This gorgeous property north of Boulder offers all the quiet serenity and privacy of living in the foothills while still providing an easy 6-minute drive to Broadway and 15-20 minutes to downtown Boulder. The split-level ranch home and large, 2-car detached garage are situated on a 5-acre parcel that also includes a loafing shed, fenced paddock area, and 8x12 storage shed for those that wish to keep horses. There is a private trail leading to the top of the property; in addition, one end of the Joder Ranch trail (open to hikers, bikers, dogs, and horses) is less than a mile away. Birds and wildlife are abundant; a list of species seen regularly is available. A large, fenced vegetable garden and many flower gardens surrounding the house add to the beauty provided by nature. The home features rustic cedar siding, a large, low-maintenance deck for entertaining, and a smaller private deck off the primary bedroom. Since the two decks are on opposite sides of the house, there is always a spot that offers the right combination of sun, shade, and tranquility! Inside, the home includes the following: Three bedrooms (one currently used as an office) and a full bath on the top floor. The primary bedroom has a private deck with views of nothing but grass, trees and the occasional deer or fox. The main floor has new flooring, fully remodeled kitchen with granite countertops and new cabinets, dining room, sitting area, and large windows all around. The garden-level floor includes a family room with stone fireplace, guest bedroom, and a 3/4 bath. The lowest level has ample storage space, laundry room, far-infrared sauna, and an open room currently set up as an exercise room. Water supplied by Olde Stage Water District is high quality, but the home also includes both a water softener and a reverse-osmosis filtration system for added protection. Septic system features 2 fields and is in good working order. Visit soon to fully appreciate all that this property has to offer!
