    What's special

    Set at the end of Highland Avenue on one of Mapleton Hill's quiet non-through streets, the historic Moorhead House occupies a private, elevated setting walking distance to Pearl Street shops and restaurants, Downtown Boulder, and the Mount Sanitas trails. Built in 1903 and thoughtfully restored, this 4,970 square foot landmark blends original character with modern updates across five bedrooms and five bathrooms. Behind gated grounds, mature landscaping, and a deep south-facing covered porch, the brick exterior, and architectural symmetry reflect more than a century of Boulder history. Inside, original woodwork, moldings, restored windows, quarter-sawn hardwood floors, leaded glass, and fireplaces remain central, while the renovation brought a remodeled kitchen with custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, pantry storage, and a large island that opens to the dining room and sitting area. The main floor also includes a front living room, dedicated office, powder room, mudroom, and access to a shaded rear brick patio. Upstairs, the primary suite offers restored hardwood floors, crown molding, a new dressing room with custom wardrobes, and an updated bathroom with radiant heat flooring, double sinks, a soaking tub, and walk-in shower. A secondary bedroom, study, and north-facing deck complete the level, with a private top-floor suite above featuring skylights, a fireplace, built-in storage, and treetop views. The lower level is a full height daylight level with substantial natural light and functional living spaces, including a recreation room with fireplace, a bedroom, remodeled bathroom with radiant heat, exercise room, laundry, and storage. The deep covered Ipe porch creates a true outdoor room above the gardens, and a detached oversized two-car garage plus a two-car parking pad offer rare convenience for Mapleton Hill. A meaningful piece of central Boulder's architectural history, restored and prepared for its next chapter.
