Description
Experience the pinnacle of Boulder living in this sun-drenched Victorian sanctuary, perfectly positioned on an expansive 0.22-acre lot in the heart of iconic Mapleton Hill. Tucked behind a lush canopy of mature trees, this residence offers a rare sense of seclusion and scale just steps from the Mt. Sanitas trailhead and the world-class dining of Pearl Street. The main home radiates historic charm, featuring soaring ceilings and oversized windows that bathe the multiple living areas in natural light. The south-facing sunroom is a morning highlight, providing a serene space to sip coffee while overlooking the grounds. With 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, the current layout is both comfortable and gracious, yet the deep lot offers an incredible canvas for those looking to reimagine the space with a primary main-level suite or a high-end modern addition. Adding to the property's exceptional value is a detached 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom guest house. Complete with its own private patio and an active rental license, this versatile space is perfect for an income-producing long-term rental, a high-end home office, or a private retreat for visiting guests. Rarely do you find a Mapleton Hill property that combines a private driveway, a massive backyard, and an additional legal dwelling unit. Whether you’re walking to a neighborhood cafe, hitting the trails, or exploring the vibrant downtown core, this is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to own a piece of Boulder’s most storied neighborhood.

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWhittier International Elementary School has been an incredible experience for our family. We truly appreciate the school’s diversity and strong emphasis on cultural awareness, which creates an inclusive and enriching environment for students. The IB program’s inquiry-based approach encourages curiosity and helps develop lifelong learners. Every teacher and staff member is outstanding—dedicated, supportive, and exactly the kind of people you want guiding your children. We’ve also been very impressed with the school’s quick academic intervention when needed and the overall welcoming, supportive community. We couldn’t be happier with our experience here.Parent Review1mo ago
