2355 Mount Ellis Ln, Bozeman, MT 59715

Nestled at the base of Mount Ellis, this remarkable custom timber and log mountain home offers a seamless connection to nature with backdoor access to vast expanses of State and Forest service land. For those with a love for the outdoors, the allure of exploration on the adjacent public lands is matched only by the charm of staying close to home on the property's seventeen plus acres. A pasture, seasonal spring, and tranquil pond, provide a perfect balance of seclusion, leisure, and the potential for livestock. As you step through the threshold, the heart of the home unfolds. Vaulted ceilings and strategically placed peaked windows frame the commanding views of the beloved Bridger Mountains. At the center of the living room, the stacked stone fireplace anchors a large, open floor plan that encourages entertaining and seamlessly connects the living spaces. The generously sized kitchen boasts a prep island with a sink, stainless steel appliances including a Thermador range with a central griddle, and a Sub-Zero refrigerator. The walk-in pantry stows away small appliances and provisions, maintaining the clean lines of the kitchen. Off the dining room, a tiered deck makes grilling and al fresco dining a joy. When it’s time to retreat, the primary suite is just a few steps away in a separate wing of the home. The Bridger Mountain facing bedroom has been thoughtfully designed to take advantage of all seasons. A cozy corner fireplace takes the chill off in winter, and in the summer, enjoy lingering on the the southwest facing private balcony to take in the sunsets. Upstairs, an open loft is adaptable to your needs—whether that's an inspiring office, a tranquil library, or a fly tying sanctuary. A second bonus room, with its private entry from the garage, extends a warm welcome to guests, allowing them to come and go with ease. Downstairs, the hallmarks of western design continue with the tumbled river rock stone fireplace, warm wood cabinetry and spectacular views from every window.  The family room, complete with a wet bar, serves as an inviting area for movie nights and spirited football games. French doors leading to the patio swing open, blurring the line between interior and exterior. Two downstairs bedrooms, a full bath, storage room with built in cabinetry and an extra room perfect for bunk beds or hobbies complete the space. All of this plus a barn, round pen, RV station & gated entry are less than a 15 minute drive from the amenities of Bozeman.
