Gorgeous contemporary two-story Carl Rhode designed custom home nestled at the end of a private cul-de-sac on what is arguably the best lot in Waterford Subdivision! A rare quiet and serene location surrounded on two sides by Boulder Couty Open Space, a lush creek, the Niwot Loop Trail System and boasting panoramic views of the Colorado Front Range! The main level is crafted for effortless entertaining. A beautifully updated chef's kitchen features a massive center island, gourmet appliances, quartz countertops, beverage refrigerator, wine refrigerator, and a walk-in pantry-all seamlessly connected to the expansive dining room and family room. Built-ins, an art-niche display wall, and a buff sandstone fireplace create warmth and sophistication, complemented by gleaming refinished walnut floors and large-format custom tile. A dramatic vaulted foyer opens to the formal living room with fireplace and custom walnut cabinetry, then flows to the main-floor study with a 3/4 bath, laundry room, and mudroom. Upstairs, four spacious bedrooms anchor the level, including an exceptional primary suite with its own fireplace, private west-facing balcony, huge walk-in closet, and a superb contemporary 5-piece bath featuring a walk-in glass shower, large soaking tub, and dual vanities. The daylight lower level offers a recreation room, theater room, and a private guest suite-ideal for visitors or multi-generational living. Outdoor living shines with an expansive partially covered deck overlooking the professionally landscaped yard, complete with raised garden beds, basketball court area, and an impressive multi-level waterfall feature. The oversized 3-car garage provides abundant space for vehicles, gear, and toys. Other features include a security system, central vacuum system, multiple zone heating and cooling, and a 5.52 owned solar PV system!
