This 17-acre parcel in Lower Boulder is a unique blend of pasture land on one side, and on the other side, pinion & juniper with the creamy white, sandstone Durfey Mesa rising above it. In the center between the two, is a tastefully, quality-constructed, 1460 square foot home. The wide, wrap-around deck provides wonderful outdoor living space. Inside, 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, walnut floors, solid, pretty wood doors, and a very comfortable, window-filled great room give the home a feeling of very pleasant livability. Surrounding the home is an amazing array of native plants and bushes, along with grapevines, flowers, and a pretty mix of cottonwood and juniper trees. A complete list of all trees and plants growing on the property is listed under Details. See also a list of birds that visit the property.

The 6 irrigated acres have 7 A shares of valuable Boulder Irrigation Company water.  The irrigation system is pressurized and all irrigation equipment is included. A well-built, 1260 square foot barn with water and electricity is on the edge of the field. The barn, with a covered run-in, is unfinished with a dirt floor, except for two shop/storage rooms with windows, doors and concrete floors. There is also a second story under the gabled section of the roof. Included with the property is a 2009 Kubota 52 with 215 hours, and all the implements.

Access is from a private road that only 2 other neighbors use. The iconic, massive Sugarloaf sandstone structure is in full view to the north. The contrast of green field, blue sky and white Navajo Sandstone is a stunning, classic Boulder scene. To the east, the pinion and juniper landscape next to Durfey Mesa is a constant reminder of the magnificence of Boulder’s unique geology.

The entire property is in excellent condition; the buildings have all been cared for and maintained. The trees and plants are all healthy and the lovely green pasture has been regularly irrigated. There is a beautiful sense of space and peace that complements the landscape completely.
