Set on over 9 beautifully landscaped, fenced acres with approximately 350 feet of private lake frontage, this well-maintained property offers breathtaking mountain views, abundant wildlife, and a lifestyle rich in peace, recreation, and flexibility—just minutes from the charming village of Bigfork. The thoughtfully designed 5-bedroom, 2-bathroom home features a bright, open layout with new LVP flooring (2018), a remodeled kitchen (2019) with stunning marble countertops and updated stainless steel appliances, dining area with tongue and groove ceiling, and a wood stove.

A separate 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom guest house adds even more versatility—perfect for visitors, rental income, or extended stays. Outside, the park-like grounds feature a double car heated garage with an additional insulated shop, a large greenhouse, an irrigated fenced garden with raspberries and grapes, and a powered RV pad. Mature trees create a lush, colorful backdrop year-round, including apple, cherry, pear, green & blue plum, chestnut, elm, lilacs of every variety, and Norway maples planted throughout the property. With plenty of room to roam, this property is also an ideal setup for horses, offering gently rolling pastures, fencing, and space to add a barn or corrals. Whether you’re casting a line for trout and bass in the quiet waters of McCaffery Lake, tending to your garden, saddling up your horse for a peaceful ride, or simply soaking in the mountain views, this exceptional property offers a rare combination of privacy, practicality, and natural beauty.
