About this property

~ Central Boulder Gem - Walk to CU/Folsom - 20 acre park out the back gate ~

  • GreenGate is our mid-century house on a quiet, tree-lined lot in Boulder. It's solar-powered, gets good light, and has been our family home for years. We've tried to keep it comfortable and straightforward — a place where you can settle in quickly and do whatever you came to Boulder to do.

    ~Living Room

    There's a large sectional that gets a lot of use. The room is sunny with big windows, and we have fast Wi-Fi and a TV with YouTube TV, PBS, and Prime Video. Good for a movie night or just hanging out.

    ~Dining Room & Patio

    The dining room is bright and opens onto a screened-in patio through sliding doors. It's a nice spot for morning coffee or an evening outside without the bugs. There are a couple of gravity chairs out there if you want to stretch out. We eat most meals there and spend hours enjoying the backyard.

    ~Bedrooms

    Three bedrooms, each with its own feel:

    The primary has a Cal King, an ensuite bath, and a small loft office area that leads to a private deck with a mountain view.
    The second bedroom has a queen and a calm, quiet atmosphere.
    The third has a full bed — works well for one person or a younger guest.

    Each room has its own AC unit, so you can sleep however you like regardless of what the summer weather is doing.

    ~Kitchen & Bathrooms

    The kitchen is fully updated and well-stocked for cooking actual meals, not just making coffee (though it handles that too).

    ~Backyard & Park

    The backyard is a nice place to slow down — there's a swing and plenty of bird and squirrel activity if that's your thing. The back gate opens directly into a 20-acre park with a playground, splash pad, and an Olympic-size pool. Handy if you have kids, or if you just want a morning swim.

    One thing worth mentioning: This is our actual home, and it shows — there are personal touches throughout. We'd just ask that you take care of it the way you would your own place.

    City of Boulder license #RHL2017-00279 and only 3 unrelated occupants are allowed to rent the space.

    There are two outside Ring security cameras, one at the front door and one near the back door.
