Historic Opal Property — Major Renovations Complete on Big Fork Creek! Steeped in local history and undergoing an extensive transformation, this one-of-a-kind property was once home to the Opal Post Office and Opal Community Store — and is now well on its way to becoming a beautifully renovated home on the banks of Big Fork Creek. This 3-bedroom 2-bath home retains its original character with charming wood ceilings, walls, and floor accents, while the heavy lifting of renovation has already been tackled for you: All subfloor and substructures repaired/replaced. All sheetrock repaired, textured, and painted. Entire plumbing system replaced with PEX. Two new hot water heaters. All new A/C units. All new roof and sheeting. All new soffits/eaves. Fresh interior and exterior paint. Two new tile showers. All flooring replaced. With all the major structural, mechanical, and system upgrades already done, this property is primed for a buyer to add the finishing touches and make it truly their own. Located just minutes from ATV trails and only 25 minutes from town, this is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Opal history with most of the hard work already behind it.
