252 pine tree lane

Located just minutes from downtown Boulder, this stunning home delivers the rare combination of close-in convenience and serene foothills living. Sweeping mountain views, twinkling city lights, and Boulder's famous pink-sky sunrises and sunsets are your everyday backdrop, with floor-to-ceiling windows on all three levels bringing the scenery inside. Step out your door and onto the Lion's Lair trail up Mount Sanitas - or hop in the car and reach Ideal Market in about 12 minutes and Pearl Street in 15. New white oak flooring anchors the light-filled main level, where a wall of windows frames the panorama across an open flow of living room with fireplace, sitting area, dining space, and kitchen. The remodeled kitchen centers on a dramatic quartzite waterfall island and stainless steel appliances - a true gathering point for cooks and guests alike. A main-level bedroom and full bath add flexibility, while the office is tucked behind a maple barn door handcrafted by a local artisan. Outside, a brand-new wrap-around Trex deck extends the living space into an entertainer's dream: gas line, gas fire pit, gas grill, saltwater hot tub, and a fully fenced yard ready for everything from quiet evenings to lively get-togethers. Upstairs, the primary suite is a true retreat ... wake up to the views, then warm your feet on the heated floors of the beautifully updated bath. The walk-out lower level is built for fun: a spacious rec room with an entertainment center and full bar, additional bedrooms and a bath, and new luxury vinyl tile throughout. Behind the scenes, this home is dialed in: Mitsubishi A/C, Nest smart-home integration, Xfinity security, timed driveway lighting, an irrigation system, and a Flo by Moen water-monitoring system for added peace of mind. Recent upgrades include a new furnace, hot water heater, water softener, reverse osmosis filtration, fresh main-level insulation, and new electric sunshade blinds.
