Set against the sweeping backdrop of the Sapphire Mountains with magnificent views of the Bitterroot Mountains, this thoughtfully designed single level, straw bale and wood frame home offers a rare blend of character, comfort, and Montana living at its finest. The large, bright great room welcomes you as soon as you enter, allowing room for both a living and dining space. The open kitchen adjacent to the great room offers stainless appliances and a delightful eat-in or island area-perfect for casual meals or entertaining. The naturally lit primary bedroom features windows on three sides and leads to your own walk-out porch. The primary bathroom boasts a large jetted tub, a spacious walk-in shower and a large walk-in closet. Straw bale construction is more than an aesthetic choice - it delivers exceptional insulation, thick walls, and quiet interiors that stay warm in winter and cool in summer. A central wood stove adds to the coziness, making this home feel like a true Montana retreat in every season. Built to take in the scenery, the home has a porch on all four sides - catch quiet sunrises to the east and watch magnificent sunrises over the Bitterroots in the evening. The low-maintenance grounds feature native sage, natural grasses, and vibrant spring wildflowers including Bitterroots, requiring little upkeep while remaining beautiful year-round. A generous laundry room with utility sink and ample storage could even be used as an office. Outside, a leveled two-car gravel parking pad is ready for a future garage or carport, and a shed provides additional storage near a picnic area with outdoor grill. This unique space will make a wonderful retreat with incredible views and thoughtful touches throughout the home.
