Property Description

This is the kind of ski house people picture when they dream of Big Sky. An authentic log home built by Blue Ribbon Builders—one of the Big Sky's most respected builders—set directly on the side of Lone Peak, with true ski-in access right to the back door. No shuttles, no workarounds. Just step outside and ski. The home offers 5 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, and 5,721 square feet and is being sold turnkey. Warm, comfortable, and full of character, it’s designed to be enjoyed rather than fussed over. It has also proven itself as a high-performing short-term rental, with strong income and a loyal base of repeat guests. The main level is centered around an open kitchen, dining, and living area with vaulted ceilings and classic log craftsmanship—perfect for gathering after a day on the mountain. The primary suite is conveniently located on this floor, along with a cozy den, an indoor hot tub, and an attached two-car garage. Upstairs, you’ll find two spacious guest suites, each with its own en suite bath and private deck, plus a large bunk room at the end of the hall that’s ideal for hosting friends and family. The walkout lower level feels like a second living space, offering another open entertaining area with a full kitchen, a bedroom with en suite bath, a home gym, a theater room, and a large owner’s lock-off closet for ski and bike gear. The home sits on one of the best lots in one of Big Sky’s most desirable neighborhoods and does not require (or come with) Moonlight membership. Thoughtfully furnished with European antiques and Western artifacts, it’s ready to enjoy from day one. A private garage at the Bozeman Airport may also be included, depending on final terms. If you’re looking for an authentic Montana ski home—true log construction, direct ski-in access, proven rental performance, and an unbeatable location—this one stands in a class of its own.
