A Rare Colonial Revival, Ready for Its Next Iteration | Built circa 1904 during Bozeman's early 20th-century building boom, this Colonial Revival residence was recognized by Montana's Historical and Architectural Inventory as one of the finest examples of the style in the city, a well-preserved pattern-book home with the gambrel roofline, cut stone foundation, and dormered upper story that defined its era.

The original owner, farmer and rancher John McDonnell, applied for the home's sewer connection in December 1903; more than a century later, the house still stands as a contributing piece of Bozeman's residential architectural history. This 2,688-square-foot home offers four bedrooms and two bathrooms across its historic footprint, with wood floors

and original historic windows still intact, details that speak to the home's authenticity and are increasingly rare to find. Recent updates including new attic insulation and a whole-house air filtration system through the furnace bring modern comfort and efficiency, while leaving the character of the home fully in place.

Livable today and ready for its next chapter, whether refreshed cosmetically or reimagined from the studs, the home's scale and history offer a foundation few new builds can match. Set on a third of an acre in one of Bozeman's most desirable pockets, the property includes a historic barn at the rear of the lot, complete with its own gambrel roof.

Full of charm and ideal for storage, the barn's huge hayloft adds a rare sense of place rarely found this close to town. This is a chance to take a documented piece of Bozeman history, four bedrooms, two baths, nearly 2,700 square feet, original wood floors and windows, and a storied barn included, and shape its next hundred years.
