About this home
Superb elevated views of Flathead Lake, the Mission Mountains, Wild Horse Island, and the surrounding valley define this exceptional 5.03-acre Big Arm DREAM parcel awaiting your ESTATE home. Set above the lake with southern exposure, the property captures beautiful light from eastern dawns to western sunsets, creating an ideal setting for a custom Montana retreat. Much of the hard work has already been done: a level building pad is in place, the driveway has been constructed, and power is already at the property. Access is easy via paved private Early Dawn Dr, offering a rare combination of privacy, convenience, and view quality. Native trees, wildflowers, and grasses create a natural, low-maintenance landscape that blends beautifully with the hillside setting. No zoning or HOA, with protective covenants in place to help preserve long-term value. Located just 2 miles from Big Arm State Park, with camping, beach access, and a boat ramp for enjoying Flathead Lake. Convenient to Polson, Kalispell, Glacier National Park, and endless Northwest Montana recreation. 28711 Early Dawn Dr offers the kind of elevated Flathead Lake view experience that is increasingly difficult to find. This is not an ordinary 5-acre parcel; it is a private, view-focused homesite with major site improvements already completed and a setting that captures the full Northwest Montana lifestyle.
The property sits above Big Arm with expansive, unmatched views across Flathead Lake, Wild Horse Island, the Mission Mountains to the east, and the surrounding valley. The southern exposure provides excellent natural light and sun exposure throughout the day, while the orientation allows you to enjoy both the soft morning light over the mountains and dramatic western sunsets across the lake and hillsides.
A level building pad has already been constructed, giving future owners a clear and usable homesite from day one. The driveway is in, power is already at the property, and access is straightforward from Hwy 93 via paved private Early Dawn Dr. This combination of view, access, power, and prepared building area significantly reduces the uncertainty often associated with raw land in hillside settings. See the attached drawings for earlier site plans showing a prospective well and septic location; buyers will apply to the DEQ for a new septic permit. Well log information in the area is also attached in the Documents.
The 5.03-acre parcel provides privacy and breathing room while still remaining convenient to services, recreation, and regional destinations. Native trees, grasses, and seasonal wildflowers create a beautiful natural landscape with an easy-care feel. The setting is peaceful and private, yet not remote.
Big Arm State Park is approximately 2 miles away and offers camping, a beach area, picnic opportunities, and a public boat ramp for easy enjoyment of Flathead Lake. Spend the day boating, fishing, swimming, paddling, or exploring the shoreline, then return to your private elevated homesite above the lake.
The location also provides convenient access to Polson for everyday shopping, restaurants, medical services, and lakefront amenities. Kalispell is within easy reach for larger retail, medical services, Glacier Park International Airport, and broader Flathead Valley conveniences. Glacier National Park, Whitefish, Blacktail Mountain, golf, hiking, fishing, hunting, skiing, and countless outdoor activities are all part of the larger lifestyle appeal.
The property has no zoning and no HOA. Protective covenants are in place to help preserve the character and long-term value of the area. The covenants allow temporary RV or trailer use for a two-year period during construction, which gives owners flexibility while building but does not allow long-term RV occupancy as a permanent residential use. This is an important distinction for buyers evaluating neighboring properties or future neighborhood appearance — the covenants are designed to prevent long-term temporary housing situations while still accommodating the practical needs of construction.
Local neighbors currently contribute voluntarily toward snow removal for the private road, helping support year-round accessibility.
For buyers seeking privacy, sun exposure, exceptional views, and a strong head start toward building, this parcel offers a rare opportunity to create a custom Montana retreat overlooking one of the most iconic lake and mountain landscapes in the state.
Due to recently passed legislation, property tax bills for 2024 and prior years may not reflect the future tax burdens on non-owner-occupied residential properties. Tax impact will be determined by buyer's use. Information deemed reliable but not warranted by listing office or the listing agent. Buyers & agents are advised to conduct their own due diligence....
