Welcome to one of Helena’s early landmarks, the Mae Butler house. Never before on the market, this carpenter gothic stone cottage was constructed by William Butler from fieldstone and cut granite on site in the 1870s. William’s eldest daughter, Mae, was born in the home in 1880 and was a longtime Helena educator known for her generous nature and infectious laughter. This unique gem is perched above downtown with views of the South Hills, cathedral, and a grand view of the Guardian of the Gulch. Located at the end of the street, the location cannot be surpassed. Reeder’s Alley, the downtown walking mall, restaurants, as well as museums and theatres are all within easy walking distance. There are nearly 80 miles of world-class hiking and biking trails out the door of this home, as Helena has been designated as a silver metal ride location by the International Mountain Bike Association. The home has updated electrical, windows, paint, plumbing, a 10 X 20 barn-style shed, sprinkler system, and is fully fenced. The living room has inviting high ceilings and picture rail and the kitchen holds Mae’s chandelier and original cast iron sink with drain board. The bathroom boasts the home’s original clawfoot tub. Remarkably private while incredibly convenient, thick stone walls further enhance the peace and tranquility of this charming, one-of-a-kind home which is a tribute to a pioneer family and is truly an exceptional retreat.
