Welcome to your Montana Shangri-La--an extraordinary luxury property that combines take-your-breath-away natural beauty with a distinctive kick-off-your-shoes kind warmth that invites you to walk right in and stay a while. The magazine-worthy main home was fully remodeled and finished at the highest level in 2019, while the stylish and spacious guest quarters (atop a 4-bay garage), light-filled artist/fitness studio, greenhouse and custom treehouse were newly constructed soon after. Together, they blend harmoniously into a lush and verdant landscape as if they had been there for a century or more. With the sound of Middle Creek flowing through the property year-round and the chorus of birdsong echoing through the trees, it's easy to forget that this tranquil sanctuary is merely minutes away from the highly acclaimed Monforton School, Black Bull Country Club, and the fast-growing and amenity-rich city of Bozeman. But beyond the private and secluded splendor of this property, the dwellings themselves are a thing to behold. Indeed, no expense was spared in their completion: from the reclaimed oak beams and plaster walls to the hand-selected wood planks on the kitchen cabinet doors and the custom designed and hand-forged hardware that opens them, every thoughtful detail suggests a level of quality that is unmatched in this market. And although the visual appeal of the property is undeniable, the "invisible" attributes are just as impressive and include a solar array that provides 80% of the home's electrical needs (plus a backup generator), a state-of-the-art heat recovery ventilation system, radiant in-floor heat, Energy Star program certification, and a CNTRL4 Smart Home system that enables automation of lighting, sound, blinds, irrigation, entertainment, monitoring and HVAC. This rare offering is the kind of property that must be seen to be fully understood. It must be felt. For when it comes to luxury retreats with live water and proximity to the conveniences of Bozeman, this 3.69-acre urban oasis nestled on the banks of Middle Creek truly checks every box for the discerning homebuyer.
