401 Shady

Located at the end of the road, this custom stucco home, built in 2007, occupies 7 private acres in a coveted neighborhood just minutes from Nederland, with 3 sides adjoining National Forest. Framed by dramatic rock outcroppings and sweeping snowcapped Indian Peaks views, this exceptional property offers refined craftsmanship, seclusion and direct access to nature. A private drive leads to a level parking area and oversized 2-car garage. Inside, the tiled foyer opens to an inviting open-concept main level designed for living and entertaining. The well-appointed kitchen features granite counters, a 4-person bar, stainless appliances and an oversized pantry, while the adjacent dining and living areas showcase newly refinished hickory floors, tall ceilings and a wall of windows capturing the mountain panorama. Step outside to a spacious composite deck and flagstone patio that leads to a hot tub nestled against tumbled boulders. A dedicated office with Murphy bed offers flexibility as a 4th bedroom, while a half bath completes the main level. Upstairs, 3 generous bedrooms accompany a massive rec room/flex space with balcony, views and a metal spiral staircase to the grounds. The primary suite is oriented toward the views and features an ensuite with soaking tub, separate shower and private balcony with spiral stairs to the deck. An owned solar system helps offset energy costs. A fenced yard provides space for pets or play, while rock outcroppings and a private trail system lead toward National Forest and miles of hiking from your doorstep. The basement offers potential for future finished space, with a finished laundry room already in place. A metal roof and new tankless water heater add to the home's enduring appeal. Just 10 minutes to Nederland and an easy, scenic commute to Boulder via the summer access road, this is a special mountain property with the quality, setting and timeless appeal to become a legacy home for generations.
