About 407 1st Avenue W
Perched above the town of Eureka, this historic home captures sweeping 180-degree views of the Tobacco Valley set against a striking mountain backdrop. The elevated site features a gentle rise from the street, complemented by front entry steps and retaining walls that create a strong, welcoming presence. Inside, the home offers hardwood floors, 9-foot ceilings, and custom built-ins that reflect its original character. The spacious living room includes a fireplace and large picture windows that bring in natural light and showcase the surrounding views. A central mezzanine connects to a main-floor bedroom and bathroom, and leads into a formal dining area and spacious kitchen. Original cabinetry, functional storage, and pantry shelving preserve the home’s charm while supporting everyday use. A rear sunroom addition off the kitchen provides flexible living space with large windows, a corner fireplace, and direct access to side gardens. A butler’s pantry leads to a secondary staircase accessing the upper-level bedrooms, complete with dormer built-ins and additional storage. The partially finished basement includes a private entrance, large windows, a laundry area, wood stove, bedroom or family room, and a ¾ bath—offering potential for a variety of uses. The fully fenced backyard features mature trees, a patio, and space for gardening or small animals, along with raised beds, a dog run, storage sheds, and a workshop with alley access and room for recreational vehicles or equipment. Located just minutes from downtown Eureka, the property provides convenient access to shopping, dining, and schools, as well as year-round recreation with nearby lakes, trails, and Glacier National Park.
