Contemporary Elegance on the River. Imagine watching the colors of the river change as the sun rises on your back deck, enjoying 22 acres of shared, riverfront walking trails accessed from your back yard, swimming, fishing in the river just steps from your front door, and spending cozy winter days staring at the snow-capped peaks from your living room's wall of windows. All of this is possible, in the surrounds of a magnificently remodeled home at 440 Big Flat Road in Missoula. Located near the confluence of the Bitterroot River and the Clark Fork River, this home offers breathtaking views and epic recreational opportunities, plus a wonderfully livable floor plan and tasteful finishes throughout. The main level of the home features a generous great room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace and over-sized, glass doors that frame the view and provide ample access to the new, elevated deck. The cool tones of the wide-plank, wood floors complement the slightly warmer hue of the vaulted, tongue-and-groove ceiling, accented by exposed, black beams. The living area is large enough for multiple seating areas, and open to the dining area and kitchen. Designed for style and efficiency, the kitchen features a generous island with a waterfall, quartz countertop, custom walnut cabinetry, and a cantilevered addition for the kitchen sink and its awesome west-facing window. High-end, stainless appliances, including a six-burner Wolf range, are the workhorses of the new kitchen, while the sky-colored, tile backsplash adds a hint of whimsy. A mudroom with custom built-ins, wine cooler and access to the attached garage is perfectly placed next to the kitchen. Also, tucked away for privacy, this level includes a half bath. The middle level of the home is occupied by the primary suite. Quiet and private, the suite is a retreat featuring a large bedroom with walk-in closet and a meticulously designed bathroom with jetted tub, heated floor, and a view from the shower that is second to none, regardless of which of the six shower heads are being enjoyed. The laundry is conveniently located on this level as well. Descending to the ground level, the home includes two additional bedrooms, and a cozy second living room with access to the incredible backyard. Enjoy soaks in the hot tub under the stars, lots of elbow room, and the easiest path to the river via the adjacent HOA access road to the community well.
