Welcome to 3018 Colter Avenue, an exceptional Southside Bozeman retreat offering space, privacy, and an unmatched connection to the outdoors, all within close proximity to some of Bozeman’s most desirable amenities. Set on an expansive lot just shy of half an acre, this premier hillside property backs to open space and Grafs Park, where meadow, trees, wetlands, and Matthew Bird Creek create a serene and ever-changing natural backdrop. Widely known by locals as the “sledding hill” home, this property offers a rare combination of recreation, privacy, and unforgettable views. Thoughtfully designed and extensively remodeled, this custom home by Jim Syth showcases quality craftsmanship and timeless finishes throughout. The open-concept main level is anchored by multiple gathering spaces, including a stunning sunroom with massive windows, where panoramic “treehouse” views and breathtaking sunrises take center stage. It’s the perfect place to start the day, with coffee in hand, as wildlife moves quietly through the landscape. With three fireplaces and both main-level and lower-level living areas, the home offers warmth, flexibility, and room to spread out, whether hosting, relaxing, or simply enjoying everyday life. The full walkout basement features an expansive office and a generous family room ideal for movie nights, game days, and gathering with friends. Step outside to a private, covered patio complete with a hot tub, hammock, fire pit, and beautifully terraced backyard designed for effortless indoor-outdoor living. The setting invites everything from quiet mornings to lively evenings, all surrounded by mature landscaping, including a “secret garden,” apple trees, lilacs, and peonies that bring color and texture throughout the seasons. Additional highlights include a brand-new 600± sq ft gym and a spacious dedicated office with French doors, offering flexibility for work, wellness, and creative pursuits. Ideally located with convenient access to Bozeman’s renowned trail systems, including the Mountains to Main Street network and nearby Sourdough Trail, as well as close proximity to Morningstar Elementary, Sacajawea Middle School, Museum of the Rockies, Montana State University, Bozeman Health, and Main Street, this property offers a rare balance of tranquility and connection. 3018 Colter Avenue is more than a home. It’s a place to grow into, settle into, and enjoy for years to come, surrounded by nature and the very best of Bozeman living.
