Masterfully designed on 7.14-acre parcel between Bragg Creek and Millarville and 1540 sq.ft total developed area. It sits just south of Bragg Creek and quietly opens toward Mesa Butte offering incredible proximity to thousands of acres of wilderness, and access to McLean Creek. Profoundly still this property carries the atmosphere of a rural Alice in Wonderland with natural trails, shifting light, birdsong, and whispering wind. This land is fertile, forested, and gently sloped—ideal for permaculture, micro farming, or long-view ecological stewardship. It is a sanctuary for birds, moose and local wildlife.
