Welcome home to a meticulously updated raised ranch perched on 1.5 quiet acres, just 10 mins to Boulder or Lyons. This peaceful sanctuary blends unbeatable proximity with ultimate low-maintenance living. Inside, soaring ceilings & massive windows flood the open floor plan, framing spectacular sunrises. The chef's kitchen features a sprawling island, while the main level flows to a protected Trex deck-positioned perfectly to shade you from the hot evening sun. The fully finished walk-out lower level is smartly optimized for 3 distinct uses: a private guest suite, a dedicated work-from-home office, and a separate fitness/yoga area. No detail has been spared on high-value, big-ticket upgrades that dramatically reduce your monthly spend and eliminate future hassle: an efficient, owned ~8 kW solar array, newer roof, HVAC, septic, thermal windows, new insulation, and a new driveway with an EV charger. Outside, enjoy supreme peace of mind. The home is fully hardened against fire with a Wildfire Partners Certification, fire-resistant metal detailing, and non-combustible fencing and decking. The aesthetics are stunning and consistent, featuring new hardwood floors, a floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace, beautifully remodeled bathrooms, and a garage with a built-in workbench. Located in the highly-rated St. Vrain Valley School District and just 2 minutes from The Greenbriar Inn, this "Mountain Lite" retreat provides a serene, turnkey lifestyle with nothing left to do but to move in and enjoy. Whether you're exploring nearby trails, entertaining under the stars, or simply enjoying the city lights from your private hillside retreat, this exceptional property offers a rare blend of natural beauty, modern comfort, and cost-saving efficiency. Come home to the Colorado lifestyle you've been dreaming about!
