Property Description
Just 3 miles west of Boulder lies this 2.4 acre parcel situated at over 6600' in elevation and ready for your dream home. Located on the west side of Sunshine Canyon Dr, this parcel, complete with beautiful towering pines and aspens, has incredible views of the snow capped peaks of the Rockies. Imagine this backdrop while enjoying your coffee every morning and dinner every evening, it just can't get any better! You'll feel being a part of the mountain life but only 5 minutes to Boulder and just a few more to the Pearl St Mall. The owners had a nearly 4000sqft home and detached studio on site before the Sunshine Canyon fire took the beautiful home, but left the landscape for the next owner to build their forever home. In this highly sought after area, this particular parcel checks off many boxes for someone looking for that perfect building site that has all this to offer and such close proximity to town. All the Boulder amenities are close, and destination hiking trails are even closer. Water (well), electric, septic and propane are all still on site and might be utilized again, saving a number of costs. Even with the Boulder County building moratorium, there are two options. You can build a new home up to 3686sqft and the County has a process to build an ADU up to 700sqft. Building plans and PSA are attached in the documents tab.
