A Rare Boulder Gem — Fully Renovated Stone Cottage in Boulder’s Most Walkable Neighborhood
Boulder is full of great homes. Some have character. Some have location. This architect-renovated 1930 stone cottage in Boulder’s most walkable neighborhood... has both.

How walkable? Less than five minutes away on foot are: Whole Foods, Natural Grocers, Trader Joe’s, Target, the YMCA, Google offices, urgent care, the shops along 28th street, Whittier Elementary with its IB program, and much more. Even Pearl Street is only half a mile away! Young families, professionals, and anyone who moved to Boulder to actually live here, this is the house you’ve been waiting for.

Inside, white oak floors tie together spaces that each have their own distinct character. The living room features an original fireplace crowned by a handcrafted mosaic — thousands of pennies arranged into a striking art piece that anchors the room. Through an original arch lies the dining room, where a tongue-and-groove aspen wood ceiling with an integrated air return transforms an everyday space into something memorable.

The light filled kitchen rewards those who cook as well as those who don’t. Handmade turquoise tile backsplash, quartz countertops, a professional range hood, and a custom spice drawer reflect the kind of thoughtful details that distinguish an architect’s renovation from a standard flip. The original decorative glass window in the back door is the chef’s kiss.

The bathroom is a genuine surprise — jade green floor-to-ceiling tile, a floating walnut vanity with stone countertop, matte black fixtures, and sculptural tile wainscoting together feel far more boutique hotel than residential. The Flatirons are visible from the shower, because of course they are.

Three bedrooms each offer large windows, ceiling fans, and generous closets. One is a sunroom that features a corner full of windows and more views of the Flatirons. Will you use it as a bedroom, home office, or yoga studio? Stacked laundry with mahogany shelving keep the practical details just as refined.

The backyard is enclosed and made for real use. A mature apple tree produces the sweet, crisp kind worth waiting for each fall and shades the patio and lawn, and a large raised garden bed is ready to grow your veggies. A detached workshop garage and two off-alley parking spaces round out the property, along with a secure parcel delivery box that ensures your deliveries don’t disappear. Spring will see xeriscaping added to the front and side yards.

Nestled into a flower bed under mature shade trees, this home offers the best of Boulder living in a package that is as thoughtful as it is beautiful. Schedule a viewing now — homes like this don’t last long in the heart of Boulder. Read More
