Tucked into Sale Lake, a rare North Boulder enclave of just 25 homes centered around a private pond, conservation area, and nature trail, 2885 Island Drive offers modern design, privacy, and convenience on a private, tree-lined lot. Built in 2023 by Factor Design/Build, this 5-bedroom, 4-bathroom home delivers nearly 5,000 finished square feet with a 3-car garage. Site-finished white oak floors, expansive windows, warm wood accents, black steel details, and bold tile run throughout, while fully owned solar, two HVAC systems, and a whole-house ERV fresh-air system add efficiency and comfort. The open main level connects the living room, dining area, and kitchen around a green tile fireplace, anchored by a floating staircase and stone feature wall. The kitchen features a large island, stone counters and backsplash, warm wood cabinetry, open shelving, and a walk-in pantry. Upstairs, four bedrooms share one level with a laundry room and a flexible media room, and one bedroom works well as a private home office. The primary suite includes a walk-in closet, a private deck with Flatirons and foothills views, and a spa-like bathroom with heated floors, a freestanding soaking tub, and a zero-entry shower. The lower level is a full height walk-out level with substantial natural light and functional living spaces, including a large recreation room, a fifth bedroom, a walk-in closet, and a bathroom with a steam shower. Outside, a covered patio, level lawn, mature old-growth trees, fenced areas, a cold plunge, and multiple decks create private, low-maintenance outdoor living with mountain views. With new construction quality, owned solar, advanced comfort systems, and a highly functional floor plan, 2885 Island Drive is polished, private, and move-in ready, near major commuting routes including 28th Street, Foothills Parkway, and the Diagonal Highway, and minutes from trails and the heart of Boulder.
