At the heart of this rocky paradise sits a family-run flagstone quarry, a testament to the land's rich geological heritage. This 9-acre permitted area is not just a quarry; it's a sculptor's dream, with three distinct pits carved into the earth like colossal amphitheaters.

With a Boulder County Letter of Buildability in hand, these 20 acres are a blank slate for your dreams-a place to reconnect with the raw beauty of nature. Access to this slice of heaven is via Stone Canyon Dr., a winding path that seems to leave the worries of the world behind with each turn.
