Description
Privacy, amazing light, generous sized rooms, and quality construction make this home sing! Quietly commanding one of the most private positions in an ultra-exclusive North Boulder enclave of just four homes, the residence is 7,500+ square feet of architectural seduction. Designed by award-winning architect David Waugh with interiors by the celebrated Mickey Ackerman, every room in this residence was crafted to stop you in your tracks. A dramatic double-height foyer greets you with a sweeping wood staircase, walls of glass, and the kind of presence that makes you exhale the moment you walk in - bold, warm, and unmistakably refined. Sun-drenched living spaces unfold with effortless rhythm, drawing you into the expansive kitchen anchored by a huge island, custom cabinetry, and a curated selection of premium appliances. Explore the elegant dining and living areas that pour out onto a covered stone patio made for long evenings and memorable gatherings. Then there's the showstopper - a dedicated bonus wing perched above the garage with floor-to-ceiling built-ins, rich hardwood floors, and an atmosphere that flat-out refuses to let you leave. Envision it as a private library, media room, a kids' play area, a creative studio - whatever your heart desires! There is absolutely nothing else like this stunning space anywhere on the market. Upstairs, four en-suite bedrooms deliver resort-level privacy, anchored by a primary suite that doesn't just retreat - it transcends! Soaring ceilings, a fireplace, a lounge area, and a stunning south-facing balcony that practically demands you welcome the day here with morning coffee. The lower level keeps the energy alive with a media lounge, wet bar, fitness space, guest suite, and all the storage you've always wanted. All of this, and only minutes from Pearl Street, hiking trails, Boulder's best markets, and top-tier schools. This is a rare address where absolute privacy and effortless access don't just coexist - they thrive together.
