About This Home
A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity in the heart of Big Sky, this 491-acre private retreat is unmatched in scale, beauty, and location. This land is a rare blend of history and wilderness; early 1900s logging roads wind throughout, creating year-round access across the property for hiking, horseback riding, mountain biking, ATVs, or snowmobiles. In winter, it transforms into a private Nordic haven with miles of groomed cross-country ski trails just outside your door.
Surrounded on three sides by Gallatin National Forest and conserved properties, the estate offers the kind of permanent privacy and protection that is nearly impossible to replicate. Wildlife is abundant, with elk, moose, deer, bears, mountain lions and bobcats often wandering through. Despite its seclusion, this property is only minutes from Big Sky’s world-class skiing, dining, and amenities.
Perched on a ridgeline, the magnificent Canadian cedar log home was designed to frame Lone Peak from every west-facing room. The architecture balances strength and warmth, with soaring timbers, natural stone, and walls of glass that bring the mountains in. A full-length entertainment deck stretches across the western side of the home, perfectly positioned for Montana’s legendary sunsets and panoramic views. From this vantage point, the sightlines are unrivaled: Lone Peak, the Madison Range, the Spanish Peaks, the Gallatin Range, and even south into Yellowstone National Park.
A detached garage with a fully appointed caretaker’s quarters above provides both practicality and flexibility, whether for staff, guests, or private office space. Together, the structures combine modern livability with timeless craftsmanship, set against one of the most dramatic backdrops in the Rockies.
The location offers the best of all worlds—absolute privacy yet total convenience. Big Sky Resort is just 10 minutes away, as are the Meadow Village and Town Center. Bozeman lies an hour north, and Yellowstone National Park is just over an hour to the south.
This spectacular property is truly one of a kind—an irreplaceable Montana legacy, offering unmatched seclusion, beauty, and convenience in one of the West’s most iconic landscapes.
