Located in the highly sought-after Orchard Glen neighborhood in Erie, this beautifully maintained home sits at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac and backs to an open greenbelt with stunning Indian Peaks mountain views. Zoned for top-rated Boulder Valley schools, which are within walking distance, this property offers an unbeatable combination of access, convenience, and Colorado lifestyle. Step inside to a warm, welcoming entry where a private office with French doors creates the perfect work-from-home retreat. Rich wood floors lead you through a bright, thoughtfully designed main level filled with inviting gathering spaces. A formal dining area is ready for memorable dinners and celebrations. At the heart of the home, the spacious eat-in kitchen shines with a sleek induction stovetop, stainless steel appliances and seamless connection to the main living area where large windows frame the outdoors and a cozy tiled fireplace sets the scene for relaxing evenings. Upstairs, you'll find four generously sized bedrooms, including a stunning primary suite with sweeping mountain views, 2 large walk-in closets, and a five-piece bath. A guest bedroom with its own private bath offers comfort and privacy for visitors. Additional features include a functional mudroom with laundry, a cool dog door with attached shelter, and thoughtful storage throughout. The south-facing driveway provides added winter convenience, while the expansive backyard showcases mature fruit trees, an established garden, and direct access to walking path + open space which is ideal for outdoor living. An unfinished basement offers excellent potential for future expansion, home gym, or additional storage. Conveniently located near Downtown Erie, Old Town Lafayette + Louisville, minutes to Boulder, walkable to parks, trails, and major commuter routes, this home checks all the boxes for buyers seeking a move-in ready home with mountain views, walkable schools, and modern upgrades.
