2831 20th St [Boulder Notable]
BOULDER NOTABLE SALE: 2831 20th St | $1M 2831 20th Street started as a typical mid century ranch. At some point, likely in the mid 90's, the owner constructed an addition with a second story primary bedroom.

Deal notes: Listed at $950K, the property went under contract within the first week and closed at slightly over $1M. This is a good example of a house that wasn't worth [...]
