Santa Fe soul, Sugarloaf Mountain views, and Boulder just 15 minutes away. This custom-designed, custom-built Santa Fe-style retreat sits on 4.47 private acres, facing south to soak up the sun on even the coldest January mornings, with mountain views in every direction.Inside, 3,169 square feet of open, ranch-style living showcases the craftsmanship. Vaulted ceilings and exposed wooden beams rise above a living area warmed by a wood-burning stove. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame the surrounding peaks, while passive solar design lets the brick floors and thick masonry walls collect the day's sunshine and hold it long after dark. The kitchen pairs granite countertops with natural cherry cabinetry. The primary bedroom and its en-suite bath each have their own kiva fireplace.Outside, a private oasis unfolds: perennial gardens, fruit trees, garden beds, a seasonal stream in your very own cottonwood grove, and a koi pond, all supported by an abundant well. Whether you dream of growing your own food or lingering with coffee among the blooms, the land is ready for it. Energy independence is already in place, with a new 11.4 kW Tesla solar system and a 40 kWh Tesla Powerwall setup - this home never lost power during the outages last year. A low-maintenance tile and metal roof and a decorative concrete block driveway complete a home that is as practical as it is enchanting. A two-car garage plus spacious workshop keeps the vehicles and the gear sheltered.Mountain living without the hassle: a county-maintained, plowed road means winter mornings don't derail your plans, and the restaurants, shops, and trailheads of Boulder are a quick 15-minute drive down the hill.
