Panoramic 360-Degree Views, Creekside Calm & Endless Possibilities! Tucked away just off Edgewood Drive in the sought-after Haskill Basin area, this private 40+-acre sanctuary offers untouched natural beauty, with Walker Creek gently winding through the heart of the property. Private, secluded, and quiet, just minutes to Downtown Whitefish. This home has extensive bonus living areas, an abundance of storage, and a separate 1 bed/ 1 bath apartment on the lower level. Horse-friendly and ready for your vision. French doors, sun room, heated floors, and a fireplace in the primary bathroom, mudroom, office, and so much more! A must-see for your next legacy property. 1800 East Edgewood Drive is nestled at the crook of the elbow just past Haskell Creek, at the edge of the woods. The home sits quietly above open fields, a pond, and Walker Creek. Tucked into the trees, it's private and not readily visible, peaceful and secluded. To reside here is to be close to everything that makes Northwest Montana so special. Turn right when leaving the property, and you can be at Whitefish Lake in just 8 minutes, downtown Whitefish in 10 minutes, or the hospital in 15. The Amtrak train station is 10 minutes away, and Big Mountain skiing is just 25 minutes up the road. The Whitefish School District is only 8 minutes away, and Flathead Lake is about a 45-minute scenic drive south on Highway 93. Turn left and you'll reach Glacier Park International Airport in just 20 minutes, Columbia Falls shortly after, and West Glacier, the western entrance to Glacier National Park, in about 30 minutes. The Canadian border is roughly an hour away. Whether you enjoy hiking, biking, skiing (on water or snow), boating, fishing, hunting, or even flying a plane, this location puts it all within easy reach. The property includes a leased propane tank, a Generac generator, two mini-split units, dual heating and cooling systems, a private well, a septic system, and a diesel fuel tank. The home itself offers generous living space with four full bathrooms and a separate efficiency apartment, complete with a full kitchen and bath. The main floor features an open-concept design, with cedar siding on the exterior and exposed log beams inside. Large southwest-facing windows fill the space with natural light. The primary suite is located on the main level, with additional bedrooms upstairs. A hand-crafted log portico-built from timber harvested on the property-welcomes you into a private courtyard entrance. The oversized three-car garage connects to a functional mudroom and laundry area. Custom cabinetry throughout the home was crafted by the Moser Brothers of Martin City. The kitchen features hickory cabinets, and the butcher block island is from Boos Brothers. Internet service has been provided via Starlink. A second, lower garage, fully finished with French doors, overlooks the pond, creating a peaceful retreat or potential studio space. Another unfinished garage on the property would make a fun and rustic bunkhouse for kids.
The 43-acre parcel is a diverse blend of woods, fields, and water, with ample space to plant an orchard, build a barn or greenhouse, or even install a pickleball or tennis court. On clear nights, the stars sparkle brightly, and the North Star holds its place above it all. You could create a peaceful forest bathing trail or open up a view of Big Mountain by selectively thinning trees. The private driveway winds a half-mile from the main road to the home, an easy pace for observing local wildlife, including whitetail deer, sandhill cranes, ospreys, eagles, woodpeckers, kingfishers, and great blue herons. Coyotes, beavers, squirrels, and foxes also frequent the area. At night, mountain lions may call in the distance, and black bears might leave their tracks. Want to attract grizzlies? Just add a chicken coop.
Owls hoot after dark. Bats flit through the trees. Canada geese stop at the pond during their migrations, with several pairs often nesting and raising goslings by April. As the young grow, families gather together to graze and learn to fly. Turtles come to lay eggs in late May and early June. You can canoe or kayak on the pond, roast marshmallows around one of two fire pits, or even pitch a tent on the island and stargaze. A lot of life and living can happen on 43 acres. Or maybe you'll just take a nap on the deck.
