3625 Cloverleaf Dr [Boulder Notable]
BOULDER NOTABLE SALE: 3625 Cloverleaf Dr | $3.2MAn extensively reimagined home in the Melody Neighborhood. We showed it in 2021, when it sold for only $2.3M. Turn-key homes sell quickly and for a premium in our local market, due to the limited availability of qualified general contractors and a massive project backlog. My recollection of the home is the layout was a bit challenged, though very modern and efficient in its design. The transom windows at the top of the main living areas added a ton of natural light to the interior, without compromising privacy. Deal Notes: On the market for only a week before a buyer [...]
3715 Cloverleaf Dr [Boulder Notable]
BOULDER NOTABLE SALE: 3715 Cloverleaf Dr | $2.2MJust five houses to the north of 3625 Cloverleaf, which sold for $3.15M six days earlier. A raised ranch with four bedrooms, four baths, and about 3,100 F. SQFT. Marketed as a new home, the developer actually repurposed the existing foundation and other structural elements of the home (just like 3625 Cloverleaf). Acquired for only $910K in May 2021. Permits applied in October (five months later) and issued in February 2022 (another four months). Believe it or not, nine months from acquisition to shovel ready is pretty good in the City of Boulder. Originally listed at $2.7M, the price was cut [...]

6709 Whaley Dr [Boulder Notable]
BOULDER NOTABLE SALE: 6709 Whaley Drive | $1.58MNestled in a pastoral landscape, located between S. Boulder Road and US 36, you'll find a neighborhood with some of the most impressive views in all of Boulder. Commonly referred to as Spanish Hills, although other subdivisions exist, it's also a location that suffered catastrophically during the Marshall Fire. Today, construction activity is underway and in some cases, owners who decided to not rebuild are selling lots. We represented the buyers on the acquisition of this lot last week (3X clients) and can't wait to see what they create. Deal Notes: The lot was listed at $1.75M in September. The final [...]

BOULDER NOTABLE SALE: 3135 5th Street| $4.2M Constructed in 2008, this gorgeous Newlands two-story was thoroughly refreshed by the owners before it came to market this spring.

Deal Notes: The buyers of this home are our relocation clients who initially reached out to us in November. As always, our goal is to help our clients make well informed, intelligent real estate decisions. The search process involved a careful review of last year's sales, evaluation of several Boulder neighborhoods, and in-depth remote [...]

605 Theresa Dr [Boulder Notable]
BOULDER NOTABLE SALE: 605 Theresa Drive | $3.5MAcquired last year for $2.4M, the seller extensively remodeled this six bedroom, five bath house but supposedly realized it was just too small for their needs. Here's what it looked like before the remodel. The second garage (detached) could have been repurposed as a pool house or studio, if the garage space was unwanted. Or it could have been used for recreational/family purposes. We showed it to our clients, but it was a bit too far out of pocket for their needs. Otherwise, it checked a lot of boxes in terms of design and finish. Deal [...]
1275 Rosewood Ave [Boulder Notable]
BOULDER NOTABLE SALE: 1275 Rosewood Ave 241 | $575KA rare carriage house in Uptown Broadway. Built above a row of garages, this property features two bedrooms, one bath, and about 822 SQFT. Although it’s a stand-alone structure, the unit is part of the Uptown Broadway HOA, which recently went through extensive EFIS mitigation. It’s also around the corner from the new North Boulder library, which is soon scheduled to break ground. Full disclosure: Our office is right around the corner from this unit. Stop by and say hi! Deal notes: On the market for a little over a week before a buyer locked it down. 1275 Rosewood #241 [...]
4624 Harwhich St [Boulder Notable]
BOULDER NOTABLE SALE: 4624 Harwich St | $755KAn early 70’s bi-level in Upper Heatherwood. There are many similar properties in the neighborhood, with varying degrees of updates and modifications. Virtually all finishes were dated and ready for a refresh in this house. Still, the location commands a premium, and there is virtually nothing on the market in this price range worth buying at the moment. Deal Notes: On the market for nearly three weeks before it went under contract. Purchased with a conventional mortgage. No disclosed concessions, yet surprisingly it sold for slightly over list. Perhaps there was a late-stage bidding war between buyers, or maybe [...]
3242 4th St [Boulder Notable]
BOULDER NOTABLE SALE: 3242 4th St | $1.6MA mid 50’s era tri-level that will almost certainly be extensively modified in the near future or more likely completely replaced with a newly built home. It's larger than typical lot size and dead end location in Newlands could support significant capital deployment. We look forward to seeing what the new owner does with this interesting property. Tri-levels are not particularly easy to build upon. They’re often deconstructed completely, depending on the owner’s plans. Due Diligence: Boulder is notoriously challenging when it comes to building a new home or even obtaining a permit to modify an existing structure. We have one of [...]
2847 Tincup Cir [Boulder Notable]
BOULDER NOTABLE SALE: 2847 Tincup Cir | $2MShanahan Ridge offers spectacular open space with jaw dropping views. It’s also far, far less crowded than North Boulder trails. Don’t tell the tourists. This detached single family house is part of the Shanahan Ridge HOA, which consists mostly of attached townhomes. Built in the early 80’s, it features four bedrooms, four baths, and a two car detached garage. Modestly sized at 2,800 SQFT, it’s also directly adjacent to community owned open space and steps away from the trailhead. Finishes and many fixtures in this home were quite dated. Most likely they’re original. Not that it mattered, the function, view, [...]
820 Grant Pl [Boulder Notable]
BOULDER NOTABLE SALE: 820 Grant Pl | $2.9MLikely the first owners of this historic bungalow were Orban and Ilene Workinger in 1928. Orban was a CU electrical engineering student who later founded an electric company in Indiana. Tastefully finished and nicely updated; at some point, the home was expanded to just over 3,000 SQFT. It now features four bedrooms, four baths, and a two car attached garage. It’s located less than a block from the entrance to Chautauqua. Deal notes: Listed for $2.8M, this home attracted strong buyer interest and closed in just three weeks for $2.93M, cash. There were no disclosed concessions. Bidding wars are [...]
3401 Arapahoe Ave [Boulder Notable]
BOULDER NOTABLE SALE: 3401 Arapahoe Ave F-419 | $780KA top floor, large studio unit in the 2nd phase of the Peloton. Acquired by the seller in 2018 for $644,480. During their ownership tenure, the seller remodeled the bathroom. For those unfamiliar with the Peloton, it's one of Boulder's premier condo buildings. Featuring concrete construction and built to reduce sound transfer between units, it's a very attractive option for those seeking a lock and leave living experience. Deal notes: The seller (also the listing agent) put this unit on the market for $825K in September. They cut the price twice before the end of the year. The last asking [...]
3642 Fourmile Canyon Dr [Boulder Notable]
BOULDER NOTABLE SALE: 3642 Fourmile Canyon Dr | $865KA attractive two-story house with three bedrooms, three baths, and a workshop over the detached two car garage. The house is 2,065 SQFT. It's also sitting on over an acre of land. If you didn't know the location of this mountain home, you might wonder about the (relatively low) sale price. The house is located on a tight turn, with limited visibility on Fourmile Canyon drive. This is why for deep market knowledge, it's critical to see comparable sales in person. Due diligence: The decisions are always up to our clients, but we always encourage consideration of the future. Homes in busy locations can [...]

Testimonials
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.
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.
