Single Family Homes
2323 4th Street | $3,975,000 | More Details
A stunning trophy home that sits on a giant lot. Originally built for Naropa’s controversial founder, Chögyam Trungpa, it features Japanese style post and beam construction. For capital preservation, we advise our $2MM+ buyers to focus on homes that have protected view corridors or are directly adjacent to open space (preferably with private access). This one checks the second category but there are other options to evaluate too. Worth a look if you’re a serious buyer.
3019 Jefferson Street | $1.8MM | More Details
Turn key, buttoned up, great location, solid layout. Skip planning to build. This one is ready for you to move in. Get ready to stroll to Vic’s for coffee or downtown. It’s also walking distance to the Hospital, Rec Center, Ideal Market and surrounding retail.
3962 Promontory Court | $1.1MM | More Details
Spacious 3 bed home in Wonderland Hill neighborhood. Interior is dated but seems to have good bones. Vaulted ceilings for tall buyers and those seeking natural light. Near open space. HOA includes pool and tennis courts!
4899 Kellogg Circle | $789,000 | More Details
Decent size, family friendly layout in Arapahoe Ridge. This is a good alternative for buyers considering North Boulder or Table Mesa. Unlike many Boulder parks, the pocket park in this neighborhood is not overrun with transients. This particular house has nice updates, but might need a few more. The seller has also disclosed some flood damage. Add proper due diligence for flood related repairs and mitigation to your checklist.
181 Pawnee Drive | $635,000 | More Details
Another solid option if you’re into remodeling. In need of what appears to be mostly cosmetic improvements. House was flooded during 2013’s event, but professionally mitigated. They didn’t re-finish the basement, however. At this price, it’s a cheap entry into Frasier Meadows with a desirable layout (3 bedrooms on the main) and a larger than typical lot for future expansion.
501 Hartford Drive | $599,900 | More Details
Attached Dwellings
3712 Ridgeway Street | $899,000 | More Details
Technically, it’s a duplex but don’t let that stop you. It’s not your father’s duplex. The primary draw of Northfield is modern, efficient construction in a pleasant location. Built in 2010. Dollar for dollar, you can’t build for this price. If you’re shopping Northfield, you want a unit that has the decks overlooking open space or the playing fields. This one checks that box. The one drawback to Northfield is that it’s a newer location without many retail amenities nearby (sorry E, it’s true!).
575 Manhattan Drive 575-205 | $309,900 | More Details
Affordable price for a 2 bedroom in Boulder. Right across the street from grocery and Meadows shopping center, as well as close proximity to Manhattan Middle School. Vaulted ceilings. Worth a look.

Testimonials
We can highly recommend Sophie. Her attention to detail and communication skills are great. Our home was in area that most realtors are not familiar with, but Sophie took extra time to get to know the neighborhood in order to give us quality service. She also brought in a professional photographer to make our home look its best. Even though the listing was in winter, the house sold quickly. With Sophie’s business and people skills, we have no doubt she will be a top realtor in the area.
Osman was a refreshingly honest realtor. He stressed through the entire process that his goal was to make me happy with my home purchase. I greatly appreciated the fact that he never shied away from pointing out the negatives as well as the pluses of different places while leaving the final decision up to me.
