Experience a tasteful, quality remodel of a charming historic cottage on one of the most magical lots on Mapleton Hill. Backing up to a seasonal Farmers Ditch, this nearly 9000 SF lot  has a gently sloping green grass lawn and no house across the alley - only the gardens of the estate at 700 Highland. Plans for a modest 1100 SF addition to double the size of the existing home include removing the non-historic addition in the back and replacing it with roughly 1600 SF addition on two levels, creating a modern open floor plan on the main level with kitchen, living and dining accessing the back patio & expansive back yard through a wall of Nano glass doors and, on the upper level, a Primary suite + two additional bedrooms & bathroom with amazing views. The current cottage is move-in ready, luxuriously appointed with oak hardwood floors, spacious kitchen, AGA stove, high efficiency mini-splits for cooling & heating, along with the historic features of tall ceilings, two gracious porches and spaces bathed in light through abundant tall windows. The expansive lawn & gardens, Flatiron views, accompanied by the sound of gurgling water in the seasonal ditch, make for an idyllic outdoor experience. Who needs a downtown condo when one can enjoy lock/leave living from this bucolic and peaceful location on one of the best streets in coveted Mapleton Hill, the most revered neighborhood in Boulder due to its majestic architecture, mature trees, friendly neighbors and easy access to acres of open space and trails, including Sanitas Mountain & Settler's Rock. Nearby Pearl Street and Boulder's vibrant downtown offer countless options for award-winning restaurants, curated shops and a fun art, music and culture scene, to mention excellent events at CU Boulder. Contemplate how fortunate you are while sitting on the porch swing, taking in all the beauty and the incredible lifestyle at your doorstep.
