Teton Heritage Builders is nearing completion of a stellar project near Helena, MT.  The interior finishes are impeccable with only one room left which is scheduled for completion in just a few months.  As for the exterior, we’ve been working hard on the landscaping over the last month including this custom patio.

The photos above were taken directly off the rear entrance.  The stacked stone fireplace features a large cubby for split firewood on the left side.  To the right of the fireplace is a wood-fired oven and around the back of the oven is a large smoker.  One cool feature not readily apparent in the photos is the custom stone ice cooler.  Built directly into the masonry is a self-draining space for chilling beverages.  No more dumping out ice water the  morning after a grilling session.

Added into the patio system are a few large stone benches that alleviate seating issues when entertaining large parties.  This way all of the guests are comfortable when relaxing and looking out over the lake on those perfect Montana evenings.
