12.3 ACRES ABUTTING PRIVATE LAKE ONLY 4 MILES FROM THE PEARL ST. MALL! This one-of-a-kind parcel is the only one on the east side of a private lake and has unobstructed views of the foothills, Indian Peaks, Boulder's Flatirons and even the very top of Mt. Meeker/Longs Peak! The .3 mile long driveway leads to the site of the existing house that's optimally sited for privacy and views. The Rural Residential zoning allows for a variety of uses including horses (and other animals), barns, corrals and some businesses. There are no covenants or HOA. The house is 45 years old and is sold "as is" - it is ready to be refurbished, reinvented or to possibly be replaced by a new home. It incorporates numerous solar elements (2X6 walls, 2 two-story tall corner trombe walls made of concrete and a sunroom designed to capture winter sun). The very livable plan has features reminiscent of a different era: tall ceilings, large rooms and wide stairways and hallways. Here's your chance to create exactly the home you desire on a unique acreage instead of someone else's idea of it. The NORTH PROPERTY LINE IS THE CITY LIMITS OF BOULDER - leaving open the possibility of annexation and development years in the future. RTD service along Jay Rd. and well used bike/runner/pedestrian lanes connect to the Boulder area's extensive bike trails system!
