This Luxury Farmhouse in Columbia Falls is the whole package, with indoor saltwater pool, old-growth forest, an established lake, 4 recorded water rights, expansive hay fields, horse pasture, mature specimen trees, abundant wildlife and idyllic vistas in all directions. Sited on 40 fully-fenced and gated, unzoned acres, with almost 10,000 square feet under roof, 5BR/6BA, 9 car garage, gourmet kitchen. 4 fireplaces, enormous game/movie room, 2 laundry rooms and exceptional indoor saltwater pool. All bedrooms en suite. Well, septic and connected to natural gas. 4 HVAC zones, with gas-powered furnaces and central A/C. Central vacuum. Radiant floor heating under stone/tiled floors. Gorgeous slate and barnwood flooring. Granite/stone/marble counters throughout. Large outdoor entertaining deck, covered deck with spa, 2 circle driveways, porte cochere, grand entry and unrivaled, panoramic views, including direct views into Glacier National Park. With farmland quickly disappearing to massive subdivisions and the ever-increasing traffic of Whitefish and Kalispell, this property is sited in the picturesque Highway 206 corridor of Columbia Falls. Far from water/sewer infrastructure, this rapidly gentrifying area is far outside any path of future mass development potential and the gridlock that comes with it, while still being close to the amenities such development provides. Abundant, large tracts of Creston-topsoil farmland and family ranches remain in this corridor of unzoned paradise. This property is on high ground, with no HOA, covenants, deed restrictions, or area ordinances and is outside the new airport overlay. An ideal wedding/event/concert venue, VRBO or family compound. Being unzoned allows for additional construction without the expense, hassle and delay of building permits. A slice of peaceful, private FREEDOM and clearly Flathead County’s “last best place!”

Originally part of an 1895 homestead, the original home was built in 1913, but completely replaced in 2008 with the construction of the current modern home. Park under the porte cochere and enter through massive, custom double doors into the impressive grand foyer, with coat closet and powder room.

High-end, custom cabinetry, granite countertops, stone accents, custom lighting fixtures, a center-island that seats 5, and a Franke double stainless-steel sink with views of the Swan Range that will make you speechless complete the gourmet kitchen. Double glass doors off the breakfast room lead to a covered outdoor deck to enjoy your morning coffee or evening cocktail, with room for your pizza oven and bar seating. Adjacent is a 7-person Arctic saltwater spa with automatic Covanna cover. Step down to the massive outdoor deck, with BBQ, dining, and firepit areas, entry to the Indoor Pool Room, and adjacent to a grassy, fenced yard for lawn games and/or your fur babies’ enjoyment. Continue from the Family Room to a changing /storage room and downstairs en suite bedroom, which could also serve as an ideal Spa Room, Exercise Room or Maid/Nanny Quarters. Then enter the breathtaking, expansive Indoor Pool Room, with an extraordinary, heated saltwater pool with sitting bench, 4 waterfalls, bubblers, automatic cover, Clear Comfort saltwater system and touch screen controls. Recently built with travertine marble tile floors and wainscotting, a towel and lounging area, automatic ventilation system, a separate pool equipment/storage room, windowed walls to the north and south and a sliding glass door to the outdoor deck, the Indoor Pool area is an all-season highlight of this home.
