2131 Bonvue Drive

When location is everything, you will be hard-pressed to top this one! Seldom do custom BRICK homes become available in Golden in this price range. This highly sought-after location is literally at the base of Lookout Mountain. The UNOBSTRUCTED views of both the city and the mountains from almost every window in this home makes evening sunsets or morning sunrises SPECTACULAR. It is in close proximity to the educational institutions, as well as steps to multiple hiking and biking trails. Nestled at the foot of Lookout Mountain, with a lot that is almost 1/2 acre, the home provides gardeners and entertainers alike with a secluded backyard oasis that provides privacy and wildlife viewing year-round. The home needs some aesthetic updating but, with the open-flowing floor plan and generous sized rooms, there are multiple flex-space options throughout. You are 20 minutes to Boulder or Denver and yet you are only one mile to the freeways (58,93, and 6th Ave). There is an oversized multi level FRONT deck where all can sit and view the downtown panoramas and table mountain or you can gravitate to the lush backyard featuring  raised flower beds, Ivy drapings and retaining walls, creating the virtual secret garden. The lower level garage was previously converted into living space (but could be retracted to create a garage again if desired)  yet the covered carport has provided weather shields that have worked wonderfully for this family who chose to keep this architectural alteration. We have priced this home to sell this weekend.
