Description
In a private clearing in Beehive Basin, bordered by a protected, non-buildable meadow, a spring-fed creek winds and the Spanish Peaks rise close enough to hold the last light of day. Here, a custom residence by the award winning team at Centre Sky Architecture and Lohss Construction is sited to frame the summits, its great room's glass gable opening toward the high country. The architecture speaks the language of the landscape. Full-log columns and heavy timber trusses carry a standing-seam metal roof, natural wood and board-and-batten siding meet custom stone masonry, and walls of glass dissolve the line between the great room and the meadow beyond. The main level gathers around a wood-burning fireplace, with a kitchen finished in Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances and a walk-in pantry, a dining area, and a living room opening to stunning outdoor spaces. Beyond is an expanded two-car garage, a mudroom built for the outdoors with storage, laundry, and direct exterior access, and a sanctuary of sauna and shower with a private path to a bluestone patio beside Beehive Creek, a quiet retreat in the sound of moving water. A private mid-level is given entirely to the primary suite, with ensuite bath and its own covered deck. The upper level holds two more guest bedrooms, each with ensuite baths, one with a private loft for a reading nook or children's retreat. A bunk room paired with a family room and private bath completes the level, ready for the next generation of skiers and hikers. In warmer months, the outdoor spaces become the heart of the home. The covered deck with its outdoor fireplace wraps the great room for shaded morning coffee and long alfresco dinners, while the raised stone patio steps down to a fire feature set among boulders, drawing everyone together as the last light settles over the meadow. The location is the rare kind that offers everything at once: complete privacy and family-centered calm, yet close to all that makes Big Sky memorable. The Beehive Basin Trail traverses the property, offering direct access to one of the most celebrated hikes in the Northern Rockies. Big Sky Resort delivers some of the finest skiing in North America, and the coveted One&Only Moonlight Basin and Montage Big Sky sit a short drive away, each with exceptional spa and alpine fine dining. The Madison and Gallatin rivers welcome you to the storied fly fishing of Montana, with Yellowstone National Park and the historic Main Street of Bozeman just an hour away.
