Only minutes to Boulder and set against a Colorado backdrop of the Indian Peaks and the snowcapped Continental Divide, this special property is protected by hundreds of acres of Boulder County open space and is surrounded by old growth trees. The property is set up for horses, with a 1.5-acre, sub-irrigated pasture in addition to the 1.25 lot that the home sits on. A quality barn has two stalls with paddocks, auto-waterers, a tack room, and a 18X25 ft heated wood-working shop. This craftsman style home feels spacious and inviting, with an open floorplan, stacked stone fireplaces, large formal dining, and a substantial study/ home office. The living spaces are light and bright with 9 ft ceilings. A well-loved country kitchen with high ceilings and large skylights is at the heart of this beautiful home. Light and bright, it has radiant-heated tile flooring which flows into a roomy eat-in area connecting to the back patio. A pleasure to cook in, it's perfect for entertaining with plenty of counter space, a large center island, granite counters, and backsplash tiles that have raised country murals. Along with custom, handmade cabinets it features Bosch, Thermador, and Sub-Zero appliances. At the top of a wide, open stairway, the primary bedroom suite has vaulted ceilings, a large south-facing balcony from which to enjoy the parklike setting, and a custom stacked stone fireplace framed in cedar. Two more bedrooms, each with its own full bath, complete the upper level. A carriage house over the garage makes a wonderful flex-space. It is over 600 sq ft, is plumbed with a work-sink, and has good potential to add a bath. It is accessed from inside the home through a hallway leading from the kitchen but also has a separate entrance at the bottom of the stairs. With classic architectural style, this upscale craftsman farmhouse is a must see. Don't miss it!
