BLACKWOOD GROVES

Learn More About
Blackwood Groves Subdivision

Blackwood Groves is a large master-planned community on Bozeman’s south side, developed by Bridger Communities as a modern take on a small-town neighborhood. It’s genuinely mixed — with for-sale single-family homes (The Estates, The Porches, The Bungalows), rental cottages and arbor houses, and a Village Square commercial area all within the same community. There are 12 parks and open spaces, a fitness loop, an ice skating rink, a sledding hill, and a cross-country ski loop. The Gallagator Trail runs directly to downtown Bozeman — a 10-minute bike ride. It’s a distinctive concept with a strong lifestyle identity, and it’s one of the larger active developments on the south side.

Blackwood Groves has 12 parks and open spaces, a fitness loop, dog parks, an ice skating rink, a sledding hill, and a cross-country ski loop — one of the most complete amenity packages of any Bozeman subdivision. The Village Square commercial area will bring bars, restaurants, and retail within the development itself. The Gallagator Trail connects directly to downtown Bozeman and MSU. Hyalite Canyon is a short drive for backcountry recreation.

Blackwood Groves tends to attract buyers who want a vibrant, amenity-rich community with a strong lifestyle identity — and who are comfortable with a mixed ownership/rental neighborhood by design. The Gallagator Trail connection and the south Bozeman location draw buyers who prioritize active transportation, MSU proximity, and mountain access. The range of for-sale home types (Bungalows to Estates) means buyers across a range of budgets can find an option within the community.

- Blackwood Groves is intentionally mixed — for-sale homes and rental homes coexist within the same community as a permanent design feature. The Cottages and Arbor Houses are long-term rentals, not transitional. If you want an exclusively owner-occupied neighborhood, this may not be the right fit. If a vibrant, diverse community appeals to you, it's a feature.

- The Village Square commercial area is planned within the development — restaurants, bars, and retail will be a short walk from many homes. This is a draw for buyers who want walkable amenities but worth factoring in if proximity to commercial activity isn't your preference.

- Homes have been taking longer to sell than some comparable south Bozeman developments — median DOM around 104–159 days on sold listings. This suggests buyers are deliberate about the fit here.

- The Gallagator Trail access is one of the most practical daily-life features in any Bozeman subdivision. If non-motorized transportation to downtown or MSU is part of your lifestyle, this is one of very few neighborhoods where it's genuinely built in.

- Gran Cielo Allison are nearby developments — this entire section of south Bozeman off S. 19th is in active development.
