About this House

What's unique:Three fireplacesArtisan characterUltra-private mountain estateDetached courtyard buildingRadiant floor heat throughoutFenced dog run
The ultimate mountain home with unapparelled privacy and views! Set on 14 acres just 15 minutes up Flagstaff, this ultra-private mountain estate, affectionately known as 'Dreamer's Escape,' is a one-of-a-kind Colorado retreat offering extraordinary craftsmanship, panoramic views, and authentic mountain living within easy reach of Boulder. Sweeping 360 degree vistas extend across South Boulder, Green Mountain, the Continental Divide, and toward DIA, while the city lights create a magical backdrop after dark. Multiple balconies, decks, and outdoor gathering spaces invite everything from quiet mornings in nature to sunset dinners and evenings beneath the stars. Inside, the home is rich with artisan character, including Argentinian hand-carved doors throughout, antique walnut and mahogany windows, stained glass, slate and quartzite flooring, and wide-plank wood floors. Radiant floor heat throughout and three fireplaces make this a seriously cozy mountain home, while two generous primary suites offer plenty of flexibility. And for the wine lover, there's a custom cabinet with room for more than 1,400 bottles. A detached courtyard building includes a three-car garage, workshop, and an approximately 838-square-foot private guest studio, ideal for guests, a home office, yoga studio, a creative retreat, or whatever your heart desires! A fenced dog run adds convenience for four-legged family members. Don't miss this one-of-a-kind property offering privacy, soul, and a true sense of place -- seemingly worlds away, yet remarkably close to Boulder. LIVE BOLDER, LOVE BOULDER!

We live a convenient short distance to restaurants, grocery stores, schools, and shopping, ...friends hang out at our house and tell me I’m a great baker of Chocolate Chip Cookies! I love to send them home with cookies or fresh dough to bake cookies with their own families! You should bring your kids to our house on Halloween, what a treat! I walk to Pearl Street by way of Foothills Trail, through beautiful neighborhoods apple orchards, Mt. Sanitas and am fascinated by the rock formations. I bicycle many days a week and many miles, such a perfect location to start from and end up! It’s a family and friends tradition to do the Bolder Boulder on the Monday of Memorial Day weekend, so fun!
