Set in the heart of Big Sky, 252 Vogel Road is 10.36 acres that offers an incredible combination of privacy, natural beauty, and proximity to Town Center. Located less than five minutes (approximately two miles) away, the property feels connected yet private. An expansive open meadow is balanced by mature landscaping along the southern border, with more than 900 feet of river frontage to the north along the South Fork of the West Fork of the Gallatin River and adjacent to protected open space along the river to the west. Exceptionally peaceful yet walkable to everyday amenities, the parcel is zoned RC-SF-5 within the Gallatin Canyon Big Sky zoning subdistrict of Gallatin County with no covenants. It presents a compelling opportunity to develop a river front compound with custom home, accessory dwelling unit and accessory buildings in one of Big Sky’s most desirable and increasingly scarce locations. Additional development potential may be possible, subject to zoning, permitting, and agency approvals. Short-term rentals are a permitted use. Buyer to conduct their own due diligence regarding development potential and well and septic requirements.
