Living above the clouds takes shape at this one-of-a-kind Whitefish retreat, set behind the gates of Elkhorn above Spencer and Skyles Lakes on 6.5 acres bordering national forest land. Inspired by an iconic forest service lookout, the recently completed main home pairs wild Montana character with fresh, modern finishes and unfiltered Flathead Valley views. Walls of windows and a stunning wraparound deck capture mountaintop light, while two fireplaces, a statement kitchen and thoughtful custom details make the interiors equally memorable. The 1,406 sq ft ADU adds 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom and a kitchenette above a remarkable 3 bay garage featuring honeycomb LED lighting and glass garage door panels that reflect the surrounding rock and forest. A suspended wooden walkway connects the garage and ADU to the main home, creating a cohesive mountain compound. Property sits behind a neighborhood community gate and a personal driveway gate as well for ultimate privacy. Smart home features and adventure in every direction complete a property that is unmistakably Montana.
