Discover an urban oasis in this spacious, private ~1.6 acre lot, just minutes from downtown Boulder. A short five-minute drive to the Google Campus and Whole Foods, a three-minute ride to the multi-use bike path and walking distance to the RTD bus stop, the location is convenient to downtown Boulder, the Diagonal, and access to Longmont/Denver/the mountains. Zoned Rural Residential, this property offers a rare blend of city convenience and rural tranquility. Thanks to Boulder County's 'two animal units per acre' allowance, imagine keeping a couple of horses, 10 llamas, or 100 chickens. The zoning also supports agri-businesses, agriculture, and some community and lodging uses; imagine hosting farm-to-table dinners for friends with food from your micro-farm. Move into the ready-for-update farmhouse or build your dream home on this huge lot. This parcel is filled with shade from mature trees and the soothing sound of the ditch to the east & south (1/40th water share to sell with property). For new construction, the front setback is 25 feet, the side setback is 7 feet, the rear setback is 15 feet, and the maximum height is 30 feet. With no HOA, you can personalize this space to your liking. Note that the parcel may be annexable to the City of Boulder, creating an opportunity for City water and sewer. Please contact us or look in MLS documents for info about animals and businesses Boulder County approves for rural residential zoning, City of Boulder annexation, and Boulder water/sewer tap info. This property is sold as-is, with inspection summaries and structural reports available for review. Proximity to the Boulder Reservoir, popular parks, recreational areas, and the University of Colorado Boulder adds to the property's appeal. Come and see this special property - you won't want to leave.
