Montana Lighthouse, Estate of the Day

Filed under: Estates

Why this one? Because it's a lighthouse, in Bigfork, Montana. Okay, it's not so much a lighthouse as a house with a lighthouse-like structure appended to it. Still you have to admire the commitment to the nautical in this one. Most of the houses we see in Montana are full of antler chandeliers, roughhewn logs and western fabrics. Not so here. this one could easily be plunked down on an East Coast shoreline. Boat-shaped bookcases and nautical art add to the rather relentless theme decorating. The house is located south of Woods Bay and is perched above Flathead Lake for some truly beautiful views. The home is under 4,000 square feet and sits on one acre. It is listed at $2.95 million.

A large kitchen, exercise room, sauna, wine cellar, tons of deckspace and a patio with a hot tub as well as a dock with boat slips. The bird can be yours for $7.75 million. After the jump,
