Unique designer details and superior craftsmanship run throughout this spacious four-bedroom, four and-a-half-bathroom contemporary residence featuring an open floor plan, jaw-dropping views, and wonderful natural light in North Boulder's sought-after Hillcrest neighborhood.
Beautifully designed and built by architect Cheri Belz, this 4,390-square-foot home impresses with vaulted fir ceilings, vertical grain bamboo floors, solid-core doors and designer lighting. All the oversized windows featuring high-quality window shades, and bathrooms are finished with an array of fine tile, including rusty slate, Mexican honey and nacho travertine. The gracious entry flows past a large coat closet to a handsome staircase featuring one-of-a-kind custom handrails wrought from castoffs from the historic Crockett Bit & Spur Company. Ahead, walls of windows frame gorgeous views throughout the expansive dining room and living room, where you'll find a cozy wood-burning fireplace. In the open kitchen, custom willow cabinetry, open shelving and Italian countertops surround stainless steel appliances, a convenient breakfast bar, and an oversized walk-in pantry with laundry room plumbing. Enjoy indoor-outdoor living and entertaining on the impressive Belz-designed rear deck, where a polycarbonate covering on a steel framework designed by Gebau Engineering in conjunction with Odom Construction welcomes all-season outdoor gatherings. From this north-facing perch, breathtaking treetop and mountain vistas seem to stretch on forever, while a spiral staircase connects to the sprawling patio below.
Past the living/dining room, you'll find a convenient home office graced with beautiful natural light and views and a chic powder room with a custom-designed sink by Dan Roman Studios. Ahead, more wonderful sunshine and lovely vistas fill the luxurious main-floor king-size primary bedroom — a serene retreat offering a walk-in closet and en-suite spa bathroom with a double vanity, soaking tub and separate shower. Ascend the staircase featuring a distinctive skylight and new carpeting to explore a private bedroom wing with a secondary suite and another bedroom with an adjacent full bathroom. A family room on this floor adds space for a media lounge or playroom alongside a shaded south-facing deck.
Head to the expansive lower level, which offers versatility as a media room, lounge, home office, and playroom with walls of built-in shelves ideal for stowing toys, books and office supplies. You'll find a fourth bedroom or studio, generous storage, a laundry room and a fourth full bathroom on this floor, while sliding glass doors open to the rear patio wrapped in evergreens. A separate stone staircase to the front of the home makes this space perfect for large-scale outdoor entertaining. Radiant heat and central air conditioning provide year-round comfort, while a two-car garage and wide driveway provide plenty of parking. In front, mature landscaping, towering trees and Crockett Bit & Spur panels add exceptional curb appeal to this beautiful Boulder home.
From this tree-lined Hillcrest enclave, you'll enjoy easy access to coffee shops, a pizzeria, a wine store, bakeries, Whole Foods, all within five minutes. Embrace Boulder's famous outdoor lifestyle at North Boulder Park, Rec Center and Mt. Sanitas trails within easy reach.
