It was love at first sight with this spectacular Boulder estate. Located on 30-acres, this unique home offers so much that we don’t even know where to begin. Read on to discover the unexpected elements that make it so unique (a teepee! goats!) and what caught the owners’ attention in the first place.
JADE is the kind of property you rent with your family because there is just so.much.to.do.there. Only 10-15 minutes away from downtown Boulder, Pearl Street, & CU, this house features 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 2 living areas, a kitchen, a dining table, and a fireplace. So there are no bumping elbows inside. There is also a separate suite attached, with its own entrance, 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and a kitchenette. But wait: there’s more.
Outside guests can swim in the heated pool, soak in the hot tub, or go fishing or kayaking in the pond. The views of the surrounding mountains make for amazing photos. Another feature that we love is the quiet gazebo, perfect for finishing that book, and the teepee, where kids can let loose and play all they want. The whole property offers so many nooks to create memories. Also: goats live in the estate so kids can make new four-legged friends.
In terms of design, the house has a rustic feel and decor that merges seamlessly with the lush nature outside. We reached out to the owners of JADE to learn more about it. The Thompsons explained that they had farm heritage in mind as the overall concept behind the design. Modern French country finishes add another layer of depth to the spaces.
It was the closeness to the water, the access to the outdoors, the breathtaking views, and rustic charm that drew the owners to this particular property. Their favorite corner in the house? “The great room, kitchen, and dining area flow beautifully with the outdoor space, pool, and outdoor recreation for ideal family time and entertaining.” We agree.
