$975,000 | August 2015
One of Boulder’s best kept secrets is the close-in mountain community of Pine Brook Hills: surrounded by nature and a neighborly community, close to miles of hiking trails, yet conveniently located minutes to town. What is rare is to find such a stylish and beautifully updated home in this most coveted neighborhood.
The main floor offers a well designed open floor plan and a clean, sophisticated look in a palette of fresh white walls with gleaming dark wood floors creating a space that is at once lofty and comfortable, with ample spaces for gathering, that flow from one to another, incorporating the outdoors.
The double-door main entry opens into a lovely foyer, leading to a large, open chefs kitchen featuring contemporary white shaker-style cabinetry, granite counters on the center island, soap stone counters around the perimeter, and professional cooktop. The large central island serves as an ideal focal point and gathering space in the kitchen and is very functional for cooking and entertaining, flowing into a wooden eat-in kitchen table. The kitchen faces South out to the deck and views. On one side of the kitchen is the dining area, featuring soaring ceilings and sliding doors that open to the deck. And on the opposite side of the kitchen is the inviting great room, also featuring vaulted ceilings and access to the outdoors, with tons of natural light, a gas fireplace set in a distinctive stacked stonewall surround and numerous skylights.
The walk out lower level boasts 5 bedrooms, all with easy access to the outdoors. The oversized master suite features two closets and a nicely appointed master bathroom with shower and soaking tub. Three other bedrooms offer comfortable space and great light, and share two full bathrooms. The fourth bedroom on the lower level can also function as a yoga room, gym, or studio.
This home features Solar PV on the roof, as well as solar hot water. Energy efficient features, hot water baseboard heat, and abundant natural light create comfortable temperatures year round with an Evaporative Cooler providing cooling in warmer months.
The current owners have made significant improvements on the exterior of the home, including a Zen-like rock garden at the entry of the home and recently painted decking. The two-car garage offers terrific storage and is easily accessed from the home.
This home is located only 5 minutes west of Broadway, and offers easy access to hiking, biking, and endless trails, while also being conveniently located just a few minutes from North Boulder amenities, including Foothill Elementary, Ideal Market, North Boulder Park, North Boulder Rec Center and the Wonderland Lake area. Children who attend Foothill Elementary are picked up in Pine Brook Hills by the school bus.
All in all, this is a beautiful, comfortable property with a light-filled, lofty style, offering the peace and quiet of close-in mountain living, and the conveniences of North Boulder.
