Remember the thrill of your childhood treehouse?
The owners of this Whitefish, Montana, home didn’t see any need to give up that heady, perched among-the-branches feeling just because they’re adults.

For five years, they had lived next door to the steep building site adjacent to the slopes of Whitefish Mountain Resort, and they couldn’t help but imagine the kind of home they might create there given the chance.
