Enjoy sun-kissed single-level living in this work-of-art Canterbury Acres 4BD/3.5BA showplace featuring dramatic views, impeccable craftsmanship and beautiful outdoor space abutting Flatirons Golf Course. Built in 2008, this meticulously updated abode impresses with tall beamed ceilings, Brazilian cherry wood floors, handsome millwork and oversized windows with automatic blinds. A custom-made entry door opens to a vaulted great room wrapped by a two-sided fireplace and unobstructed mountain vistas. Ahead, the dining area flows to a renovated open kitchen featuring a massive island, walk-in pantry, and new top-of-the-appliances by AGA, Miele and Gaggenau. Glass doors open to an inviting family room bordered by an exercise room and an updated wet bar. Luxurious accommodations include a renovated primary suite wing featuring an office/lounge with a patio, a vaulted king-size bedroom, a walk-in closet with a washer-dryer, and a new spa-inspired primary bath. There's a secondary bedroom and hall bath in this wing. Across the entry, a hallway winds past a powder room and laundry room to a separate wing with two more bedrooms and a full bath. Throughout the home, indoor-outdoor living is encouraged. A study warmed by the two-sided fireplace ushers you to a screened porch, while the dining room opens to a vast pergola patio overlooking raised garden beds, rolling lawns, and mature trees. Enjoy energy-efficient living with a 7kW PV solar system, a new solar thermal hot water system, updated zoned radiant floor heat, a new boiler, water heater, updated central air and high-efficiency windows. California Closets, a whole-house humidifier and a reverse-osmosis water purification system add comfort and convenience. A circular drive, motor court, and attached two-car garage with epoxy floors and EV charging provide plenty of parking. Enjoy proximity to East Boulder Rec Center, hike/bike paths, trails, and East Boulder amenities, with Downtown/Pearl Street just 10 minutes away.
