For those who appreciate majestic, wide-open spaces and winter sports, especially skiing and snowboarding, this custom ‘chalet’ on 3 pristine acres in Big Sky, Montana offers it all. A rustic version of the refined luxury of homes in Los Altos and Atherton, this legacy home embodies it’s rugged surroundings with the use of Durfeld logs to frame the interior, impressive stone masonry fireplaces, open beam timber ceilings and provides easy access to 5,800 acres on which to ski and snowboard.

The 6,122 square foot home in the much-desired neighborhood of High Camp includes 6 bedrooms (some with built-in wooden bunk beds to house multiple fellow skiers) and 7 bathrooms as well as two living rooms, a game room and a yes, a room designed specifically for skiing and snowboarding. Set on the lower level with it’s own entrance, this space is specifically designed for donning one’s ski gear as well as storing equipment. It has equipment lockers, a boot warmer, an adjacent laundry facility and a ski slope just steps away in the front yard.

Crystal clear alpine lakes and miles of trails are perfect for swimming, boating, hiking and biking in warm months while a Nicklaus-signature course appeals to golfers of all levels.

Stunning views of the Spanish Peaks are framed by picture windows in every room while multiple decks offer unobstructed vistas of the mountains, pine trees and Moonlight Basin, all which glow in shades of orange, red, purple and pink as the sun dips below the foothills.

Melding flawlessly with the home’s rural touches are sophisticated materials such as marble and granite countertops, custom solid wood cabinetry, coffered ceilings and gleaming hardwood floors.

Priced at $4,995,000 (or fully furnished for $5,295,000), this Big Sky home is the ultimate retreat for Atherton and Los Altos residents looking to find peace and adventure set among pristine forest and peaks.
