About This Home
Set amidst the breathtaking Boulder landscape, but only 6 minutes from coffee shops in North Boulder, this sustainable farm is more than just a home- it's a lifestyle. Spanning 6.5+ acres across two parcels, this thoughtfully developed homestead features a beautiful residence with endless views and an exceptional blend of utility and natural beauty. The modern farmhouse completed a renovation in 2025 and is paired with a stunning and versatile 50x25 ft barn. The barn has a climate-controlled portion currently used as a pottery studio and farm office, and sits on a 6" thick reinforced concrete slab lit by oversized industrial lights - perfect for everything from parties to late night projects. Whether you're an artist, woodworker, or aspiring farmer, this dynamic building provides a harmonious blend of work and leisure space. Built-in storage, custom cabinets, and bookcases crafted from wood on the property embody the ethos of living off the land while celebrating craftsmanship and sustainability. Out in the irrigated fields, enjoy over 50 mature trees, including 35 fruit-bearing varieties, all on ditch water delivered via a professionally-engineered, three-phase irrigation system that distributes water across the entire property. Beyond the gardens, orchard, and chicken coop, four improved and fully fenced horse paddocks offer electricity, water, swinging 16' gates, and a complete electric fencing system-ready for livestock or equestrian use. Native grasses and thoughtfully planted pines, aspens, and native trees add both beauty and privacy. A tranquil pond teems with wildlife, and with Lefthand Water ditch rights and a city tap, the property is well-equipped for sustainable living. Experience the perfect balance between a working hobby farm and a private rural retreat-where every detail has been designed to support a purposeful, inspired lifestyle.
