This one-of-a-kind retreat exemplifies exacting craftsmanship, custom style, and efficient function, all nestled beside the iconic Yaak River in a location well-loved for decades. This home was meticulously built and kept with intricate knowledge of its materials and surroundings. Built to last and surrounded by the Montana wilderness, this estate is ultra-energy efficient, using the land and location for passive energy as well as traditional sources. Timeless materials, cedar, granite, tile, and cast iron bring beauty and function to every room, while the star of the home is the south-facing two-story sunroom, making it possible to garden year-round while heating or cooling the rest of the house. The wall of windows provides a panorama of ancient cedar trees, a myriad of wildlife, and a private view of the river with an expanse of national forest as the backdrop. Use the balcony of the sunroom as a studio, retreat, or office and the cozy downstairs room as a den, lodging, or library. Indulge in the spacious walk-in shower with a soaking tub, roomy hallways, and a cast iron cook stove capable of heating the entire home within super-insulated walls. See the features list to appreciate the level of detail paid to every aspect of this home, from the automatic skylights to the stamped concrete downstairs floor. The shop features drive-through doors, heat, 110/220 service, and a roomy 1270 square feet for all your projects and storage. A 14k LPG generator stands ready for home and shop. Over ten newly thinned acres are sunny, defensible, and open; bring your horses and plans with no CCRs! Keep this as your wilderness treasure; it will never disappoint to sit in solitude on the banks of the peaceful river: a world away and back in time.
