2110 Wylie Ave, Missoula, MT 59802 listing details

Influenced by the Arts and Crafts Movement of the Early 20th Century, the Pueblo Style of Architecture was born of pure simplicity and respect for the placement of its setting within the landscape. Although the actual year of construction of 2110 Wylie Avenue is unknown, it clearly represents a most marvelous melding of Southwestern elements (Stucco Siding, Exposed Tile Roofing, Ornamental, Heavy Wood Doors) while incorporating more of the decorative motifs more often found within the Art Deco and Art Moderne Movement (Glass Block Windows, Arched Doorways, Rich Oak Hardwood Flooring and... a liberal use of Tiles, Mosaics and Decorative Fixtures). The location of this stunning Southwestern Pueblo Style offering is outstanding as it is juxtaposed "just so" in order to take full advantage of the backdrop of Missoula's beloved Mount Jumbo while taking unabashed advantage of having no other homes within its primary view shed. Just the "Green Screen" of lush landscaping, the canopy of trees in the neighborhood and the rushing sounds of Rattlesnake Creek just a couple of blocks away. A formal, Mosaic-Tiled entrance offers a fine introduction to the spacious and gracious Living Room that boasts beautifully finished Oak Hardwood Flooring and a fantastic Built-In Side Board Hutch that's accented by Glass Block window borders, curved arches and plenty of windows to admire the parklike grounds, the scenic streetscape and the in-your-face views of Mount Jumbo. The Formal Dining Room offers the same gorgeous floors, more Glass Block accents, with the focal point being placed on the original, decorative Art Deco Sconces and Chandelier. A large bedroom is tucked away within this region, offering ample closet space, oak hardwood floors, plenty of built-ins and a delightful, tiled, tiled accented Bathroom at your disposal. The thoughtfully updated Kitchen is spacious in scope and offers such grand appointments as Granite Counters, tiled floors with a detailed smaller tile border, a roomy Breakfast Bar, a Granite-topped "Side Board" and plenty of room for a large dining table. The lower features brand new carpeting throughout the two secondary bedrooms, both of which offer good light and there's a finished "Bonus Room" that would make a great Home Office/Study Area. Servicing this region is a tiled bathroom with a Full Shower and there's ample secondary storage areas throughout the basement to streamline the clutter of life! The lush, landscaped grounds are incredible and offer a nice mix of custom metal fencing in the front and wood privacy fencing as a border. The curve of the front pathway seques perfectly to the hand-laid paver patio and pathway that leads to the private back yard. Towering Birch, Douglas Fir and fully Mature Shrubs and greenery accent the park-like grounds which truly benefit from the underground sprinkling/drip system in place. The oversized Double Garage sits at the rear of an outrageously large, paved driveway and parking area and offers a built-in work bench and plenty of storage for all of your "Montana Toys!" There's a reason that the Lower Rattlesnake is a perenial favorite for Locals and that is the ease of accessibility to numerous, iconic Missoula outdoor offerings: The Rattlesnake Wildnerness Trail Head, Mount Jumbo, Bugbee Nature Preserve, Tom Green Memorial Park, Pineview Park, and Missoula's "Crown Jewel"....Greenough Park, all 42 acres of it. It's easy to forget that you're literally a 5 minute drive to the University of Montana Campus and Historic Downtown Missoula, offering live music, farmer's markets, food vendors, fine dining, night life, shopping and art galeries. Not only is 2110 Wylie Avenue a fabulous fusion of historical architecture located in a gorgeous setting, it also offers just the right mix of the rural and the urban creating a marvelously balanced lifestyle.
