1600 old darby road

Perched high above the valley, this extraordinary property offers a world of its own—where sweeping vistas of the Bitterroot and Sapphire Mountains, the Bitterroot River, and the valley floor unfold in every direction. Spanning 24.67 acres, the property affords exceptional privacy and a rare sense of serene seclusion. The residence has been masterfully reimagined through a comprehensive renovation, featuring a refined chef’s kitchen, a spa-inspired primary en-suite bath, new flooring throughout the home, and a new roof. Thoughtful enhancements continue outdoors with an expansive deck designed for elevated entertaining, beautifully refreshed landscaping with an inviting firepit, and a three-car garage that is insulated, heated and further enhanced with two additional storage rooms and a distinctive cupola. Comfort is ensured year-round with electric baseboard heat, a dramatic fireplace, two Rinnai heaters, updated wall heaters in the bathrooms, and a mini-split system for air conditioning. With 5,106 square feet of living space, the home is designed to capture breathtaking views from nearly every room, while offering seamless flow for entertaining including a transitional gathering space between the kitchen and dining area. The main-level primary suite provides a private retreat with en-suite amenities, while the finished basement—with its own exterior entrance—offers flexible accommodations for guests or extended family living. The upper level features two guest bedrooms each with a stunning view and its own bath. The home is equipped with an engineered lift for added convenience. Set along one of the valley’s most coveted view corridors, the property remains largely in its natural state, creating an ideal habitat for wildlife. A deeded walking path provides access to the Bitterroot River, while the BRID ditch traverses the land, delivering irrigation water for the underground system—enhancing both the beauty and functionality of this remarkable offering.
