Dream into your new space to call home in 1652 Poplar Avenue - a rare North Boulder retreat designed for how you live now. Tucked into a quiet cul-de-sac just moments from Lucky's Market and Boulder's beloved trail system, this owner-built residence offers nearly 6,000 square feet of thoughtful luxury on an expansive 18,600-square-foot lot. Every detail reflects intention, quality, and the freedom to evolve. Main-level primary suite is a private sanctuary with a spa-like bath, steam shower, and soaking tub-effortless comfort at the end of every day. Upstairs, spacious en suite bedrooms provide privacy and ease for family and guests alike. At the heart of this home, a gourmet kitchen opens to a beam-accented great room with a striking fireplace-refined yet welcoming, perfect for both quiet evenings and inspired gatherings. A media room and pub-style entertaining space add character and warmth without excess. Designed with versatility in mind, meet your need for a home gym, office, guest quarters, or studio and three-car garage offer room for all your outdoor toys-and more. With a half bath already in place, the space easily transforms into your dream with the capacity to build out an ADU. Built by the owner, no expense was spared, and changes can be made with ease, no architect or designer needed. Outside, the generous lot invites year-round living: space to dine, play, garden, or expand - room to dream and room to grow. A new year, a new vision. This is North Boulder living at its most intentional - elevated, adaptable, and quietly exceptional.
