BOULDER NOTABLE SALE: 3631 Eldorado Springs Drive | $6.6M 35 acres of prime Boulder real estate, directly adjacent to open space, 3631 Eldorado Springs was available for a very brief period. The location and parcel size is where the value exists. The existing 20's era house will likely be demolished to make way for a luxury residence. There's also some potential of the lot being subdivided to create a family compound.3631 Eldorado Springs Drive was listed at $5.7M in June. It was available for only a few days before going under contract but took another three months to close. Likely that extended closing schedule was because the seller's family needed [...]

1510 Old Tale Rd, Boulder 5 bd | 4 ba | 4,375 sqft $3,893,750 Deal Note: We represented the buyer of this fantastic home.
1765 View Point Rd [Boulder Notable]
Boulder NOTABLE SALE: 1765 View Point Rd | $3.15M Houses directly adjacent to open space are the equivalent of waterfront property. They hold their value well during downturns, command surprising premiums during market upswings, and ownership rarely changes hands. Last on the market 24 years ago, the interior of this five bedroom, four bath was ready for an extensive remodel. The floor plan and size should support the post acquisition investment in this location. The outdoor living spaces are quite attractive, including a relatively rare pool with waterfall. Deal notes: Even as the market has softened recently in Boulder, 1765 View Point [...]
310 Morning Glory Dr [Boulder Notable]
Boulder NOTABLE SALE: 310 Morning Glory Dr | $2.15MChautauqua cottages are rarely on the market, and when remodeled like this one, they tend to go quickly. Originally constructed in 1928 by Jon Blanchard, who built eight other cottages for out of town owners, this is the second cottage built on the site. Earlier maps from 1900 to 1922 show a smaller cabin.The current home features just two official bedrooms in its ~1,500 SQFT and as typical for the neighborhood, no garage. The remodel is tastefully executed and the home's location in the neighborhood is not a thoroughfare for hikers. Due Diligence: [...]
1295 Edinboro Dr [Boulder Notable]
Boulder NOTABLE SALE: 1295 Edinboro Dr | $1.44MHouse Einstein has several clients on Edinboro drive, none of whom have ever sold. It's a solid location, in close proximity to the park and an easy bike ride to schools. This mid 60's ranch has an early 90's second story primary suite addition. The kitchen and main level looks like it may have been remodeled in the early 2000's. The backyard is overgrown, but there's nice flatwork. The lime green color might not appeal to everyone's taste, but paint is cheap. Deal notes: Listed at $1.59M in May, the seller slashed the price [...]
740 S 46th St [Boulder Notable]
Boulder NOTABLE SALE: 740 S 46th St | $975K This appears to be a Martinique model, the largest ranch when the neighborhood was originally developed in the 1950s. With vaulted ceilings and an extensive remodel, it's a nice representation of what's possible with this style of basic home in Boulder. The location was likely the sticking point for some buyers. It backs directly to Summit Middle School, although the neighborhood itself is a fantastic spot - close to parks, trails, and shopping. House Einstein's Ian Steinmo actually lives in the neighborhood. His view: "This 3 bed/3 bath is a common build throughout Martin [...]
4104 Saint Croix St [Boulder Notable]
Boulder Notable Sale: 4104 Saint Croix St | $1.55M A classic five bedroom, four bath, two-story in the Fourmile neighborhood in North Boulder. Constructed in the late 90's, the home still featured mostly original builder finishes and a classic time-tested layout. It's a good benchmark for the neighborhood, adjusted for interior condition and the location on a somewhat busy corner. Deal notes: Saint Croix Street is an artery into the neighborhood, which coupled with higher mortgage rates, may explain why this property sat for more than two months before it went under contract. The seller cut the price a little after a month [...]

2350 Panorama Ave [Boulder Notable]
Boulder NOTABLE SALE: 2350 Panorama Ave | $1.9M Most of Panorama Ave sits on a perch. View quality is a key determinant of valuation. Some homes have picture perfect views of downtown and the Flatirons. Others are blocked. It's very much hit or miss. It appears this one is a bit too far to the west and doesn't have the view corridor. Constructed in the early 50's, this ~1,700 SQFT ranch features three bedrooms, three baths, and a 2 car carport. Most likely it will be completely torn down and a new home will be built on the lot. It will be [...]
310 S 40th St [Boulder Notable]
Boulder NOTABLE SALE: 310 S 40th St | $1.1MThe remodeled ranch plus full basement market in South Boulder is holding up quite well. This basic home was originally built in the 1950's, like most of the neighborhood, and then thoroughly reworked. These style of homes are perfect for a variety of buyers and in a down-market, tend to be one of the last to adjust. In other words, they hold their value very well and have for decades. 310 S 40th was nicely remodeled. It featured four bedrooms, three baths, and about 2,500 T.SQFT. The reason the SQFT is a bit [...]

5890 Woodbourne Hollow Dr [Boulder Notable]
NOTABLE SALE: 5890 Woodbourne Hollow Rd | $5.9M Hidden away in a pastoral setting in northeast Boulder, just north of the airport, this +8,600 SQFT estate was formerly owned by local filmmaker Peter Coggan. It featured a 5 acre lot, six bedrooms, six baths, and timeless design. A turn-key property, interior finishes were tastefully updated throughout and the home had many unusual features, including an indoor lap pool. It was on the market for a little over a month and sold for $300K below list. Due diligence: This area is currently subject to air traffic noise (general aviation), however the future of [...]
1010 Edinboro Dr [Boulder Notable]
NOTABLE SALE: 1010 Edinboro Dr | $1.6M A two-story with a classic layout in Table Mesa, this home was a 70's museum. The primary selling point was its potential and corner lot. The street itself is not quite as busy as you might think from the map, it’s mostly a feeder to the neighborhood. The school and land across the street was a nice perk. Deal notes: On the market only a few days, it sold for $100K over list, with a small concession for undisclosed reasons. Our clients passed on it due to the scale of remodeling needed.

2727 Folsom St #101 [Boulder Notable]
NOTABLE SALE: 2727 Folsom St #101 | $315KSophie Kloor and Osman both worked closely with the sellers of this property in the past, and it was a fun opportunity to collaborate again. The seller also took our advice on preparing this property for market and worked hard to properly stage it. The property really shined and after a short period, attracted a strong offer. It sold for about 3.2% above list with a concession to replace a furnace at the end of its life. At $315K, it also set a record for the highest sale price of a single bedroom [...]
1045 Grape Ave [Boulder Notable Sale]
NOTABLE SALE: 1045 GRAPE AVE | $2,500,000 This stunning house caught our buyers eye and we aggressively pursued it. Not only does it look like it belongs in Dwell Magazine, it actually was in Dwell Magazine. Remodeled for the owner of Cure, every detail was well chosen and tastefully crafted.The only flaw? It’s on a section of Grape Street dominated by overhead transmission electrical lines, so called high-tension lines. Although there’s a good chance that these lines will one day be undergrounded (Xcel has committed over $30M for the project), for now they dominate the landscape at the front of the [...]
