Monthly Rental- The Architect's Annex in the Bozeman's Downtown Brewery District

Imagine living nestled below the Bridger Mountains, yet up among the Aspen trees in the Historic Brewery District of Bozeman’s Northeast Neighborhood. You would be located on a quiet street with breweries, restaurants, and galleries within a stone’s throw. The heart of Main Street is only a couple of blocks away. Your views from the second and third floor are looking above to the Bridger Mountains, and below to the quiet bustle of people walking their dogs or taking their growler to one of our local breweries to be filled. At night there is a spectacular view of the moon moving across the clerestory windows from the master bedroom.

The Architects Annex was designed and built by architect and resident, Ken VanDeWalle and his wife Kristin VanDeWalle. The contemporary industrial space is an open loft design perfect for two people. The main living area is on the second floor, with access through a covered entrance balcony on the west side and a private covered balcony facing the residence interior courtyard, and the North Plum Avenue view to the south. As you walk into the entry room of the annex there is a laundry room on your left with a new Miele washer and dryer. Once through the sculptural entrance, the kitchen is to the right. The custom steel cabinets and pebbled concrete counter are well supplied with all of the tools you need to make a wonderful meal or just a delicious cup of coffee (no dishwasher). The attached bar makes for interactive cooking and easy serving. To the left is an inviting sitting area with a gas stove; the perfect spot to play a round of cribbage or read a good book. Step two steps down to the dining and living room with the walk-in closet and bathroom below the master bedroom area and off of the living room. There are two independent open third-floor lofts that are above the second-floor living area – one with the master bedroom & nook, and one as a fantastic study for remote working with a daybed.

The structure was built in a sustainable manner using primarily recycled old-growth timbers and materials. The annex is heated in the winter by in-floor radiant heating and in the summer, the 10 inch thick walls keep the building comfortable with the help of cool temperature evening flushing. Much of the interior fixtures and furniture are custom designed, including several beautiful sculptural steel doors, a two plank dining table, the bookcase/credenza unit, and an inviting steel bar and stools. The owners live across the courtyard in the main house.

Along with the elegant ambiance of the space, the annex can be filled with music to compliment the exceptional art from internationally renowned artists; American Expressionists Fay and Adair Peck, German Expressionist Alfred Hrdlicka, and Gyotaku fish printmaker, Charlie Brown.

Off-street and street parking is available. Utilities and secure ethernet connections & wifi included.

Enjoy the magic of the Architect’s Annex.
