Perfectly positioned on 4+ pristine acres along the Swan River, this exceptional 2,950 sq ft custom home offers a rare blend of privacy, craftsmanship, and breathtaking scenery. Designed and built by renowned Bigfork architect George Gibson and builder Jim Fenn, the home showcases exquisite wood and metal detailing throughout, with thoughtful design evident in every space. Enjoy sweeping, unobstructed views in every direction--taking in the Swan Range on three sides, Swan Peaks to the southeast, and the serene Swan River to the west and southwest--from nearly every porch, patio, and window. The main residence spans approximately 2,350 sq ft, complemented by a beautifully appointed 650 sq ft guest apartment with its own private entrance--ideal for visitors, friends, and family. With 580 feet of Swan River frontage, a tree-lined shoreline offers both privacy and natural beauty, while a dock and adjacent deck provide easy access for recreation. The river's depth supports a wide range of activities, including kayaking, paddleboarding, fishing, and even pontoon boating. Across the yard, is a 1,400 sq ft heated shop/garage building featuring expansive windows, epoxy floors, and a bathroom. Currently used for an antique car garage and an art studio, this versatile space offers endless possibilities. Outdoor living is equally impressive, with a thoughtfully designed back patio perfect for Montana summers. A built-in BBQ and gas firepit are directly plumbed to a 500-gallon propane tank, and a wood-fired cedar sauna adds a luxurious touch--perfect before or after a refreshing river swim. Recreation, dining and shopping are a short distance away, with just a 10 minute drive to downtown Bigfork, 1 hour to Whitefish, and 50 minutes to Glacier National Park. Whether you're seeking peaceful solitude, a quaint shopping experience or enjoying the charm of wonderful neighbors, this extraordinary Swan River retreat offers the best of Montana beauty.
