Home for Sale at 132 University Avenue in Missoula, MT for $1,350,000

132 University Avenue | Missoula

$1,350,000 | 4 Beds | 4 Baths | 2,456 Sq. Ft.

Built at the beginning of the Roaring Twenties, this beautiful Dutch Colonial home has graced the main avenue of Missoula's University District over decades of changes. Fully renovated, the home maintains much of its historic character while offering comfortable, modern living. Leaded and stained glass windows, original wood floors, spindles and pillars carved from solid wood, high ceilings and extra-wide wood trim all tell the story of this grand home. Although grand, the home is far from pretentious. The wide front porch is welcoming, and the warm colors and playful patterns on the walls create an easy atmosphere throughout the home. The wide, wooden staircase with original lighted banister anchors the entry of the home. The formal living room offers views to the south and is accented by a charming stained glass window. The adjacent sitting room includes a gas fireplace and built-in window bench with storage, and more large windows. The formal dining room is stunning with a slightly deeper palette and built-in cabinetry. All three rooms feature gorgeous, period-appropriate chandeliers. Beyond the dining room is the fully updated kitchen with a six-burner Dacor gas cook top and built-in Dacor wall oven. The kitchen is large, with room for a kitchen table and lots of cabinets. A half-bath, and laundry are located just off the kitchen, on the main level. On the second level of the home, three large bedrooms and a full bath provide plenty of space and privacy from the main living areas. Playful penny tile in the bathroom complements the white bead board. There is an additional, en suite half-bath in the back bedroom, a rare amenity in homes of this vintage. Outside, the amazing back garden is accessed via the kitchen and includes a stone patio with a professionally designed pergola for shade. Tons of carefully chosen landscaping, and a gas fire create added outdoor living space. A small ADU, which has a private entrance from the alley, also opens into the back garden. The studio space is on the ground level, is separately metered and includes a 3/4 bath as well as a kitchen sink, microwave and small refrigerator. The large, two-car garage is attached to the ADU but is accessed via a separate entry. This very special property is part of the historic fabric of Missoula's University District and an offering not to be missed. MTR 30053862
