Welcome to a property that captures the very essence of Montana living. Nestled along the iconic West Fork of the Bitterroot River, this custom log masterpiece offers approximately 665 feet of pristine river frontage--providing world-class fly-fishing literally steps from your back deck. With sweeping, unobstructed views up and down the river corridor, this home is more than a residence--it is a destination. Every detail of this 2007-built home speaks to timeless quality and artistry. Native stone fireplaces anchor the living spaces, while live-edge granite countertops, handcrafted alder cabinetry, and custom natural wood flooring blend elegance with warmth. The grand great room features soaring ceilings, and a sunken bar with walls of windows brings the outdoors inside. A chef-inspired kitchen, custom wine cellar, and expansive dining area create the perfect setting for entertaining or quiet evenings at home. The primary suite is a private retreat, with a fireplace, spa-style bath, soaking tub, steam shower, and French doors that open to a side deck and hot tub. Additional features include a light-filled gym, spacious guest accommodations, and multiple inviting spaces for relaxation.
