Hand in hand with the desire to own a piece of Montana with one of its fabled rivers flowing past your open front door, is the romantic vision of exploring the landscape in much the same way as it was done 150 years ago, on horseback with the sun on your shoulders and miles of prairie unfolding like a sea around you. Montana has always been synonymous with America’s western frontier and horses were an integral part of that historical period. They remain so today, being irreplaceable on many of our working cattle ranches, helping explore portions of back-country wilderness not accessible by all-terrain vehicles, pulling sleighs full of new found friends through snowy winter evenings, or simply allowing those of us fortunate enough to call Montana home yet another form of recreation that makes our friends from farther away envious of our lifestyle.
PureWest represents a series of properties where horses are not only welcomed, they are encouraged and only add to the enjoyment of owning your own piece of paradise. Whether it be a large acreage parcel that once served as a working cattle ranch or a smaller footprint property with a community equestrian facility at your disposal, the team at PureWest has the tools at hand to help you find the perfect property to fulfill your vision. A selection of our featured properties includes:
