Additional Highlights & Details:
• Offered furnished minus art, collectibles, antiques, personal items and owners’ exclusion list.
• Modern comforts include an air source heat pump, high-speed cable internet, and a hot tub overlooking the lake. A small spring-fed creek trickles through the yard and you enjoy exceptional privacy from lush landscaping.
• Owner's Retreat: The entire upstairs is a private sanctuary with a loft, office, spacious bedroom, walk-in closet, and luxurious bathroom featuring a jetted tub with breathtaking lake views, dual vanities, and separate shower.
• Lower Level: Two guest bedrooms and a recently remodeled 3/4 bath.
• Outdoor Paradise: Lush, level lawn ideal for games and gatherings; thoughtful landscaping enhances seclusion; direct access to recreational lands across the street. There are even fruit trees (apples and cherries) along with a lush patch of rhubarb and berries.
• Versatile Land: Main parcel (1.62 acres) with home and lake frontage + new well; North parcel (3.54 acres) with spring and cistern for irrigation; South parcel (6.72 acres) traversed by Hellroaring Creek, it is quite brushy between the game trails but enjoys a lot of flat spaces and potential build sites (subject to county approval) with creek/lake views. The Creek itself is amazing as it gushes down from the mountains above.
• The two parcels across the street border CSKT Lands for recreational enjoyment (annual permit required on tribal lands.)
• Location: Just 4 miles to Polson for shops, dining, golf, and medical facilities; near Glacier National Park and two ski resorts for year-round appeal.
• Pull out your kayaks, paddleboards or canoes and paddle up and down the shore enjoying the best that life has to offer! Flathead Lake is renowned for crystal clear water, and it is the largest natural freshwater lake west of the Mississippi. While the lake is huge and never crowded, you will enjoy fishing, boating, skiing and swimming on what is surely one of the best lakes in the country!
• The water in the lake is lowered about 10' each winter to provide storage room for all of the spring melt from the snow in the mountains; the lake will be close to full pool by the end of May each year. The current photos were mostly taken in December – February, and show the lake between full pool and partially drawn down. By the time the water is warm enough to jump in, you'll be out there on it with boats and floats!
• This private oasis is just 65 miles south of the glory and the majesty of Glacier National Park, known as the Crown of the Continent, and even closer you'll find the Glacier Park International Airport and all of the shopping and medical facilities of Kalispell. Just down the road is the smaller town of Polson that also provides shopping, entertainment and medical services.
• Further south is the town of Missoula with another International Airport, medical facilities, the Univ of Montana and a multitude of entertainment, dining, and shopping experiences.
• Two excellent ski resorts are less than two hours drive, and all of the incredible abundance of other outdoor recreation is also nearby.
• From the Polson Chamber's website: "The broad, sweeping Mission Valley, south of Polson, is bordered by the rugged, snow-capped Mission Mountains. At the foot of the mountains is Flathead Lake. Flathead Lake is the largest natural freshwater lake in the United States, west of the Mississippi River. Studies at the Flathead Biological Station show that water quality in Flathead Lake is among the best in the world. The Flathead River flows through Polson and features the Seli’š Ksanka Qlispe’, formerly Kerr Dam. The dam is located at the outlet of Flathead Lake in Polson. Just south of Polson, visitors can see large herds of bison, elk, deer, antelope and barn sheep at the National Bison Range at Moiese. Bird watchers will enjoy the Ninepipes and Pablo Wildlife Refuges. Visit one of our museums, The Miracle of America, the Polson-Flathead Historical Museum, or the Peoples Center in Pablo. All offer many displays and historic memorabilia. Polson also has several city parks situated along the lake and the beautiful Polson Golf Course."
