Welcome home to 1420 Cherryvale Road, where timeless Mid-Century Modern design meets the Boulder lifestyle. Nestled on just under one acre, this beautifully maintained 1952 flagstone ranch offers endless possibilities—from an artist's retreat to a homesteader's dream. Enjoy the best of Boulder living with the Flatirons, Pearl Street, and the University of Colorado just minutes away. World-class hiking and biking trails are nearby, while Denver International Airport is less than an hour away. Inside, you'll find the craftsmanship of a bygone era with original hardwood floors, smooth lath-and-plaster walls, elegant coved ceilings, and abundant natural light. Modern updates include a new boiler and energy-efficient mini-split systems for year-round comfort. The original garage has been transformed into a private suite with a spacious den, wet bar, large closet, and separate entrance, making it ideal for a home office, guest suite, creative studio, or potential short-term rental. While located in Boulder County, the property has recently been connected to City of Boulder water and sewer services, providing the convenience of municipal utilities while maintaining a spacious country setting. A partial share of East Boulder Ditch water rights is also available for purchase. The expansive backyard, with separate access from the back, is ready for your vision, with room for extensive gardens, hobby farming, outdoor entertaining, or simply enjoying Colorado's natural beauty. A detached two-car garage with 220-volt power is perfect for projects or workshop space, and two additional storage sheds provide plenty of room for equipment and outdoor gear. Boulder County also allows the potential for an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU), subject to county approval, offering even more flexibility for future living or income opportunities. This is more than a home, it's an opportunity to create the Colorado lifestyle you've been dreaming of.
Cherryvale-Hoover Hills, located between Baseline Road and South Boulder Road, is a residential and foothills-edge Boulder neighborhood with curving streets and open-space views. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Baseline Road & Cherryvale Road junction, where trailheads, bike traffic, and a low-key commercial strip set an outdoors-forward rhythm. Nearby pillars include the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR), the CU South Boulder campus area, and the East Boulder Community Center. Housing leans toward mid-century ranches and updated split-levels with generous setbacks and mature trees. Greenbelts and paths stitch blocks to the South Boulder Creek corridor and the foothills. Daily life reads as quiet, active, and landscape-oriented.
