About This Home
Your timeless Montana mountain retreat awaits in this stunning 4,280 sq ft custom home set on 13 pristine acres at approximately 6,000 feet in elevation. Positioned along the edge of a peaceful valley, this property offers a rare and immersive wildlife experience—where elk, deer, and native birds are frequent visitors, and each day feels like a private escape into nature. Designed across three levels with 23 foot soaring ceilings, including a dramatic loft, the home is anchored by a striking south-facing wall of glass that captures natural light and frames sweeping sunset views beyond downtown Bozeman—visible right from your deck. The main level features an expansive kitchen, dining area, and a luxurious primary suite complete with a private deck and hot tub overlooking the mountain landscape. Exceptional craftsmanship is showcased throughout, beginning with 6-inch hand-scraped birch flooring in the kitchen, knotty alder doors, and matching alder window, door, and baseboard trim. The kitchen features rustic hickory cabinetry, which continues throughout all bathrooms, as well as the mudroom, wine closet, and workshop. Locally harvested Douglas fir—sourced within two miles—has been crafted into the kitchen countertops and fireplace mantel, while exposed beams and stacked support posts add architectural character from the basement through the great room to the loft. Warm finishes continue with pine tongue-and-groove ceilings in the great room and downstairs bedrooms, a custom cherry bookcase in the loft, travertine tile in the primary bath, slate in the entryway, and barnwood accents in the bunk room. The lower level offers a spacious living and game room with walk-out access to a firepit and tranquil water feature. Outdoor living is equally impressive, with cedar siding, sandstone steps and walkways, and a stone fireplace seating area. High-quality Jeld-Wen windows and patio doors bring in light, while a dual heating system with Lennox forced air and radiant heat ensures comfort. A detached, heated 1,100 sq ft shop—currently used as a professional woodworking space—offers flexibility for hobbies, storage, or gear, with room for vehicles and toys. Conveniently located just 28 minutes from Main Street Bozeman, 38 minutes to Bridger Bowl, and 30 minutes to Livingston, with access to ATV trails in the Bangtail Mountains, this property offers the perfect balance of seclusion, accessibility, and elevated mountain living.
