Guest Access
Your experience includes complete, unfettered access to this 4,328-square-foot masterpiece, poised atop a two-acre mountain peak and yet low enough in elevation to remain comfortable and accessible. Your home commands truly mind-blowing vistas that range from sunrises over Boulder and Denver to the east, morning light beaming over the Flatirons, birds soaring across a pristine valley, and sunsets over the frequently snow-capped peaks of the Continental Divide. Approached via your own private driveway, this unparalleled location offers the rare luxury of being minutes from the heart of Boulder, close to the intellectual and athlete rigor of CU Boulder, and yet capturing that increasingly rare feeling of being entirely a world away. This property was formerly owned by the Beach Boys' producer and has hosted movie stars, world class musicians, pro athletes, Fortune 500 executives, artists, spiritual retreats, and many happy and loving families like ours that are seeking to get together, get away from it all, and still have privacy. It is a singular sanctuary, and quite simply, it is unique in Boulder.
