Some places become a home. Others become the place your family returns to for generations. Just 25 minutes north of Whitefish, this extraordinary Stillwater River retreat offers a rare opportunity to own a private Montana sanctuary surrounded by thousands of acres of protected US Forest Service and Montana lands. With the river just steps from your front door, you'll enjoy privacy while remaining close to Whitefish Mountain Resort, Glacier National Park, Whitefish Lake, and Glacier Park International Airport. Designed for gathering family and friends, the property offers 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms across three separate living spaces. The beautifully crafted 3-bedroom, 2-bath main residence showcases impressive timber-frame architecture, soaring ceilings, expansive covered decks, and inviting living spaces that embrace the surrounding forest and river. Above the oversized garage, an approximately 800-square-foot apartment, with a full bath, provides ideal accommodations for guests, multi-generational living, a private office, or rental income. A charming 1-bedroom, 1-bath guest cabin, literally feet from the river, offers a peaceful retreat for visitors or a short-term rental. Heated bathroom floors, walk-in tile showers, thoughtfully designed outdoor living areas, and a custom treehouse add comfort, character, and lasting memories. Fly fish from your own river frontage, hike directly into thousands of acres of protected public land, watch abundant wildlife from your deck, or simply relax beneath towering pines with the Stillwater River as your soundtrack. This is more than an exceptional property; it's a place where children catch their first trout, holidays become treasured traditions, and memories are made for generations. Private riverfront estates with multiple guest accommodations, direct access to protected public lands, and close proximity to Whitefish are exceptionally rare. This is Montana living at its finest. A legacy worthy of the Montana landscape. Main House - 1,804 sf - 3 bedrooms, 2 baths. Apartment - 800 sf - 1 bath. Guest Cabin - 485 sf - 1 bedroom, 1 bath
