A gas fireplace anchors the living space, while a powder room and spacious laundry room complete the main level. Sliding doors open to a newly redone deck, extending the living space outdoors. Upstairs, the primary suite offers vaulted ceilings and abundant natural light. The en-suite bath includes a soaking tub, walk-in shower, dual vanities, and a private WC, complemented by a custom walk-in closet with a center island. A mini-split system enhances comfort in the primary suite, in addition to central air conditioning. An additional bedroom and full bathroom complete the upper level. The finished lower level includes a spacious family room with built-ins, a full bathroom, and two additional bedrooms. The outdoor setting defines the property—an inviting, private oasis within the city, with multiple areas for gathering and relaxation. A new deck, covered pergola, and a separate firepit area are set within a beautifully landscaped, usable yard with mature trees, a water feature, irrigated garden beds ideal for herbs, vegetables, or seasonal blooms, along with a chicken coop and shed. Recent improvements include a newer roof and the fully redone deck. Located minutes from Ideal Market, neighborhood shops, and dining, this home offers a rare combination of privacy, outdoor living, and walkability in one of Boulder’s most sought-after locations.
