Set on 2.5 private, wooded acres midway between Nederland and Boulder, this 4-bedroom, 2, 992-square-foot home offers true Colorado mountain living, with moose, elk, wild turkey, and owls as regular visitors. From the front, the home presents as a single-level ranch, but the sloped lot reveals a full walkout lower level with large windows bringing natural light into every room on both floors. A large wood deck on main level overlooks the forested acreage below, perfect for morning coffee and wildlife watching. Inside, the craftsmanship stands out: solid oak flooring throughout, with the main floor newly refinished; a layered lighting design with extensive recessed, under-cabinet, and cove lighting, a lit alcove, and lighted interior stairs; arched entryways; and extensive contemporary tile work, with corrugated metal accent walls adding a touch of mountain-modern character. The kitchen, updated with a new induction range, new dishwasher, and newer refrigerator, opens to the dining and living rooms. In the dining room, a built-in wet bar with a shimmering amber glass mosaic backsplash, lighted glass-front display cabinets, a solid-surface countertop, and a sculptural red sink makes entertaining elegant. Two of the four bedrooms are suites with private baths, one a 5-piece bath and the other a 3/4 bath with a large walk-in shower, ideal for long-term guests or extended stays. Upgrades include a new roof, new tankless water heaters, and a new Culligan water softener with whole-house filtration. The low-maintenance stucco exterior, with a stone facade wrapping the entire home, is built to handle mountain weather. Location is a highlight: about 20 minutes to Nederland’s shops, restaurants, trailheads, and nearby Eldora skiing, and about 20 minutes to everything Boulder offers. Private, well-built, and move-in ready.
