320 acres on Highway 212

320 acres two miles south of Rockvale, which is the intersection of Highway 212 and 310 to Wyoming. Highway 212 north of Rockvale to Laurel will be widened shortly, to make room for the increasing traffic. Rockvale consists mostly of a casino, but subdivisions are springing up around it. Laurel is only 12 miles to the north and a new Walmart superstore is in the process of being built there. Billings is another 14 miles to the east from Laurel and Bozeman is less than 90 miles from there to the west.

Laurel has a population of about 6,500 people of mostly German, Norwegian and English descent. Billings is running out of room and water, so it is spreading west and south on Highway 212. The freight train follows Highway 212 to Rockvale and then swings over along Highway 310 to Wyoming. This property is two miles SW of Rockvale on Highway 212 and you cannot hear the train from there. Great location for a development!

There are springs, an irrigation ditch and one pond by the highway. This summer a new fish pond will be built toward the back of the property, sheltered by trees.

120 acres along the highway are irrigated, and yield about 5-6 tons of hay per year.

The most south-westerly part of the irrigated acreage - 20 acres can be sold separately for $ 210,000 with 10" of irrigation water.

The other 175 acres are dryland to the north of the irrigation ditch. They include rolling hills of grass, a sheltered valley and a reservoir, which only fills up during very wet years. It can also be sold separately for $ 450,000 with an easement through the irrigated ground.

All 317 acres are offered - including ALL mineral rights! - at
$ 1,450,000
