About This Home

Here is is - your quintessential Montana log home tucked into the trees, just minutes from downtown Whitefish. Zoned WRR-1 for short-term rental potential, this 4-bedroom, 3-bath retreat offers the perfect blend of privacy and proximity. Take in sweeping views of the Whitefish Mountain Range from the expansive wrap-around deck, or relax in the secluded backyard featuring a hot tub, fire pit, and patio. Inside, vaulted ceilings and oversized windows fill the main level with natural light and frame the mountain views. The lofted primary suite is a true sanctuary, complete with a private balcony and sitting area. The recently converted lower level adds flexibility with a spacious family room, two bedrooms and a half bath. Enjoy four-season recreation with downtown Whitefish just 4 minutes away, Whitefish Mountain Resort 10 minutes up the road, and crystal-clear Whitefish Lake within 5 minutes. Rental projections available upon request.
