474 Marine St #CU2

Welcome to this beautifully custom-crafted Boulder oasis! This unique opportunity combines stunning Front Range and Flatiron views - all in a contemporary urban paradise nestled between the base of Flagstaff Mountain, Boulder Creek and Eben G Fine Park. Steps away from Open Space trailheads and just blocks away from Pearl Street's renowned dining and shopping. This masterpiece of modern form and function boasts custom architecture, construction and interior design that creates an inviting and open flow inside and out. This space is the perfect place to entertain guests - or simply relax in your private retreat. A permanent view and garden easement to the west increases the effective footprint of the lot, prohibiting light pollution and preserving views of the mountains. The creation of the garden easement, view and light protections are exceedingly rare in Boulder. 10 years ago the owner made approximately $500K in these easement and landscaping expenditures to guarantee that this little paradise will survive in perpetuity. And to top it all off (literally!), there is a rooftop garden / green space with the possibility to add solar panels. Interior features are too numerous to list completely, but to name a few: a single piece of granite shaped in the form of a boomerang comprises the kitchen/bar counter, stainless high-end Bosch appliances, and exquisite fixtures and faucets. One-of-a-kind lighting inspired by the great American artist James Turrell - the lighting alone is a MUST SEE. Downstairs, the primary suite features a custom single-pour acrylic soaking tub and the entire space is carpeted in virgin New Zealand high-pile wool. Amazingly efficient and and sound-proof construction achieved partially via custom Anderson windows with stained glass inlaid between the panes. No expense has been spared in the creation of this work of art of a home. Don't miss out on this RARE opportunity to live in the magnum opus of some of Boulder's most creative minds.
