For the outdoorsy buyer on the hunt for a luxurious retreat with contemporary design, may we suggest this brand-new estate in Bozeman, MT?

The 4,417-square-foot, four-bedroom home sits on a 4.24-acre lot and is listed for $3,995,000.

It was custom designed by renowned architect Larry Pearson, as part of an exclusive residential community that was developed to take full advantage of the natural surroundings.

Built with intent

“This is the fourth home in the River Run on the Gallatin subdivision,” says listing agent Charlotte Durham, a broker with Big Sky Sotheby’s International Realty. “It’s an environmentally aware community that honors the natural beauty of Montana, with exposure to open fields, natural habitats, Riparian woods, and unencumbered access to the Gallatin River.”

Outside, there’s a fully stocked pond on-site, plus a private trail that leads down to the Gallatin River.

The home’s interior is open and inviting, Durham says.

“It is flooded with natural light and windows positioned to soak up the surrounding landscape,” she notes. “There is a well-appointed chef’s kitchen, complete with a custom breakfast nook.”

Each of the home’s spacious bedrooms have en suite bathrooms, complete with custom tile work. They also offer views of the Bridger Mountains and snow-capped Spanish Peaks.

The home features a range of luxurious finishes throughout, including barn wood, white-oak cabinetry, porcelain and quartz countertops, and premium Thermador appliances.

Indoor-outdoor flow is another highlight, and there’s a large rooftop deck that’s ideal for summer evenings.

And for those who love to host but still want privacy, there are attached guest quarters with a kitchenette and bathroom. The space is accessed via a breezeway that’s perfect for parties, with its barbecue area and fireplace.

Asking questions before building

The design of the home—and community—began with a question, Durham explains.

“Larry Pearson loves to ask questions,” she says. “His favorite ones start with the same word: ‘How.’ How do we tie the lines of architecture to this natural backdrop? How can we authentically connect humans with design—physically, visually, socially, and emotionally?”

And the home, which Durham calls “the perfect Montana retreat,” is the product of those philosophical queries.

Just 10 minutes from Bozeman and a short drive to Big Sky, this house flows from room to room—much like the river it’s set on. Renowned by fly-fishing enthusiasts the world over, the river is stocked with brook trout, brown trout, and rainbow trout.

This high-end abode is designed for “ease of living and access to the outdoors,” says Durham. “It would be an ideal vacation retreat or primary residence for anyone wanting to experience the true Montana lifestyle while relishing in the comfort of carefully curated, luxury finishes.”
