Tucked away on a serene acre at the end of a private cul-de-sac, 1193 Old Tale Road is a rare sanctuary where timeless mid-century design meets Boulder's most breathtaking natural landscapes. Backing directly onto Flatirons Golf Course, the home offers panoramic views of the Flatirons and Continental Divide-an ever-changing canvas of glowing sunsets, snow-dusted peaks, and mountain majesty. A warm brick-and-wood facade is framed by vibrant landscaping, setting the tone for the home's refined yet welcoming style. Inside, soaring vaulted ceilings, tongue-and-groove details, and rich hardwood floors anchor a dramatic great room that balances mid-century character with modern livability. Designed for both lively entertaining and quiet retreat, the home flows seamlessly into its surroundings. The primary suite is a true haven, offering serene views, skylights, an attached en-suite, and direct access to the tranquil backyard. With four bedrooms and dual offices or flex spaces, this ranch-style floor plan delivers both comfort and versatility-perfect for main-floor living and today's lifestyle. Modern and thoughtful features, such as extensive owned solar panels and an EV hookup, offer eco-conscious living without compromise. Outdoors, the property transforms into a lush retreat. Expansive grounds, sustained by private irrigation well rights, create a green, inviting setting all summer long and provide a natural haven for local wildlife. For the adventurous spirit, immediate access to the South Boulder Creek Trail and nearby open space puts miles of hiking and biking just steps from your door. This is more than a home-it's a rare Boulder retreat where timeless architecture, natural beauty, and everyday convenience converge.
