About this property

4 BD 2 BA Penthouse Historic Uptown Butte W/ Views

Over 4000 sq ft. of space with tons of light, views and historic character.

Four large bedrooms, two baths, a kitchen — and an absolutely enormous loft-like open space not to mention 15 foot ceilings, make for an experience unlike any other in Big Sky country. A raised area all along the south windows would be the instant focus for entertaining and also an endless source of inspiration as a sitting room or even a home office.
The space
Originally built to house the “manual arts” department at Butte High School, the building lost its purpose when the high school moved in 1938. (The main old high school building burned to the ground in 1946.) During World War II the Manual Arts Building served as a military induction center, and later would house the Butte Business College. Then, for years, the nearby Masonic Temple used it for its youth programs, DeMolay and Rainbow Girls.

Because of the building’s original construction as a school facility, the stairways are immense, more than eight feet wide. Everywhere, the light streams in — more and more as you go to the upper floors. Pets are welcome, but we do charge an extra $50 cleaning fee to make sure the space is usable for guests that might have pet allergies.
Guest access
Please note the loft is on the 4th floor of this building and requires some significant climbing up the large sets of stairs. If you or anyone in your party are not comfortable with this set up, our place might not be the best for you. Access into the building is a set code that will be given out the day of your arrival. There is another door (that will have the same code) to enter the loft space.

5 Stars – Perfect Stay with an Incredible Host!

We had a fantastic experience staying here with our 6th grade class and chaperones! From the start, our host was absolutely amazing—super communicative, kind, and incredibly helpful in working with us to figure out the best sleeping arrangements for our group. They went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and well taken care of. The location was ideal and the accommodations couldn’t have been better—clean, spacious, and perfectly suited for our needs. We’re so grateful for the hospitality and would absolutely stay here again!

Just perfect!

Stayed here for a basketball tournament with 2 other families. The location was great, and communication with the owner was fast and reliable. The property was amazing!! Old historic building, big open spaces, ping pong table, karaoke machine and oh my goodness the views! We will definitely be back!

Perfect Bridal Suite

A few of my bridesmaids and close friends stayed here and got ready for my wedding here. The location was perfect, the views and loft were beautiful. It fit our wedding aesthetic perfectly! The stairs were a bit of a trek but everything about the loft was worth it. Perfect home away from home!

College Visit

We stayed here while visiting our daughter who is attending Tech. We love this building and the proximity to all the things we were there to see and do. The ping pong table was a hit! The stairs didn’t even bother us. Just made us laugh at how out of shape we are. This is a beautiful open space with a neat view.

Historic Gem

We had so much fun staying here. Had a blast playing on the ping pong table! Lots of history in the area and building itself. Lots of things to enjoy close by. Does have a lot of stairs and we knew this staying here. We looked at it as good exercise. Very open space and lots of room. Definitely would stay here again!

Unique place to stay!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Jeff’s place is so unique to Butte. The location is perfect, close to everything you want to see. The place is very large with plenty of space for a family. We got a kick out of the stairs, walking through halls with offices & mining posters on the walls. You aren’t sure what to expect when you reach the top floor. When you do arrive to the loft, you’re blown away by the space. Butte is full of hidden gems and this is one of them.

Historic (and cool) Loft

This is a very interesting place as it is in a renovated old building. Very cool. There are lots of steps to get to the fourth floor but the listing makes that clear and it is worth the climb for such as unique space. It is quite large and even has a stage!!!!

Character central

I am a frequent vrbo user, and even own/list my own properties in various parts of the property. This penthouse was a really cool stay. While the furnishings and finishes of the property itself were a bit outdated and nothing special, the character and charm of the property was amazing. Located on the top floor of a historic building in uptown Butte, you view over the city and mountains is unmatched. You are walking distance from great restaurants and night life, and essentially have the building to yourself with businesses located below that remain closed during the nights and weekends. My kids had an absolute blast with a ping pong table, board games, and wide open floor plan to wild and play. The host is super responsive and accommodating. We used the property in place of a hotel for a high school basketball tournament over the weekend, and would absolutely come back our next time in town. If you aren’t picky on nice finishing or furniture, this is great choice for families or larger parties.

Classic Butte Penthouse Apartment

The property was just perfect for our family as we gathered from around the country to catch up and explore Butte. This is an uptown classic building and the apartment is on the 4th floor. (No elevator…the building was built in 1920)

Beautiful View

This property was great! It was equipped with everything we needed to cook meals. The space is incredible; plenty of room for different activities in different areas of the property. It was in walking distance to many restaurants, shops, and bars. The view is absolutely incredible and all of the guests just couldn’t get enough! The stairs are a little cumbersome, but we powered through it and it was worth it (my grandma took her time up them and she did great). I would definitely recommend this property and we hope to be back!
