Available for only the third time since 1973, this meticulously finished cottage in Chautauqua Park holds nearly 100 years of history in its walls yet is refined, offering a rustic sophistication that is irresistible. Greet and be greeted by passers by from the front porch, many of whom rent the same cottages on the same weeks year after year and are part of the community. Inside, let the extensive artisan cabinetry and custom millwork, chef’s kitchen that opens to a private flagstone deck, handmade clay tile flooring and natural stone fireplace provide space for entertaining and restoration. The substantial primary suite offers a five-piece bathroom with walk-in closet for a relaxing close to busy days outside, while the landscaping is fully irrigated and designed to be low-maintenance for spending time away. The cottage is steps from the General Store cafe’ and Chautauqua Dining Hall -widely acclaimed as the best brunch in town- while Chautauqua offers numerous classes and creative presentations for cultural enrichment. The auditorium, recently under refurbishment to accommodate screenings for the Sundance Film Festival, also hosts symphony, opera, and concerts ranging from singer-songwriters to reggae every summer. Living at the foot of the Flatirons is a succession of majestic sunrises, sunsets and cloud formations, looking out over the Boulder Valley with some of Colorado’s best hiking stretching for miles right outside your door, all within Chautauqua Park, your backyard.
