Originally built as the model home by a premier luxury builder, this exceptional estate showcases craftsmanship and thoughtful design rarely found. Set on 1.12 private acres in the Portico neighborhood, this 6-bedroom, 7-bath residence offers timeless French-country elegance with modern lifestyle enhancements. At the heart of the home is the sun-filled family room, featuring soaring cathedral ceilings and a dramatic stone hearth and gas fireplace-a warm, inviting space ideal for daily living and entertaining. Refined finishes include skip-trowel textures, Venetian plaster, luxury wall coverings, wainscoting, tiled accent walls, and premium Hubbardton Forge lighting inside and out. All bedrooms are true suites, each with a dedicated bathroom, offering comfort and privacy. The primary suite is a private retreat, complete with a sitting area, fireplace, covered patio, and spa-like five-piece bath featuring a steam shower, oversized soaking tub, and towel warmer. Recent updates include new wood, tile, and carpet flooring throughout within the last three years. The fully finished lower level expands the living space with a home gym, theater room, additional bedroom with heated tile floors, bathroom, and a custom wine cellar and tasting room. Outdoors, the backyard has been completely transformed (1 Million dollar + in backyard transformation) into a Colorado lifestyle oasis with a three-season covered stone patio with skylights, outdoor kitchen, fire features, salt water pool, hot tub, and natural boulder accents. A custom children's play area includes an in-ground trampoline, sandbox, playground, and timber surround. Built with oversized I-beam construction, sound-deadening boards, extra insulation, heavy tile roofing, and copper gutters, this home reflects quality throughout. Ideally located minutes to Village at the Peaks, downtown Longmont, Boulder, recreation amenities, and Estes Park-luxury living without compromise.
