This breathtaking luxury Montana property has all the bells and whistles necessary for a perfect nature getaway.
It’s not uncommon for architects and designers to create homes that bring the outdoors in — especially when you’re living in an idyllic place like Montana. But this mountain retreat accomplishes the task like few others do. Set against thousands of acres of State and BLM land, the architecture blends perfectly into the landscape with a design inspired by the state’s mining heritage and includes plentiful reclaimed wood, natural cut stone, and rolled tin. There’s also an abundance of glass in the form of floor-to-ceiling windows in the wide-open living and dining areas — all the better to take in the incredible vistas spanning from Lone Mountain to Ward Peak and extending to the Centennial Mountain Range. The main floor primary bedroom also boasts majestic views and a retreat-like bathroom where you can recharge.
You could spend all day just taking in the scenery here, but the house provides plenty of other possibilities for activity. Whether you love to cook or would rather order in, it will be a pleasure in this chef’s-kiss of a kitchen, which is outfitted with Viking, Subzero, and Asko appliances. There are also large prep areas, a huge walk-in pantry, and a full coffee station.
More surprises await on the lower level. Go for a ride in the shiny Otis elevator, and you’ll find en-suite bedrooms with patios, a walk-in safe, an office and gym where you can get down to business and work on your fitness. You can also watch your shows in the state-of-the-art home theater.
Need more? Even going to the garage is an adventure here. Underground access leads to a five-bay garage that sports heating and cooling, epoxy floors, a central vacuum, and a Hotsy Power Wash System. After checking on your fancy cars, you can chill out in the fully decked-out guest apartment on top that features two en-suite bedrooms, gourmet kitchen, and a living room with a fireplace.
Of course, there is no shortage of reasons to actually go outside and get a breath of fresh air. The large parcel has diverse terrain, a private canyon, and miles of trails ideal for exploration. You should also feel free to horse around, and there’s an Ameristall 3-stall bar plus tack and storage room on 5 acres of fenced pasture where you can literally do that.
