A sunny and serene modern mountain retreat set along the edge of close-in Sunshine Canyon on nearly three private acres off quiet Poorman Road. Just minutes to town, yet worlds away, with easy access to Sanitas, Lion's Lair and Bald Mountain trails. Framed by expansive south-facing decks and sweeping views, this is the kind of setting that rarely becomes available. Filled with natural light and surrounded by towering pines, this thoughtfully renovated contemporary home was designed to bring the outdoors in. The interior offers a seamless flow with an efficient, intentional layout that connects beautifully to its surroundings. Expansive windows and doors, paired with custom finishes, create a warm and refined atmosphere, all oriented toward stunning views of the jagged Indian Peaks, Open Space, Betasso Preserve, Sugarloaf Mountain and endless Colorado skies. Completely reimagined in 2013 by Kelly & Stone Architects and Melton Design Build, the home showcases high-level design and craftsmanship throughout. The open chef's kitchen is anchored by a generous Caesarstone island, ideal for gathering and entertaining, and is complemented by Thermador Professional Series appliances and a sunny corner dining nook. The living room is both inviting and dramatic, centered around a wood-burning fireplace wrapped in Colorado Buff stone and framed by large view windows. NanaWall folding doors open wide to the deck, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection that invites you to step out, take in the views and exhale. Located just 8 minutes from Boulder and close to trail systems including Boulder County Open Space and Mountain Parks, Bald Mountain and near Historic Gold Hill, this home offers a rare balance of accessibility and seclusion. This property captures the essence of foothills living. When people speak of views, this is what they have in mind. When they think of location, this is what they hope to find. And when they imagine coming home, this is how it should feel!
