Nestled at the base of the Foothills in Boulder’s coveted Newlands enclave, this 1950s mid-century modern ranch rests on an oversized lot with inspiring mountain views. Offering a rare blend of character and potential, the interior flaunts vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, vast skylights and corner windows that bathe the main living area in natural light. Distinctive fireplaces — one a rotating wood-burning centerpiece — anchor the inviting spaces. A walkout lower level with a gas fireplace and a large storage room provides functional flexibility. Enjoy al fresco moments on the private, elevated side patio with stunning Flatirons vistas, surrounded by lush, mature landscaping. With a newer furnace and A/C and a two-car attached + heated garage, this residence is perfectly livable while offering exciting opportunities for customization or expansion — such as building above the garage. This home is a timeless gem with endless possibilities in one of Boulder’s most sought-after neighborhoods.
