Simply breathtaking. 105 Bellevue is a one-of-a-kind, 1.439-acre property, with excellent southern exposure, looking up into the rugged beauty of Boulder's front range and the towering Flatirons, situated next to Chautauqua Park and nestled on the border of Boulder's 45,000 acre Open Space and Mountain Park systems. It is hidden and private, yet still within the city limits. The site is perfectly situated to take full advantage of the stunning backdrop of the Flatirons as well as overlooking the City of Boulder to the east. Outside your door are a wide variety of some of the most beautiful hiking trails and legendary rock climbing on the front range of Colorado. The sunny, gently sloping building site has excellent access up a private drive which spurs away from the main street. Remarkable unobstructed views shift and change throughout the day. The site takes full advantage of morning sunrises over the plains, city light views, and evening sunsets framing the mountains. All of the amenities and conveniences of the City of Boulder are only minutes away. The value is in the land. The house that is currently on the property is in less-than-ideal condition and would very likely be best removed to make room for new construction. A recent feasibility study is available for review and conceptual architectural renderings designed by Sopher Sparn Architects are available upon request to illustrate the potential. A walk through the current house gives one an idea of how impressive the Flatiron views will be from the inside of the home as well as the city views to the east. This site presents a tremendous opportunity to develop a stunning architectural piece commensurate to both the neighborhood, and the landscape which encompasses it. An extraordinary new home is waiting to be built.

BUILDING/REMODEL OPPORTUNITY: Rare Eldorado Springs mountain property with 3 1/3 lots, exceptional opportunity for a remodel, buildable land or addition, and major infrastructure already in place. Set in one of Colorado's most iconic canyon communities near Eldorado Canyon State Park, world-class climbing, hiking, trails, and Eldorado Springs Resort, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to renovate, expand, or reimagine a truly unique foothills retreat. Unlike many Eldorado Springs properties, the lots have been improved to create a flat, functional front yard, generous outdoor space, and an unusually large brick/paver driveway with rare off-street parking. See drone photos for comparison. The property also features a substantial concrete bunker/garage structure of nearly 1,200 sq ft that may offer creative potential for parking, storage, patio space, workshop use, or future design integration. County records reflect approximately 2,066 sq ft including the home, enclosed porch, and carport/garage/bunker, and the seller notes county guidance may allow a larger finished footprint than typical local limitations. The city restricts building to 1500sqft and they have said this property can be grandfathered into nearly 2100. Additional highlights include connection to sewer, two Eldorado Springs water taps, and massive engineered french drain. The existing cabin offers charm, mountain character, fireplace, bedroom, bath, laundry, and renovation potential. Buyer to verify all square footage, taps, wells, expansion rights, and permitted uses.
