If a million dollar view is on your wish list, this one delivers. Hidden Lake stretches out below with forest and mountain peaks beyond, creating one of the most spectacular panoramas along the Peak to Peak. Water, mountains and changing Colorado skies become part of everyday life here. Soaring windows bring the view inside and fill the main living area with natural light. Warm wood accents and a gas fireplace add mountain character, while the kitchen and dining areas flow easily for everyday living and gatherings. Originally featured in the Daily Camera during construction, the home was built using Structural Insulated Panels, known as SIPs, for a well-insulated exterior envelope. But fair warning, the deck may quickly become your favorite room in the house. Morning coffee, wildlife watching, sunset cocktails and doing absolutely nothing are all considerably better with this backdrop. Residents enjoy access to private Hidden Lake for fishing, boating and swimming. The flexible floor plan provides plenty of room for full-time living, weekend escapes, guests and working from home. Substantial improvements include Andersen doors and windows, newer flooring, updated kitchen appliances and sink, newer water heater, remodeled lower-level shower, exterior paint and stain, plus extensive land and wildfire mitigation. The driveway was also rebuilt to reduce its grade, a practical improvement mountain buyers will appreciate. Outdoor adventure is close in every direction with Hidden Lake, Brainard Lake, Indian Peaks Wilderness and miles of hiking, biking, snowshoeing and exploring nearby. Boulder is an easy trip down the mountain, yet home feels worlds away. The pictures are beautiful. The view in person is even better.
