxed lifestyle along Grandview Way within Elk Hills in Missoula. Perhaps one of the most appealing aspects of this handsome residence is that it offers main level living at its finest! The sinuous flow of the main level is enhanced by vaulted ceilings, arched doorways, and large picture windows that beautifully frame the views, while partial walls delineate the regions just so. The heartbeat of any home is of course the Kitchen, and with warm oak cabinetry, vibrant hard surface countertops, and a spacious, casual Dining area, replete with a lovely built-in Hutch, this region of the home is altogether inviting for large or intimate gatherings. A Formal Dining Room is enhanced by a gorgeous crystal chandelier, and there's even French Door access to an upper level deck, complete with a retractable awning that's operated by a flip of the switch at the door! Smartly tucked away, the retreatable regions of the Main Level boast a private, Primary En Suite Bedroom with a large Walk-In Closet and sole access to the nicely appointed Bathroom, featuring a Garden Tub, a separate shower, dual sinks, tiled flooring and most lovely stained glass window. The Laundry Room is conveniently located enroute to the attached, finished 2-Car Garage, and offers a handy utility sink, wall-mounted cabinetry and a long storage rod for hanging up garments. Ensconced at the other end of the main level is a well-proportioned Bedroom that hes ease of access to the spacious secondary Bathroom. The altogether spacious Walkout Daylight Basement is well laid out, hosting a large room that would easilty adapt for use as a Home Theater or Rec Room. An additional Bonus Room would make for a terrific Home Library, or perhaps even as a cozy Bedroom. However, no need to compromise on sleeping quarters, as the Third Bedroom is quite comfortable in scale, while also offering ease of access to the amply-sized Third Bathroom. As if this level wasn't already fantastic in it's own right, there's also an amazing Home Workshop with custom-built cabinets, ample counter space and plenty of storage for whatever you need. An additional Storage Room offers built-in shelving, barefoot friendly carpeting and plen-ty of space for seasonal storage items. The best kept secret of the residence may be found just beyond the door that leads outside where you'll encounter a wee, private nook that offers the opportunity to steal away quietly when needed. If life as of late finds you on a journey to find just the right place to land, then please do consider 5130 Clearview Way, comfortably tucked away within the Elk Hills region of South Missoula. It's a handsome, welcoming home that prioritizes a low-maintenance lifestyle on a comfortable scale in equal measure, and the best part is that the Sellers are having a NEW ROOF INSTALLED MAY 2024!
