Designed and built by a distinguished Boulder architect as his personal residence, this exceptional two-story home with separate guesthouse showcases unmatched craftsmanship and thoughtful design. Nestled on 35 acres in the coveted, gated Buckingham Hills community, this hidden oasis is one of only nine luxury residences sharing 300 acres of private open space, perfect for hiking and exploring just outside your door. Enjoy vibrant xeriscape gardens, striking rock outcroppings, and breathtaking views of the Continental Divide and Boulder city lights, all just 15 minutes from Broadway.
