About This Home
A striking blend of sustainability and sophistication; this home, designed by Annette and Dennis Martin in 2023, is tucked on a quiet cul-de-sac off one of Boulder's most coveted streets.

Entertain indoors or out with a chef's kitchen featuring Gaggenau and Sub-Zero appliances, a built-in Sedona grill, and a 10'x38' year-round saltwater pool.
