Request Information
Where European craftsmanship meets Montana mountains, this Bavarian German-built chalet offers a rare combination of precision, durability, and quiet beauty. Set on 5+ private, fully fenced and gated acres, the property is positioned to capture stunning views of the Swan Mountain Range and is thoughtfully designed to offer moments of peace, quiet, and true tranquility. The chalet is constructed with poured concrete foundations and a durable tile roof, an intentional approach to longevity and structural integrity. Inside, the layout is open and efficient, defined by exposed timber beams, vaulted ceilings, and a traditional European masonry fireplace that serves as the central focal point of the living space. The upper level is dedicated to the primary suite, offering a private balcony and a well-appointed bath complete with a cedar-lined sauna. The design emphasizes both function and comfort, creating a quiet, private retreat. The lower level features a private studio space with its own kitchenette and a wood-burning cookstove, providing flexible use for guests, extended living, or workspace. The grounds are thoughtfully developed for both utility and sustainability. A stone-lined pond is fed by a custom gutter system. The greenhouse, with raised beds and established plantings, is well-suited for year-round cultivation. Outbuildings are substantial and purpose-driven, including a detached garage and shop with lean-to storage, a large workshop shed, and a separate hobby structure. A root cellar is located within the home, adding practical, year-round storage. Modern systems include fiber internet to the home and a wired generator setup to ensure reliable, efficient living in all seasons. Some furnishings are being offered with the purchase, creating an opportunity for a more seamless transition into this well-appointed mountain retreat. This is a property defined by craftsmanship, order, and lasting quality, designed to function as well as it endures.
