Few properties capture the scale and freedom of Montana as completely as this extraordinary 13.27 acre mountain retreat, where sweeping 360 degree views and exceptional privacy define every arrival. Thoughtfully built in 2016, the 3,480 square foot residence reflects a refined approach to Montana living, where warm natural textures, generous proportions, and expansive sightlines come together in a setting designed to feel both grounded and unforgettable.
Inside, vaulted ceilings and expansive windows invite natural light throughout the main living spaces while framing the surrounding landscape in every season. A dramatic stone fireplace anchors the great room, creating warmth and presence at the heart of the home. The kitchen is designed for effortless gathering, featuring stainless steel appliances, an oversized island, abundant prep space, and seamless connection to the dining and living areas. The main level primary suite offers quiet separation, complete with a walk in closet and private ensuite bath positioned for comfort and privacy.
The walk out lower level adds versatility with additional bedrooms, guest accommodations, and flexible living space well suited for hosting family and friends or extended stays. Outdoors, covered porches and open acreage create an atmosphere that feels expansive and deeply peaceful. Watch wildlife wander through the property, soak in the tranquility of Montana's wide open spaces, and enjoy spectacular sunsets that paint the surrounding mountains in ever changing color. After a day spent exploring the outdoors, unwind beneath the stars in the hot tub while taking in the panoramic views and remarkable dark skies.
Beyond serving as a remarkable private retreat, the property has also established itself as a sought after destination for travelers and special events, operating successfully as both a vacation rental and wedding venue. The combination of breathtaking scenery, privacy, and accessibility creates a memorable setting for gatherings, celebrations, and guest experiences alike.
Just minutes from the blue ribbon trout waters of Rock Creek and approximately fifteen scenic minutes from historic Philipsburg, the property offers immediate access to some of western Montana's most sought after recreation, from fishing and hiking to skiing, dining, breweries, and year round adventure. Whether envisioned as a private mountain residence, luxury retreat, established hospitality business, or long term investment, this is a property that captures both the beauty and experience of Montana at its best.
