5236 5th St isn't just a home. It's a launchpad for the Boulder life you've been chasing. Head outside and you're minutes from the Foothills Trail, Wonderland Lake Loop, and Lee Hill Road - some of Boulder's most beloved terrain for morning runs, sunset hikes, and two-wheel adventures. Hang gliders drift overhead. Your dog already knows the way to the trailhead.Inside, the home is as light and open as the lifestyle it enables. Soaring ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and a bright open floor plan make every square foot feel alive. The kitchen - white quartz counters, fresh tile backsplash, large island - is ready for post-ride dinners and Sunday farmers market hauls from Lucky's Market just up Broadway. When you're not cooking, Amante Coffee and 4580 are minutes away, and Pearl Street is a quick ride down Broadway whenever the city calls. The primary suite is a sanctuary - vaulted ceilings, breathtaking east-to-west views, a private balcony just steps from your bed. The finished basement gives everyone their own space with a fourth bedroom, 3/4 bath, and family room that flexes from movie nights to home office to guest suite. To top everything off, there's a sheltered south-facing courtyard with a gas fireplace, built for year-round Colorado living. Morning coffee in January. Dinner parties in July. It's the kind of outdoor space that makes you never want to leave - and when you do, the best of Boulder is right out your front door. LIVE BOLDER, LOVE BOULDER!
