About This Home

As of May 2026

Tucked within the intimate Silver Spruce community along Boulder Canyon, this charming cottage-style home offers a blend of privacy, natural beauty, & everyday convenience - feeling worlds away, yet just minutes from Pearl Street. Surrounded by mountain landscape, the setting feels peaceful & distinctly Colorado, w/ a sense of calm that is increasingly hard to find. Perched above Boulder Creek, thoughtfully updated & rich w/ character, the home blends rustic charm w/ meaningful improvements designed for comfortable living. Vaulted ceilings & expansive windows fill the open living area w/ natural light, creating a bright, airy sense of space while framing the surrounding natural beauty. Thoughtful value-added improvements enhance both livability & peace of mind, including new windows, refinished flooring, interior paint, recessed lighting, custom blinds, a tankless water heater, updated electrical panel, and new asphalt roof. Outdoor living becomes a natural extension of the home w/ a fenced yard, covered porch, & creekside patio perched above Boulder Creek-creating a private retreat for relaxing, entertaining, or simply enjoying the calming soundtrack of the canyon. A separate studio shed w/ electricity adds flexibility for an office, gym, studio, or guest suite. Nestled within a peaceful enclave of just 11 homes, Silver Spruce offers a uniquely connected mountain lifestyle. Residents enjoy shared creek access, a private park, & use of a historic one-room schoolhouse for gatherings & community events. The Cottage Association provides trash service, snow removal, common area & road maintenance, and a shared community well. For outdoor enthusiasts, the location is exceptional-just minutes to Betasso Preserve, Boulder Canyon recreation, climbing routes, hiking & biking trails, and the multi-use path into Boulder. Whether seeking mountain serenity, outdoor adventure, or easy access to downtown Boulder, this home offers a lifestyle that feels both peaceful & connected.
