Highlights: Your home search just ended! The Boulder Lifestyle you’ve been waiting for is here at 200 Fair Place in Lower Chautauqua.

It’s as close to a relationship with your home as you might ever feel. It’s about feeling the soul that resonates through these walls, through these rooms and throughout the private outdoor living space which reminds you that you’re home and that everything is all right.

When they talk about location, this is what they envision. The forethought, that the original architect had, centered around a large cottonwood tree on the south side of the property. The design and form started with this tree, and while the tree is no longer there, the fact that the home grew around this tree is evident.

This home was designed to be integrated with nature. The design uses not only the tree, but the cascading creek which defines it eastern edge. The south facing backyard living space is like no other. A sense of quiet and privacy emanates from every corner of the 14,000 square-foot yard, with flower gardens and pathways. In addition, there is a side yard with storage and a large dog-run with a dog house. Let the babbling Skunk Creek take you to another place and time, and listen to the bees, the songbirds, and the wind through the trees—it’s music.

The materials used to build this home even coincide with nature, where stonework, wood beams, and other mid-century materials make up the unique design, and where strength and durability reign. You know this home was built well—we’ll show you.

If the home has a soul, then the chef’s kitchen may well be the heart of this home, with intentional and supremely functional design, vaulted ceilings, and custom finishes, this kitchen will entertain forever. It has tall custom maple cabinets and drawers, soapstone countertops, and island and bar with swing-out bar stools, a study nook and eat-in kitchen area with gorgeous windows, flagstone floors, and plenty of storage. It’s a community space for sharing moments around food with friends and family.

The formal living room and dining room have vaulted ceilings, a flagstone gas fireplace, and views of the Flatirons that will take your breath away. The whole south wall of the room is windows which frame the back yard space, accessible by large sliding doors.

It’s just a few steps up the custom flagstone staircase to the east wing of the house where four bedrooms reside including a main bedroom cantilevered over the babbling creek below. Have breakfast/coffee on the custom deck off of the primary bedroom overlooking the lush green yard. The art-deco bathrooms are the most colorful with custom tile work and a splash of pastel that will put a smile on your face.

The fully renovated lower level walkout has a separate entrance, and is a wonderful getaway for quiet time after a busy day. It has its own gas fireplace, twin sliding doors accessing the lower back patio, and a separate office, a kitchenette, and a modern bathroom.
When they talk about relationships, this home was built for it. It is a home that understands and responds to improvements and updates. It’s listening.
To give is to get, and this home gives. There’s a soul that resonates, just ask the owners of the last 28 wonderful years, and you’ll know. Welcome to 200 Fair Place - it’s the sigma oasis - you’re already there!
