A unique Montana legacy estate on 50+ private acres in the heart of Northwest Montana. This extraordinary compound showcases pride of ownership throughout, totaling 10BD/10BA and 16,000+ SF across three distinct structures, delivering unmatched versatility for multigenerational living, farming, private retreats, weddings, or events. The property offers private helicopter fly-in capability with a dedicated landing area and ample space for a future hangar-workshop, creating potential for an aviation-focused estate. Panoramic views of the Swan Mountain Range, well-stocked ponds, mature timbers with vibrant seasonal color changes unfold with park-like clearings for an unforgettable setting - just minutes to Bigfork, Flathead Lake, Jewel Basin, Whitefish Mountain Resort, and Glacier National Park. Gated coded entry and fully fenced with a 1,536 SF 4-bay detached garage/shop, an underground 100-yd shooting range, and extensive recreational amenities, this is a rare opportunity to own a true Montana legacy at an extraordinary scale. The 10,316 SF 4BD/6BA custom main residence is a masterwork of craftsman design, featuring coffered ceilings, knotty alder woodwork, and curated details that elevate every space. The Chef's kitchen is appointed with high-end appliances and a butler's pantry, while the great room is anchored by a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, with panoramic picture windows framing breathtaking Swan Mountain Range views that carry out onto the wraparound deck. The main level primary wing offers a private sitting room, large ensuite primary bath with radiant floors, and his-and-her walk-in closets. A private library, elevator servicing all levels, home theater, large recreation room, sunroom, and third-level artist studio round out an exceptional offering designed for both grand entertaining and everyday comfort. Bring the entertaining outdoors to a custom stone patio with a sports court for basketball, pickleball, or your game of choice. The charming 2BD/2BA log cabin offers 1,778 SF of warm, intimate living space with its own character and breathtaking views of the mountains. Featuring a wood-burning stove, a lofted bedroom, and a dining nook perfectly positioned to soak in the surrounding landscape, the cabin serves beautifully as a guest retreat, caretaker's residence, or private hideaway within the larger estate. The 4BD/2BA barndominium spans 4,262 SF and was purpose-built for large gatherings. An oversized main-level event and lounge area with T&G pine walls opens seamlessly to the outdoors through large doors on each side, creating an effortless indoor-outdoor flow for weddings, retreats, family reunions, or conferences. A turnkey kitchen, four guest bedrooms, and a dedicated garage and workshop make this structure fully self-sufficient. Additional features include multiple outbuildings, a beach volleyball court, horseshoes, basketball, Ninja rope area, and treehouse ready to be assembled. Once a Christmas tree farm, the property offers a unique blend of established landscape, privacy, and long-term investment opportunity. With no covenants and SAG-10 zoning, this is a rare opportunity to own a true legacy estate, offering unmatched versatility, expansive recreational opportunities, and breathtaking natural beauty.
