About This Home
As of October 2023This property tells a extraordinary story, and you've just turned the page to your chapter... Fondly referred to as the ‘Boulder Cabin,’ after the namesake Boulder(s) BOTH dwellings surround. A remarkable property enveloped in the wooded hillside of Mount Helix in Villa Caro Heights. Truly a ‘best kept secret’ neighborhood, rich in history and rustic charm. The main house, an alluring mid-century/craftsmen fusion. 3 bedroom/2bath with an optional 4th bedroom, media room/living space on the lower level. The entire home adorned with custom/original finishes and textures; coffered and vaulted ceilings, spiral stairs, custom lattice, original slate and wood floors, redwood tongue/groove paneling and ceilings, original windows and stained glass… A delightful retro Kitchen at the heart of the home. Each space captivating and timelessly beautiful. The 2nd dwelling 'The Nest' is a 500sf (permitted) Studio perched atop the garage, among the tree tops. The ideal guest quarters, rental OR space to expand upon… Completely independent living and currently used as a vacation and month to month rental. Either option in high demand and proven to draw in a very healthy income. Both dwellings equipped with new HVAC, new ducting in the main house, updated electrical panels and the entire property powered by newly installed OWNED solar! A sound investment and the ultimate combination of functionality, vintage flair, custom design and pure enjoyment. A vibe like none other, this beloved 'Boulder Cabin' evokes a passion for home!
