Live where others only dream of vacationing. Set on 4.42 private acres in the heart of Paradise Valley, 5 Aquila Lane places you in one of Montana's most beloved corridors - tucked between the Absaroka and Gallatin ranges along the route to Yellowstone's north entrance, with Emigrant Peak rising as your view, and the legendary Yellowstone River just down the road. This is Yellowstone Country! 2,673 Square foot offers 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms across a thoughtfully designed two-level layout - and a rare combination of privacy, flexibility, and income potential that is genuinely hard to find in Paradise Valley at any price. The main residence spans the upper level with 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and comfortable living spaces designed for full-time Montana living. Downstairs, a completely self-contained 400 square foot, 1-bedroom, 1-bath apartment with its own entrance offers true independence from the main home - ideal for long-term rental income, a vacation rental, a caretaker's quarters, or multigenerational living on your own terms. The lower level also includes a generous storage area, laundry room, and an attached 2-car garage, keeping every season's worth of gear, vehicles, and equipment organized and protected. Outside, 4.42 acres of Paradise Valley acreage gives you the space, privacy, and wide-open Montana sky that buyers come from across the country searching for. World-class fly fishing, hiking into the Absaroka-Beartooth Wilderness, wildlife watching, and straightforward access to Yellowstone National Park are simply part of life here. Chico Hot Springs is minutes away, and the Old Saloon - a cornerstone of Paradise Valley since 1902 - is right up the road. Whether you're looking for a primary residence with mortgage-offsetting rental income, a Montana base camp with guest accommodations, or a turnkey investment in one of the region's most active short-term rental markets, this property delivers. Opportunities like this - acreage, a fully independent ADU, and a Paradise Valley address - are rare.
