The latest offering from Concierge Auctions takes us to Bitterroot Valley, Montana for the luxury real estate auction of the Spring Creek Ranch on July 7. The sale is being conducted in cooperation with Prudential Montana Real Estate. This expansive property offers 181 acres of room to roam with 1.5 miles of Bitterroot River frontage and multiple stocked ponds for fishing. The property includes two guest houses, equestrian facilities and the nine-bedroom main residence.

The main living area in the house is dominated by a massive 400-ton stone hearth fireplace that forms the heart of the home. The use of stone and rough timbers give this luxury residence a rustic appeal and huge windows show off natural vistas. The larger of the two guest residences, Fish Camp, is a two-bedroom house adjacent to the Bitterroot River with a hot tub and authentic wood stove. The other residence acts as the estate gate house at the second entrance to the property. At the main house there is a chandeliered dining pavilion with wood burning pizza oven and grill and a built-in fire pit with amphitheater-style seating.

This home was originally listed for $13 million. The auction has a published reserve of $4.5 million and a pre-sale estimate of $6 to $8 million.
