Steps to the Gondola | Ski-In/Ski-Out Luxury Penthouse

Welcome to 31 Slalom Trail #401, a modern and beautifully appointed slope-side penthouse located in Big Sky’s sought-after Beaverhead Condos. Just steps from the new gondola and with unbeatable ski-in/ski-out access, this nearly new condo offers the perfect blend of luxury, convenience, and comfort for families and adventurers alike. Whether you’re here to chase fresh powder, explore Big Sky’s trails, or simply relax and take in the stunning mountain views, this home places you in the heart of it all.

What You’ll Love
This slope-side retreat pairs Big Sky adventure with elevated comfort. Take in breathtaking views of the Spanish Peaks and Madison Range through floor-to-ceiling windows that fill the open kitchen, dining, and living areas with natural light. After skiing straight home, step out to one of two private decks, one perfect for morning coffee and the other featuring a private hot tub where you can unwind beneath Montana’s star-filled skies. Inside, the mountain-modern design blends warm textures and clean lines with a cozy fireplace and plush seating. An in-building elevator brings you directly to your condo’s door, while a heated ground-level garage keeps your gear dry and ready for the next day’s adventure. Every corner of this home balances style, convenience, and the beauty of Big Sky living.

Ski Access and Adventure
Skiers of all abilities will love the unbeatable access from this condo. Simply step outside, click into your skis, and glide straight down to the new Big Sky Resort gondola, the base, or the Explorer Double Chair for effortless access to the mountain’s world-class terrain. When you’re ready for a lunch break or a cup of hot cocoa, take the White Wing ski run, shown right on Big Sky Resort’s trail map, to ski directly back to the condo, finishing right at your heated garage. Whether you’re learning the ropes, exploring groomers, or chasing powder, this premier slope-side location makes it easy to maximize every moment on the mountain.

Ideal for Families and Ski-Loving Groups
This modern mountain penthouse is the perfect base for families and friends who love to ski, explore, and relax together. The open-concept living area, with its cozy fireplace, mountain views, and spacious dining setup, creates a natural hub for connection after days on the slopes. The fully equipped kitchen makes mealtime a breeze, while two private decks and a private hot tub provide the ideal spots to unwind under the Montana sky. With true ski-in/ski-out access, a short glide to the new gondola, and the ability to ski directly back to your door, it’s easy for everyone in your group to come and go at their own pace. Thoughtful bedroom layouts offer comfort and privacy, and the building’s elevator and heated garage add convenience for families with gear in tow. Whether you’re swapping stories by the fire or watching the sunrise over the Spanish Peaks, this home is designed for effortless mountain living.

-- Home Layout and Details --
This spacious, thoughtfully designed penthouse offers the ideal layout for comfort, connection, and relaxation. The open-concept great room invites guests to gather with plush seating for up to 14, a gas fireplace, and a 65” TV with a Sonos surround sound system. From here, step out onto the main balcony to take in panoramic views of the Spanish Peaks and Madison Range, complete with outdoor seating and a gas fireplace (currently operational only in summer months). A wall-mounted iPad lets you control the lighting, sound system, and Apple TV with ease, creating the perfect atmosphere for cozy evenings after a day on the slopes.
The modern kitchen features sleek Bosch stainless steel appliances, a large island with seating for five, and everything you need to prepare family-style meals or apres-ski snacks. The adjacent dining area offers a spacious table with seating for eight, with additional bar seating to ensure everyone has a spot to gather together. A second private deck with a hot tub and Sonos sound system provides an inviting place to unwind under the stars while enjoying your favorite music.

When it’s time to rest, three primary bedrooms each offer a private retreat, complete with blackout blinds, ceiling fans, and en-suite bathrooms featuring walk-in showers. The first primary bedroom includes a king bed, walk-in closet, and TV, while the second and third both feature queen beds and stylish finishes for added comfort. Two additional bunk rooms, each with twin-over-full bunks, share a hallway bath with a shower/tub combo, perfect for kids or singles traveling together.

On the ground floor, the heated garage is designed with skiers in mind, featuring non-slip rubber mats, benches, ski racks, hooks for drying outerwear, and a 12-pair boot dryer. At the end of the day, you can ski straight back to the garage, an unmatched convenience that makes this mountain home truly exceptional.
Sleeps 12 in beds; up to 14 guests allowed.

-- Things to Know --
We’re proud to be a locally owned and operated property management company, which means we’re nearby and happy to help with anything you need before, during, or after your stay, whether it’s assistance with the home or recommendations for dining and activities in Big Sky.

Please note, smoking is not permitted anywhere on the property, and pets are not allowed unless prior authorization is granted by Two Pines Properties.

This home does not have air conditioning. Like most homes in Big Sky, it stays comfortable in summer thanks to the cool mountain climate. For a true Montana experience, open the windows at night to let in the crisp mountain air, then close them and draw the blinds in the morning to help keep the home naturally cool throughout the day.

Travel Tip: We highly recommend a vehicle during your stay to make exploring Big Sky simple and convenient. During the winter months, a 4WD or AWD vehicle is strongly advised, as snow and mountain conditions can change quickly.

Couldn't be any better.

The hillside location is perfect rather than having to fight traffic leaving the resort daily. The condo felt much bigger than the pictures portrayed and was extremely clean with top notch finishes. Would definitely stay here again!

Christmas week with family

Huge penthouse space with ample space for large multi-generational family get together. The private garage with boot dryers is awesome. It is about a 2 minute walk to the slope to ski down to the base. Highly recommend this place.

Family ski vacation

Definitely would stay here again. Space was incredible for a large group. Ski in was absolutely accurate. Ski out was a little more challenging lol. Property management was outstanding in help with some issues. Two Pines definitely cared about our comfort and ability to have a great vacation.
