302 Quarry Drive, Somers

This custom architect’s home combines a reclaimed antique barn frame with a new handcrafted log cabin to create a unique 3 bedroom/3-1/2 bath paradise. Nested high above Somers Bay in a very private forested lot, this home has spectacular views overlooking Flathead Lake & the majestic Swan Mountain range beyond. Every detail of this home is meticulously designed to complement its setting, from the warmth of the heart pine wood floors & heavy barn timbers to the rustic feel of the locally crafted logs in the Primary Bedroom suite. The main portion of the home has an open Living/Dining/Kitchen floor plan & opens onto an expansive porch with stunning views of the valley below. The Living Room has a large two-story stone “rumford” fireplace complete with a rare 300 year-old salvaged timber mantle recently pulled from Flathead Lake. The fully equipped eat-in kitchen has a large island & custom wood/glass cabinets. Open shelving & custom iron hardware provides both beauty & function. The second-floor loft bedroom has its own private bathroom and features a reclaimed cypress wood ceiling and hand forged iron hardware. A loft door can open to the Living Room and allows enjoyment of the stone fireplace below. The walkout basement is accessed from the first floor and offers another bedroom suite with its own private bathroom and covered private entry. The main room offers plenty of recreational or sleeping/bunk opportunities in addition to having several large storage rooms. A wood burning stove completes the cozy feel of this room. The house is designed and built for year-round comfort in its Montana climate. In addition to the well-insulated SIP construction of the walls and roof, the home is equipped with a hybrid electric/gas heating system with a steam humidifier and full central air-conditioning. The house has a fresh-air “Heat Recovery System” for a healthy indoor environment even when the house is completely sealed from the outdoor cold. In addition, the Primary Bathroom and Second Floor Bathroom have heated floors and “on-demand” hot water. This home is equipped with a custom security system (exterior cameras, exterior window/door sensors, and interior motion detectors) and can be monitored and controlled remotely. The heating/cooling/humidity systems and bathroom floor heat can also be remotely controlled and monitored. The home is perfectly sited on a secluded 5.58 acre parcel and takes full advantage of the natural beauty of the surrounding Montana forest and natural rock outcroppings. The forest is filled with wildflowers including blue Lupine, yellow Balsam Arrowroot , white Ninebark and Golden Current.
