Property Description
Built in 1904, this home has been lovingly renovated using an artful combination of antique & reclaimed materials in unique & thoughtful ways. Environmentally sound & chemical free enhancements were chosen to create this serene haven, right in the heart of Boulder. Elevated from the street & backing to Mattie Dean Garden & the historic Columbia Cemetery for fabulous unobstructed Flatiron Views year-round & the magical feel of living amongst nature in an eco-oasis. If you're feeling spry, make sure you climb up the amazing treehouse and enjoy the views from 2 and 3 stories up. Built with reclaimed barn wood and stained glass windows, it is independently constructed so as not to interfere with the health of the tree. This prized location is within strolling distance to Alpine Modern for coffee, CU Campus for CU Buff home games and other popular events, Chautauqua Park for a hike or a show, and Foothill trails are only a quarter mile away. Stroll past Boulder Creek to Boulder's acclaimed Pearl St Mall for dining, shopping & entertainment and you'll be well positioned for enjoying the Sundance Film Festival. Gorgeous hardwood floors, lovely stained glass, transom and bay windows, restored woodwork, brass antique lighting, fixtures and hardware all add to the warmth & character. Natural light flows through numerous windows from the outdoors and also through cleverly placed art and stained glass between rooms & levels. There is so much to take in when touring this property, allow yourself adequate time as this is truly a one of a kind home in THE ideal location for living the quintessential Boulder lifestyle!
