Executive Summary
Positioned on the sunny south-facing side of town in the desirable Sunnyside neighborhood of Nederland, Colorado, this thoughtfully maintained mountain home offers a comfortable balance of practicality, warmth, and mountain ambiance. Large south-facing windows capture abundant natural light throughout the day and heat the house on sunny winter days. Enjoy winter evenings soaking in the hot tub under the stars, instead of battling icy north-facing roads and lingering snowpack found in other neighborhoods. In summer, the surrounding aspen trees create a private outdoor setting with filtered light and a distinctly Colorado mountain feel while the skylight in the primary bedroom provides stargazing from your bed.
Built in 1995 and offering 2,348 square feet of living area, the home includes 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a finished walkout basement completed with permits, a permitted deck, a 2-car garage, paved blacktop driveway, and public water/sewer service through the Town of Nederland. Be fully prepared to stay warm with the Lopi wood stove on the main floor and the Vermont Castings gas stove in the basement, neither of which require electricity to run. The flexible lower-level layout provides the potential for a private studio or guest suite with the addition of a second entrance. Conveniently located a short 2 minutes from downtown Nederland, roughly a 10-minute walk, and about 30 minutes from Boulder, the property provides mountain living without sacrificing convenience.
