A rare little jewel in the heart of Boulder, this beautifully updated 2-bedroom, 2-bath cottage blends historic character with an easy, modern sensibility. Thoughtfully remodeled kitchen and baths pair with original architectural details, creating a home that feels both charming and current. An enclosed front sunroom adds a lovely place for morning coffee, while a generous study, laundry and abundant storage enhance everyday livability. Outside, a private fenced garden and patio offer a quiet retreat for meals and drinks with friends and family. Just moments from CU, Pearl Street, downtown, shops, restaurants, parks, bike paths and transit. The location is especially alluring for anyone who wants to be close to campus life - whether for everyday convenience, CU Buffs football weekends, visiting a student, or simply being part of the energy of Boulder. Set in beloved Goss Grove with off-alley parking, this is an compelling opportunity for a primary residence, pied-a-terre or investment, offering all the appeal of downtown Boulder living with the privacy and personality of a true single-family home.
