174 Valley Grove Drive in Bozeman, MT: A Corner Lot Where Space, Zoning, and Time Work in Your Favor

Some homes feel like a moment. Others feel like a place you could settle into for decades.

174 Valley Grove Drive in Bozeman, Montana is firmly the latter.

Set on a nearly half-acre corner lot in the established Valley Grove neighborhood, this home offers something that is becoming increasingly rare in Bozeman: breathing room, privacy, and zoning that protects it.
