94 Sky Band Trail Livingston, MT 59047

Sky Band Ranch, at the southern base of the Bangtail Mountains captures the magic of Southwestern Montana. Its location between the treasured towns of Bozeman and Livingston makes it even more desirable. The ranch spans +/- 262 serene acres offering the freedom to mountain bike, hike, horseback ride, hunt, snowshoe or cross-country ski right out the back door. It supports horses or other livestock. Area Creek (also known as O’Rea Creek) runs on the ranch for approximately 1/3 mile. The gorgeous western-style residence and pond are tucked upon a hilltop bordered by timbered hillsides, lush meadows and creek bottom providing refuge to elk, deer, moose, bear, grouse, Hungarian partridge, and other impressive wildlife. The residence built in 2008 exemplifies exceptional craftsmanship and meticulous attention to detail, effortlessly combining rustic style with attractive finishes perfectly integrated into the striking Montana landscape. Massive amounts of stone were brought in for the outdoor patio area, some interior and exterior walls, and five substantial fireplaces. Hewn Douglas fir was used for the interior and exterior walls. Custom made cabinetry, solid wood doors, trim and gorgeous wide plank fir flooring which has been recently refinished to perfection are found throughout the main floor. Pella windows and French doors frame the beautiful landscape of mostly ranch land with the Absaroka Mountains as its backdrop. Massive wood beams/trusses and impressive two-sided stone fireplace anchor the sun filled open floor plan of the living/kitchen/dining area creating a wonderful lodge atmosphere for gatherings or hunkering down with an enjoyable book. Additionally, there is a dedicated office/library, a spacious laundry room, and an oversized attached two-car garage. Downstairs is a 4,758 sf partially finished walk out basement offering endless possibilities. The property is behind a locked gate. This may be an excellent candidate for a conservation easement. Sky Band Ranch offers an extraordinary Montana lifestyle for outdoor enthusiasts seeking stunning views, open space and nature near world-class amenities.
