Property Description
The Powerhouse: a storied estate with three predominant features: private livewater, an origin story interwoven with Montana's statehood, and marvelous beguiling tranquility. The original stone building was constructed, stone by stone, in 1908 to harness the waters that flow from Blaine Springs. Hydroelectricity, sourced here, lit the halls of Virginia City when it served as the Capital. And oh oh oh the stories these walls could tell since then. Two foot thick stone walls convey an ambiance of strength and enduring craftsmanship. Since the public utility expired - and technology evolved - previous owners converted the structure into a sprawling magnificent but comfortable home. They captured its tangible spirit and enhanced it with a complimentary addition. Lush, verdant grounds foster an oasis in an otherwise arid landscape. Towering cottonwoods provide habitat for hunting ospreys and create a wind break line. There are 6 bedrooms, 6 of which are ensuite, and 4 of which are creekside including the primary suite. Vintage bath fixtures are in mint condition and showcase a light-hearted pastel palette. Antiques, artwork, and artifacts encapsulate the West and its stories. You'll wander from room to room with wonder, imbibing the heritage of those who settled here generations ago. Bozeman and its airport are 90 minutes away. Yellowstone National Park, which some of us call America’s best idea, is also about 90 minutes away.
