About this property

Welcome to 8937 Sandy Creek Lane sitting at the edge of Sypes Canyon on 12.33 acres, built to face the valley. The original owner spent a year living on the land before breaking ground, getting the sun angles right, watching how light moves through the trees, orienting every window with intention. The result is a home that earns what it looks at. The layout runs four levels: a primary living floor with open kitchen, living, mud room and wood burning stove. The master suite sits on the upper level show casing the views with a large walk in closet, en-suite and access to the roof top deck at the end of the hall. A fully independent lower level with its own two bedrooms, full kitchen, and bath. That lower level is turnkey -- separate entrance, complete, its own world while still being tied into the main home. Upstairs and down, the home is filled with light and long sight lines toward the valley. Outside is where this property opens up. Three distinct outdoor spaces face different directions and serve different purposes. The rooftop crow's nest is covered -- on the Fourth of July, you watch the whole valley light up from up there in almost any weather. The lower walkout patio runs alongside a hot tub and bar, backed by the Ridge. Behind the main house, a shaded retreat sits among raised garden beds, fenced and deer-proofed -- productive, private, quiet. The 14x28 shop is real working space: 50-amp service, insulated walls sheathed in plywood. A separate fenced garden , a gazebo, and a two-car garage with 10-foot ceilings round out the structures. Public land backs the property on two sides -- State and Federal -- with a private trail from the back door to the Ridge and the Bridger Traverse. The forest is active: bear, moose, elk, mountain lion, fox, owl, wild turkey. The home is self contained with 1000 gallon cistern, buried propane take and solar covers the electricity. This home was intentionally designed to live in the light, showcase the valley, and be outside in every season all while being 15 minutes from Bozeman.
