For the buyer searching for Montana the way Montana used to feel - wide open, quiet, and seemingly untouched. Perched above the Gallatin River on more than 19 acres at the end of the road, this Gallatin River Ranch property captures a landscape that is becoming increasingly difficult to find. The river winds through the valley below, the Tobacco Root Mountains rise across the western horizon, and wildlife moves through the surrounding ranchland. Here, sunsets stretch for miles, storms can be watched rolling across the valley, and the changing seasons transform the river bottom below. The meticulously maintained 4,700+ square foot Craftsman-style home was designed to bring that landscape in. Soaring vaulted ceilings, exposed timbers and walls of windows frame the views throughout an open main level anchored by a generous kitchen and great room. Two gas fireplaces, multiple living spaces and thoughtful finishes create a home that feels equally suited to quiet mornings and a house full of guests. The main level primary suite offers direct access to the hot tub and those expansive western views, while the upper level suite provides flexibility as a fourth bedroom, private guest quarters or executive office. Downstairs, the walkout lower level opens through oversized sliders to the patio and landscaped grounds and includes two additional bedrooms- both en suite and one with a steam shower, plus a spacious family room with fireplace and wet bar. Outside, multiple gathering spaces make the most of the setting, from the tranquil waterfall and pergola to open acreage and skies that seem to go on forever.
