From a lakeside home in Montana to a modern mountain retreat in Northern California to a traditional mountain-view house in Colorado, here’s a look at what about $2 million buys right now in three mountain settings.
Eureka, Montana
Lakeside living at its finest, this modern retreat abutting Glen Lake in Eureka, Montana, has a front-row seat of the action with a massive outdoor deck that overlooks the water. The views are equally spectacular inside, where floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room create the sense of floating above the water.
Features: Open-concept living space on the main floor incorporates a vaulted-ceiling living room with a fireplace, an updated chef’s kitchen and a dining area. There are five bedrooms and four bathrooms in more than 4,000 square feet of living space including a primary suite with a wall of windows that center on the lake.
