Public Remarks: Welcome to 860 Poorman Rd, a hidden gem of a property in Boulder, Colorado! On the market for the first time in over 70 years, this charming 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom cabin sits on 24 sprawling acres and boasts stunning views of the Rocky Mountains' famous Continental Divide. With plenty of room to roam, this lot is a blank slate with endless possibilities. Imagine creating your own private homestead, complete with gardens, chickens, or other farm animals, all while being only 10 minutes away from downtown Boulder. Inside, the cabin has been lovingly cared for and maintained over the years. The layout is cozy and functional, with an open living and dining area, an antique wood-burning stove, and large windows that provide plenty of natural light and gorgeous views of the surrounding landscape. The kitchen is efficient and practical, with all the necessary appliances and plenty of storage space. The bedrooms are comfortable and well-sized for the era they were built, custom built in closets are in both bedrooms. The 24 sprawling acres are the diamond of the property! The lot is mostly flat and sunny, with plenty of room for outdoor activities like hiking, gardening, and more. This property is truly a unique opportunity to own a piece of Boulder's mountain paradise!
