About 5440 Sapphire Ridge Rd
Your Montana dream begins here-where nearly 20 acres of untamed beauty meet a home that’s been thoughtfully and extensively reimagined. Perched on a private ridge between the Bitterroot and Sapphire Mountains in Florence, this 4-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom retreat offers the perfect blend of modern comfort and rustic elegance. From the moment you arrive, you’ll feel the magic of wide-open space, endless views and the kind of quiet that only Montana can offer. Inside, no detail has been overlooked. Rich knotty alder trim and doors complement the newer flooring throughout, creating a warm, grounded feel. The kitchen is a showstopper-fully remodeled with striking black leathered granite countertops, GE Cafe stainless steel appliances, a cast iron farmhouse sink, and custom Alder DeWils cabinetry that stretches to the ceiling, complete with classic crown molding. A tumbled subway tile backsplash adds the perfect finish, and the oversized island is built for cooking, gathering and memory-making. The kitchen flows effortlessly into a dining and living area designed to take full advantage of the panoramic mountain views—whether you’re hosting friends or enjoying a quiet night in. The main-level primary suite is a true retreat, featuring an oversized closet and spa-like ensuite with a tiled soaking tub and shower combo. A French door leads you from the primary directly out onto the back deck to greet the sunrise or unwind under the stars. This level also includes a stylish half bath, plenty of storage, and access to the finished two-car garage. Downstairs, a fully finished basement offers incredible flexibility: a cozy living area warmed by a pellet stove, a guest bedroom and full bathroom with tiled shower, a dedicated office or bonus room, plus a laundry room with Speed Queen washer and dryer and multiple storage closets. Upstairs, two oversized bedrooms with vaulted dormer ceilings feel airy and bright. A well-appointed bathroom with dual-sink vanity, stone countertops, and a tiled soaking tub brings functionality and charm. Outside, the land is what sets this property apart. Nearly 20 acres of rolling terrain, mature trees, and sweeping views offer a true Montana experience. A 20x30 pole barn with dual open lean-tos, plus a 10x12 storage shed, provide endless possibilities—whether you dream of horses, livestock, hobby farming, or simply room to roam. This is more than a home—it’s a lifestyle. A rare opportunity to live immersed in nature, yet close enough to town to stay connected. If you’ve been searching for space, privacy, and that peaceful, elevated Montana way of life—welcome home.
