Public Remarks: This beautiful home, located two blocks north of Chautauqua Park on a spacious corner lot, is an 1897 "Wild West" interpretation of Colonial Revival Architecture. The same family has lived here and loved it, for almost 50 years. It is livable, as is, or remodel and update in one of Boulder's most attractive neighborhoods. Wood floors, many built-in cabinets and shelves, window seats, fabulous flagstone patio, and the basement offers perfect natural wine storage. A unique opportunity awaits!
