One mile outside of the quaint mountain town of Lyons, Colorado, on coveted Apple Valley Road, sits this beautiful secluded home. The backyard borders a 24-acre conservation easement for ultimate privacy. Nestled in the Napa Valley-esque canyon in uncorporated Boulder County, this gem sits on nearly 3 acres with gorgeous natural granite outcroppings, Lyons sandstone, lodgepole pines, indigenous botannicals, fruit trees including: apples, pears, cherries, apricots, plums, chestnuts, mature lavender plants, & herbs woven throughout. The 9 sunlights bring the forest & mountain views into your space. The meditation trails throughout are stunning. The Frank LLoyd Wright style organic architecture of the home also features several recent remodels that include: a new boiler system, sunroom gas stove, Breckenridge granite counters, designer stainless steel appliances, quartz counters in all bathrooms, acacia & luxe vinyl floors throughout, new exterior stucco, windows, cistern pump, french drain, sprinkler system, and much more. Plenty of acreage to expand home, dry pasture/barn for horses, or a full garage (see above). Use of the river in Lyons for swimming, fishing, or floating is permitted & leads to Laverne Johnson Park by duckie raft, kayak, or inner tube. House has 750 sq ft. special irrigation exterior permit, recent Septic Smart Pass, 1200 gal cistern, well (free water), low utility costs, and fire hydrant within 50ft. No HOA.
