Set on 20 private acres within the gated enclave of Cottonwood Creek Ranch, this exceptional mountain retreat is a collaboration between acclaimed architect Jonathan Foote and OSM, one of the West's premier builders of handcrafted homes. Surrounded by towering pines, aspens, wildflower meadows, and views of Mount Blackmore, the 3,784± square-foot residence offers five bedrooms, four bathrooms, and craftsmanship increasingly difficult to replicate. The home feels inseparable from its setting. Steeply pitched rooflines, a dramatic stone chimney, and natural wood siding allow it to settle naturally into the forested hillside. Inside, the entry reveals hand-hewn log walls, traditional wide chinking, peeled-log railings, reclaimed wood details, and wrought-iron accents. Wide-plank hardwood floors, exposed timber framing, and substantial wood surrounds give the interior a warm, distinctly hand-built character. In the vaulted great room, an expansive wall of glass frames the landscape, while a monumental stone fireplace creates a dramatic focal point. The updated kitchen offers a refined contrast to the home's rustic materials, pairing alder cabinetry with honed soapstone countertops and stainless-steel appliances. Five bedrooms, including two primary suites, provide ample space for family and guests. Deep covered porches, stone terraces, and a private hot tub patio extend the living spaces outdoors. Current ownership has invested extensively in preserving and enhancing the property. The handcrafted logs and exterior woodwork have been meticulously restored and maintained, with additional improvements including a new standing-seam steel roof, a detached two-car garage, an updated kitchen, and numerous other upgrades. A comprehensive list of improvements is available upon request. Despite its private setting, the property is approximately 20 minutes from Bozeman's restaurants, shops, galleries, and cultural amenities. The nearby South Cottonwood Trailhead provides access to thousands of acres of National Forest for hiking, horseback riding, mountain biking, and backcountry exploration. Hyalite Canyon, blue-ribbon trout streams, Big Sky Resort, and Yellowstone National Park are also within easy reach. More than a mountain home, this is a legacy property defined by enduring architecture, irreplaceable craftsmanship, and a setting that feels entirely its own.
