This home has a south face in a quiet side canyon surrounded by towering 300-year-old trees & sheltered in a ponderosa pine savannah, where the creek and native plant species attract endless wildlife. Located 0.7 miles from the excellent Coal Creek K-8, the kids will enjoy the astroturf soccer/football field/baseball diamond, courtesy of the Canyon Park & Rec District. This property is within the coveted Ralston Valley High School district, and bus pick-up is at the end of the driveway. Enjoy the convenience of two restaurants, a coffee shop, spa businesses, a liquor store, and a convenience store that offers a US Post Office, gas, and groceries nearby. With easy access to Boulder, Golden, and Arvada, you'll still feel at the center of it all! If you work remotely, fiber optic high-speed internet is available. The home's main level was completely reconstructed, and the interior was remodeled in 2000. Passive solar, wood heat, and on/off-grid electricity contribute significantly to energy efficiency and sustainability; the solar panel system powers all utilities so that you will save money on utility costs, and there are no water, sewer, gas, or air conditioning costs. The Master suite, living room, rec room, and bathrooms feature heated concrete floors to keep the home comfortable. The 15 GPM well produces abundant water and has been tested safe for portability. The oversized garage has more-than-adequate electrical service, a 3/4 bath rough-in, and a water supply. Above the garage is a peaceful mother-in-law’s apartment (441 of the total square footage represented) with ½ bath and a large deck. You'll have two storage sheds, a wood shed, a root cellar, and a carport for extra storage. Enjoy three decks, two with brand new cedar planking, a hot tub, and a new flagstone patio to enjoy outdoor living. Finding a home so close to so many amenities with this type of efficiency is rare!
