Description
Above Whitefish Lake, on more than 7 acres shaped by rock, towering trees, and extraordinary views, this property has the rare feeling of a private Montana compound rather than simply a lake home. Complemented by 150 feet of shared community lake frontage, this property provides the best of all worlds with endless views and Whitefish Lake access. The main residence sits above the water, where grand windows and a wide-open wrap-around deck make the lake and surrounding mountains part of the architecture itself. Inside, warm chalet-inspired woodwork and a large two-sided stone fireplace give the home a sense of permanence and place. Outside, the property takes advantage of endless one-of-a-kind views of the entirety of Whitefish Lake from each of the property's three separate (but connected) living areas. Along with the main house, there is a new, thoughtfully designed 1-bed, 1-bath guest quarters that offers family and guests privacy without separation. Not to be outdone, there is an elevated 2-bed, 1-bath guest treehouse nestled in and among the stately trees, providing a quiet solitude for its guests and a view entirely of its own. Connecting the three separate living areas and at the heart of the property is a new lake-view pavilion, stone terrace, copper hot tub, and fire ring that creates a natural gathering place for sunset and starlit evenings for all. Music flows seamlessly throughout the property, indoor and out, allowing everyone to share the same soundtrack or enjoy their own. This is a special place where there's room for people to come together, and room for them to disappear. That combination of scale, separation, shared outdoor spaces, and an extraordinary relationship to Whitefish Lake is its real distinction: a Montana retreat designed not simply to be enjoyed now, but to be lived in, returned to, and passed on.
