About This Home

Big 5 Ranch is in Livingston, Montana, a distinguished western town noted for its hospitality, scenic beauty, and vibrant community committed to preserving the unique character of the region. With a population of approximately 9,000, Livingston serves as the original gateway to Yellowstone National Park. Big 5 Ranch is ideal for a family, corporate or hunting retreat and is minutes from downtown Livingston. The ranch spans 514 acres of timbered hillsides and grasslands, affording significant privacy while remaining within convenient reach of both downtown Livingston and Bozeman. Big 5 Ranch sustains a resident elk herd, whose numbers fluctuate but consistently benefit from the property's high-quality habitat, refuge, and forage, supporting both elk and deer populations. In addition, moose and other large wildlife species typical of the greater Yellowstone ecosystem are routinely observed on site. An extensive trail system offers numerous opportunities to observe and appreciate the diverse wildlife present throughout Big 5 Ranch. Inspired by Montana’s historic homesteads, the ranch residence was designed to look like an established cabin that was expanded. There are intimate spaces within each room, so it does not feel too grand, keeping a cozy feeling throughout. The house blends into its hillside setting and is well-suited for two as it is for 10. Its aged look is paired with contemporary touches like black steel accents, angled columns, and sleek windows that frame landscape views. Reclaimed wood logs, granary timber, Douglas fir beams, Montana moss stone, and a metal roof all evoke a historic feel. No sheetrock was used; instead, reclaimed timber, hand applied plaster, and shiplap ensure comfort and style across. Modern elements like handmade tiles, French oak hardwoods add artistic flair, while rustic finishes reinforce the home's Western appeal. Big 5 feels extremely remote yet is accessible to world class amenities throughout this part of southwestern Montana. This is an exceptional Montana lifestyle opportunity for outdoor enthusiasts with its expansive landscape, excellent location and combination of dramatic natural beauty, robust wildlife populations, and architectural brilliance.
