Positioned directly on Main Street in the heart of Darby, this rare mixed-use opportunity offers the kind of visibility, flexibility, and small-town charm that is increasingly difficult to find in the Bitterroot Valley. With steady drive-by traffic and walkability to local shops, restaurants, and services, this property is ideally situated for a live/work lifestyle or a strategic investment play. Whether you’re envisioning a boutique storefront, professional office, short-term rental, or a hybrid business/residence, the location does a significant portion of the work for you. The existing structure has been thoughtfully updated and lends itself well to multiple uses. Inside, the layout is efficient and welcoming, with a functional kitchen space, open living/dining area, and updated finishes throughout—including newer flooring and a remodeled bathroom with a tiled walk-in shower. The space can easily transition between private residential use and client-facing business operations depending on your needs. The inviting front porch creates a natural entry point—ideal for customer-facing use or simply enhancing curb appeal—while maintaining the approachable, small-town aesthetic that draws people in. This is the kind of place where foot traffic turns into repeat business. The generous lot provides usable outdoor space rarely found in town, offering potential for expansion, additional structures, outdoor seating, or enhanced commercial functionality. The existing firepit area adds a lifestyle element that can be leveraged for residential enjoyment or guest experience if used as a rental. Operate a business while offsetting costs with residential use, convert fully to income-producing rental, or hold as a long-term asset in a high-demand corridor. For owner-users, it’s an opportunity to eliminate the commute entirely and build something meaningful right where you live.
