Over two acres, unobstructed Flatirons views, and a Boulder location that is nearly impossible to replicate. Positioned just outside city limits-offering the benefit of lower Boulder County taxes-this exceptional property is within walking distance of Boulder Reservoir and approximately five minutes from downtown Boulder. Surrounded by open space and Colorado's iconic foothills, the land offers privacy, breathtaking sunsets, and mountain views from nearly every window. Enjoy the existing home as it is, modernize it with ease, or create an entirely new vision from the ground up! With more than two acres to work with, the possibilities are as expansive as the views-a rare opportunity in Boulder. The well-loved five-bedroom home is filled with warmth, character, and unique craftsmanship. A circular cobblestone driveway leads to an inviting interior featuring Italian and Vermont marble, reclaimed barn wood beams, river rock details, and a statement kitchen island wrapped in wood from a decommissioned ship. Walls of windows showcase the surrounding landscape, while a main-level office, private-entry studio or workshop, cozy living room, and separate dining room with a wood burning fireplace, and a finished basement provide flexible spaces for working, gathering, and entertaining.Outside, mature landscaping, seasonal color, and a tranquil pond create a peaceful retreat. Existing fencing, shelters, and heated water lines offer added possibilities for horses, livestock, chickens, gardening, or other acreage pursuits. Whether you are searching for a distinctive Boulder home, space to thoughtfully renovate, or an extraordinary homesite on which to start fresh, this property presents a rare combination of land, views, privacy, and proximity. Let your imagination run free and create something truly special in one of Boulder's most coveted settings.
