Montallori Stone Lodge
A Private Mountaintop Luxury Retreat with Panoramic Views
Perched high above the surrounding landscape, Montallori Stone Lodge offers rare privacy, breathtaking long-range views across three states, and a true sense of escape. From vibrant fall foliage in shades of gold, orange, and maroon to snow-dusted evergreens during the holidays, every season feels unforgettable. With virtually no light or sound pollution, nights are perfect for stargazing, meteor showers, or quiet evenings under the stars.
Soak in the scenery from expansive decks, private Juliette balconies, the covered hot tub deck, or while dining together in one of two dining areas that comfortably seat ten. Choose between an indoor dining space warmed by the fireplace or a covered stone patio for al fresco meals, both offering uninterrupted mountain views.
Old-World craftsmanship defines the lodge, blending natural stone, French oak, and leather accents throughout. Designed for connection and comfort, the home features multiple fireplaces and fire pits, overstuffed sofas, billiards, and two state-of-the-art movie rooms with surround sound and gigabit fiber-optic internet.
Up to ten guests enjoy exceptional rest in four bedrooms, each with ceiling fans and private en-suite bathrooms featuring heated floors and rustic-luxe finishes. Two bedrooms offer premium Sleep Number® beds with adjustable firmness and foot warmers. The primary king suite includes a seating area, walk-in closet, and direct access to the covered deck and hot tub.
The gourmet kitchen is a dream for food lovers, equipped with a Wolf six-burner gas range, Sub-Zero refrigerator, double ovens, warming drawer, two dishwashers, and chef-grade cookware. Outdoor cooking options include an infrared gas grill, Traeger pellet smoker, and a garden of fresh herbs.
