Mullan Road Homes for Sale

Much of the housing here is recent. The City of Missoula’s Captain John Mullan neighborhood runs from Reserve Street to the Wye and from the Clark Fork River to Broadway (Highway 10 West). The city’s building-age chart shows roughly 1,000 buildings from 2001 to 2010 and about 700 more from 2011 to 2021, far ahead of every earlier decade. The profile also records the neighborhood’s population growing 58 percent between 2010 and 2022, against 10 percent city-wide.

The neighborhood has 4,095 housing units, about 11 percent of the city’s total. Single-family houses are 40 percent. Multi-dwelling buildings are 30 percent, group quarters 12 percent, duplexes 8 percent, mobile homes 5 percent and condos 5 percent.

Where the services are

The neighborhood is large, and the numbers show it. The city’s profile has 1,041 acres of open space, with 27 percent of the area public. It lists Pleasant View Park, 44 Ranch Park, the Roots off Reserve community garden, and the Sxwtpqen open space. Of the neighborhood’s area, 59 percent is within a quarter mile of open space, 12 percent within a quarter mile of a transit stop, 8 percent within a quarter mile of a commuter trail, and 3 percent within a quarter mile of a grocery store. Sidewalk totals 42 miles, with 4.2 miles missing. Tree canopy covers about 5.6 percent, against 14 to 17 percent in Rose Park, Lewis and Clark, and Farviews/Pattee Canyon.

With so little of the area near a grocery store or transit stop, check the drive to the places you use most.

City or county

Missoula County has no central water and wastewater system, and its list of special districts includes the El Mar RSID, which serves the El Mar area off Mullan Road. A home inside a district pays for the system through special assessments on its tax bill. On any address, confirm whether it is inside city limits, whether water and sewer come from the city or a district, and what the assessments are.

Price context

The city’s neighborhood profile gives a 2022 median home sale price of $460,000 for the neighborhood, against $519,000 city-wide. That is a 2022 figure. For the current picture, compare active listings and recent sales of the same housing type.
