44142 buffalo road

Welcome to 44142 Buffalo Drive, where the waters of Flathead Lake follow you from room to room and become the backdrop to everyday life in this contemporary mountain home. With deeded Flathead Lake access approximately five minutes away, with a concrete boat launch ramp- you can do more than admire the view, you have the freedom to swim, boat and fully enjoy all the Flathead Lake life offers. Set on 3.75 acres just above the west shore in Dayton, this 5319-square-foot home was built to take full advantage of its remarkable setting. The scale is impressive, but the opportunity to experience the lake from within the home is what stays with you: soaring ceilings and windows, broad lake and mountain views, and generous spaces designed for gathering with room to relax. The open floor plan flows from the kitchen and dining area to a great room that feels like it is part of the lake. New wide-plank flooring, warm elegant wood cabinetry, stone surfaces and a copper-colored metal roof give the home a grounded mountain home character without relying on rustic to mean Montana. The home boasts seven possible bedrooms and flexible living areas spreading across multiple levels. The opportunity continues outside, where the new owner’s vision. Create native grass areas, a fire-pit gathering space or a simple low-maintenance landscape that keeps the attention where it naturally goes—to the lake. The lower half of the acreage the the east of Buffalo Rd, includes a mix of sloping and more flat sections that the right person can absolutely capitalize on. The sale includes the construction of a new 30-by-40-foot shop to provide ample space for indoor boat parking, along with additional space for vehicles and all Montana-sized storage needs. At fifteen minutes to amenities of Lakeside, and 75 minutes from Glacier National Park- it offers a quieter lake setting while keeping the broader Flathead within reach. Homes like this don’t blend in, do not wait. The home’s existing layout includes six bedrooms, with the septic system permitted for three-bedroom capacity. The three-bedroom designation applies to the septic permit and does not change the home’s existing layout. The property is served by a shared well. Septic and shared well documentation are available in the associated documents.
