A Hidden Gem in the Pines
If you’ve been following Hidden Holms for a while, you know I’ve got a soft spot for cabins with charm—and yes, I’ve used words like cozy, quaint, and cute a lot. But trust me when I say: this one’s a winner.
This rustic A-frame in Superior, Montana, doesn’t just have charm—it has character. Set on 1.4 acres across two lots, the home is surrounded by tall pines and is just steps from the Clark Fork River. It feels lived-in in the best way: a little nostalgic, a little woodsy, and so full of life.
Classic A-Frame Meets Western Warmth
Built in 1974, this home stays true to the A-frame’s iconic design, with steeply pitched roofs that give it that unmistakable shape. I’ve always loved the feeling A-frames give—there’s something instantly cozy about them, but also a bit adventurous, like you’ve stepped into a place built for memories. The mix of that classic A-frame design paired with Montana’s rugged textures and lifestyle is something special.
The home’s exterior is simple, nestled into nature without being too far from the comforts of modern living. And that detached oversized garage and workshop? It’s perfect for anyone who loves a bit of space to create or tinker with projects.
Step Inside: Wood, Warmth, and Wagon Wheels
The living room is a showstopper. Vaulted ceilings stretch high above, and rustic timber beams break up the vertical space in a way that feels intentional and grounded. A large wagon wheel chandelier adds a playful and rustic centerpiece, while a wood-burning stove keeps the space warm and welcoming.
The open living and dining space is cozy without feeling cramped. It’s the kind of room that encourages board games, slow dinners, and quiet evenings by the fire.
A Light-Filled Retreat Upstairs
Head upstairs to find the primary suite: roomy, updated, and full of natural light. The walk-in closet is generous, and the en-suite bathroom has been tastefully remodeled with clean, simple finishes that respect the home’s roots while offering modern comfort.
Sliding glass doors open to a private upper deck—an unexpected bonus that gives you tree-top views and even a peek of the river. I also love how the bonus room next door can be anything you need—a cozy reading nook, a home office, or a place to unleash your creativity.
Outdoor Living Done Right
What really makes this property shine, though, is the outdoor living space. If you know me, you know how much I appreciate a yard that’s just as inviting as the inside of the home. From the raised garden beds to the sweet little patio strung with party lights, this space feels so well-loved and carefully crafted.
There’s even a dry shed that’s been transformed into a guest sleeping space. It’s quirky, charming, and exactly the kind of space you’d want to share with friends and family. And let’s not forget the chicken coop—it’s probably nicer than most people’s apartments.
This yard is set up for everything from garden parties to lazy afternoons. Plus, the property is fenced and cross-fenced, with an animal shelter already in place—making it ideal for anyone who loves animals or is looking to explore hobby farming.
A Location With Access to Everything
Superior has that perfect small-town charm, where you can slow down and take in the surroundings—but it’s also right in the heart of adventure. Just outside your door, you’ve got access to fishing, hiking, floating, and even huckleberry picking. And when you’re ready for more, you’re less than an hour away from:
- Lookout Pass Skiing
- Hiawatha Bike Trail
- Quinn’s Hot Springs
- Dozens of mountain lakes
- Missoula’s city shopping, dining, and airport access
Whether you’re after outdoor adventure or quiet days at home, this location has it all.
Why We Love It
There’s something undeniably special about this home. It perfectly blends old-world charm with modern comfort, and it strikes that rare balance between rustic and refined. The timber beams, the steep roofline, the wood stove—it all comes together to create a home that feels both grounded and inspiring.
If you’re dreaming of a getaway, a full-time move, or just need a little creative inspiration for your own future build, this A-frame has so much to offer. It’s the kind of place that makes you feel like you belong, not just because of how it looks, but because of how it makes you feel.
Could you see yourself here?
This spot in Superior isn’t just a home—it’s a lifestyle. If you’ve been craving charm with a little extra room to breathe and easy access to the mountains, this A-frame might just be your perfect fit.
