The View
Panoramic Swan Mountain Range and Swan River from a private mountain-side perch — the headline of the listing for a reason.
The best view in Bigfork
A custom log home perched on a private mountain-side lot above Bigfork, with panoramic views of the Swan Mountain Range and the Swan River. Glacier National Park is a short drive north, Whitefish Mountain Resort is about forty-five minutes away, and downtown Bigfork is minutes down the hill for dining, shopping, and the Flathead Lake bay.

A Tour
Take the tour
A few quiet minutes inside the home — the great room, the remodeled kitchen, the newly redesigned primary suite, the loft, and the views from every window.
A custom log home, dialed in for Montana
Four bedrooms, two-and-a-half baths, and 4,000 square feet of custom log home perched on 4.39 wooded acres of private mountain side. The kitchen is freshly remodeled with custom slab counters and updated appliances; the main-level primary suite has snow-capped mountain views from the bed and a redesigned bath with mosaic tile, custom glass, and a free-standing tub. The great room runs on circle-sawn pine flooring, anchored by a wood-burning fireplace and a wet bar, with French doors out to a private deck. The dining room sits under a vaulted, log-exposed ceiling and a cozy wood stove. A finished walk-out basement adds two more bedrooms, a full bath, and access to a covered patio. Outside: a 40-foot covered porch with log spindles, a stone fire pit, a dedicated hot-tub room, a 3-car attached garage with workshop space, an exterior storage shed, and a gated, fully-fenced perimeter — wired for a generator hookup.
