It’s about the warmth woven throughout these walls, through these rooms and throughout the private outdoor living space which reminds you that you’re home and that Everything’s Right.

This home was designed to integrate warm aesthetic with cool function. Big rooms and lovely light with natural finishes like Telluride stone exterior, alder trim, hickory floors, stone fireplaces and access to the outdoors make up the uniqueness that’s hard to replicate today. What’s trending? We are - with warm, traditional yet contemporary lines with one of the most functional floor plans you'll experience. And where strength and durability prevail. 

The essence of the home may well be the chef’s kitchen with intentional and supremely functional design, high ceilings, and custom finishes. This kitchen will entertain forever, with an eat-in dining room, a full island, a scullery, walk-in pantry, tall custom cabinets and drawers, granite countertops, double oven multi-burner gas range, large windows and access to the back patio for year-round grilling. It’s a community space for sharing moments around food with friends and family. Appreciate the dining room, living room and a private office with tall glass doors. On this main floor there is also a bedroom, a three-quarter bathroom, laundry, a powder room, a living room with vaulted ceilings and a stone living room fireplace to warm up to on these cool winter days.

Upstairs, the primary bedroom has a private 5-piece bath, a walk-in closet, a fireplace and a balcony with clear, unobstructed views of the fabled Flatirons. Two other large bedrooms on the opposite side share a full bathroom.

The lower level walkout is a wonderful space with a family room, a large library, a wet-bar, another bedroom for guests with en suite bathroom and a large storage room for your gear or to convert to another living space.

Sip morning coffee from the covered front porch and take in the gorgeous views as hikers pass by to ascend to greater elevation on area trails. Nestled near the base of the Flatirons and Historic Chautauqua Park, this location boasts incredible convenience to downtown Boulder, CU, Denver, DIA and a vast network of open space trails. Lower Chautauqua is considered one of the most coveted neighborhoods in Boulder, with large lots, good schools, classic and modern home styles and a strong sense of community. Your home search has finally been rewarded.
