13 Wildwood Rd

Gateway sits just past the entrance to Moonlight Basin, where the view opens west to the Spanish Peaks and the Madison Range. This two-bedroom residence looks out across all of it. Winter here has a rhythm. Gear lives downstairs in the ski room off the garage, so mornings start with boots on and a short ski to Stagecoach Lift. From there the whole of Big Sky Resort opens up, from Moonlight's tree-lined groomers to the Headwaters chutes and the tram to the summit of Lone Peak. Afternoons end on the balcony with the Spanish Peaks holding the last of the light. Summer trades the lift for the trail system, which the Gateway neighborhood touches directly. Hiking and riding leave from the door. Golf, dining, and the wider recreation of Moonlight Basin sit a few minutes away, and Big Sky Town Center and the Gallatin River a short drive down the mountain. The residence itself is 1,371 square feet on a single level, built for the mountains. Kitchen, dining, and living resolve into one room around a gas fireplace, with the balcony off the main space. Both bedrooms sit apart from the gathering area, each served by its own bath. Hardwood and tile throughout, in a mountain modern palette that serves well through all seasons. Air conditioning, forced air heat, and the attached one-car garage handle the rest. The association covers exterior maintenance, snow removal, and grounds, which is what makes a residence of this scale workable for owners who arrive for a week and leave the keys behind. Membership in the Moonlight Basin Club is also a benefit with opportunities for golf, robust dining, and the amenities that have shaped the community since its founding. This residence has never been rented. It takes just as easily to long weekends, to a full winter in residence, or to a rental calendar in a size range that rarely comes up. Two bedrooms, one level, nothing wasted, nothing deferred. The powder days sell it. The July evenings are what keep people.
