This $9 Million Colorado Home Gives Rocky Mountain Style an Ultra-Modern Spin
Many dream of a ranch where the deer and the antelope roam, but who needs swaths of land when an ultra-modern residence is up for grabs on the scenic edge of Boulder, Colorado? A new $8.9 million home just came to market with a striking design that pairs metal and glass with natural features like walnut cabinetry and cobbled stone. Its 360-degree views are the real showstopper, though, offering gorgeous vistas of Bear Peak and the Flatirons, a landmark of reddish sandstone formations. Zori Levine of Compass holds the listing.
Tucked away into the city’s West Highland neighborhood, the two-story pad at 1775 Deer Valley Road is conveniently located just minutes from downtown. A naturalistic landscape fronts the hilltop home, while a unique waterfall effect comes into focus as you approach the front door and the main living areas hover above the two-car garage. Wooden planks painted black pop against granite-like stone features that speak to the home’s character, as does the floating staircase that leads to its entrance.

Past the foyer stands the main living area with metal-trimmed floor-to-ceiling windows. This detail trails the home, flooding it with the natural light that’s practically beaming off the nearby mountains. A full-height stone fireplace anchors the space, next to the chef’s kitchen laced with high-end appliances and sleek cabinetry. A pantry and wet bar are accessible from the area, too, plus the formal dining area.

Four bedrooms and five bathrooms are spread across the abode’s nearly 4,560 square feet. A powder room and home office sit on the main level alongside the primary suite, which includes a window-lined walk-in closet and spacious bathroom. The lower level is where the three additional en suite bedrooms are found, plus a customizable bonus space.
The home’s elevated perch and the multiple outdoor living areas offer surreal landscape backdrops for entertaining get-togethers. A pergola with automated sun shades for modulating sunlight includes an alfresco dining space and a built-in BBQ grill; a spa and a patio with a fire pit are positioned to soak in the mountain views; and the roof terrace provides 360-degree unobstructed views of not just the mountains but the twinkling lights of the downtown skyline as well.
The West Highland neighborhood butts up against open space with miles of hiking trails that provide plenty of opportunity to explore Boulder’s great outdoors, known to span 45,000 acres of open space. If you’re a nature lover with an affinity for modern architecture, what could be better?
