Montana High Life: Inside a New $13mil Treasure State Property

BUTTE, MT - What does your dream home look like to you? We all have the ideal vision of a future dream home. No matter where you are in life, you always seem to have a version of a dream home that is usually unobtainable, though that's not necessarily a bad thing, and usually impossible to create or find. That's the whole point: it's dreamy and it's fun to think about. I for one am always happy with what I have, but I think its healthy to dream big and be creative with it.

Yesterday, I covered the 10 newest and best listings here in Montana. I'll be updating that post weekly, but for the time being, I saw one listing in particular that is mind-boggling in its amenities, its features, and, of course, its price. Though most of us can't afford it, I thought we could explore the property together and get a little slice of the high life that I personally will surely never be able to afford. However, I can totally see myself getting invited there for a dinner, hanging out for like 2 hours on the massive patio before heading home and recounting the story of the time I had dinner in a $13mil home for the rest of my life like the sad loner I am. That was mostly a joke.

I want you to share that experience with me. So before I keep digging myself into a deeper hole—akin to the 4th biggest manmade hole in the world here in Montana—let's get into it. I'll be taking you through this property, photo by photo, and trust me, stick around until the end: its worth it to hang along for the journey. You won't believe what this property in Darby has to offer to some lucky folks who end up buying it, who should buy with the intention of carrying on its legacy: a retreat for a family and their friends to enjoy in the peace of the Montana country.

Here's a sneak peek into the newly listed $13 million property here in Montana.

Wow, that was a lot. This piece of country may not be affordable to many, but it sure is fun to look at and appreciate what the 3 different owners each have added. If you're lucky enough to be the fourth, we ask that you carry on the legacy and tradition of the family estate and keep the love of one another alive.
