Mornings begin on the private, east-facing back patio, watching the sunrise filter through the mature evergreens that shield this 0.63-acre property. This multi-level Kootenai Woods residence is designed for those seeking a true connection to the Montana landscape and a vibrant, nature-forward lifestyle. The neighborhood offers a welcoming environment for residents at any stage of life, fostering a great sense of community spirit where friendly, helpful neighbors make you feel right at home. A gentle, five-minute walk down the community’s year-round trails brings you directly to private, shared shoreline access on Swan Lake—complete with a beach area for swimming and an entry point for boating, kayaking, or fishing. Beyond the water, the neighborhood features 15 acres of wooded common space to explore, offering a peaceful lifestyle where wildlife wanders past your windows. Inside, the great room anchors the home with high vaulted ceilings and an abundance of south-facing windows that frame sunny vistas of Crane Mountain. The main living space flows effortlessly toward the dining area and an open kitchen equipped with solid granite countertops, crisp white cabinetry, and a central breakfast bar. A wood-burning stove sits at the heart of the living room, filling the entire level with cozy warmth on crisp evenings. The home’s layout provides excellent privacy across its different levels. Upstairs, the primary bedroom serves as a dedicated retreat with its own private deck overlooking the level backyard, a dual-vanity ensuite bathroom, a deep soaking tub, and a large walk-in closet. Just above, a versatile loft space is flanked by two bright bedrooms, sharing a bathroom to create a flexible zone for a home office, sitting room, or media area. The fully finished walk-out lower level features its own separate entrance and private patio, alongside a fourth bedroom, full bath, and a multi-purpose room complete with a sink and mini-fridge—an ideal arrangement for long-term guests or multi-generational living. Practical amenities like central air conditioning, an energy-efficient heat pump, a mudroom, and a large fenced backyard with raised garden beds ensure comfort through every season, all while keeping Bigfork’s local shops and restaurants just ten minutes away.
