No one near Chautauqua has parking like this. The Hummingbird House offers an oversized tandem garage that holds three cars in a neighborhood where a single off-street space is bragging rights. Plus alley parking and room for the RV. That alone would sell the house. It happens to sit on a tree-lined street, a stroll from Chautauqua's summer concerts and trailheads, with Pearl Street and campus both walkable. The build quality shows in the envelope: redwood-and-brick exterior, copper gutters, crown molding. The living room gathers light through a bay window and holds it against wood floors and a Jotul gas fireplace. The kitchen pairs granite and a gas range with soft-close cherry cabinets, a beverage fridge, and a sunny breakfast nook. Out back, a covered patio opens to the private garden retreat that gave the house its name: Hummingbird Alley. Upstairs, the primary suite offers wood floors, dual closets, a private terrace, and access to a secluded skylit bonus room with a wet-bar rough-in: an office, studio, or reading retreat. The second bedroom has an ensuite bath, walk-in closet, and Juliet balcony. The lower level changes the math: it offers lock-off capability, a full second kitchen, a living room, a third bedroom (nonconforming) with a walk-in closet, and a rental license already in place. Stainless Munchkin boiler. Homes in this pocket trade on location alone. The Hummingbird House has the location and everything the neighborhood usually asks you to give up.

A basement, in addition to above-grade square footage, can be habitable with reasonable egress. Substantial entitlement work has been completed in the past. Previously approved plans (since voided for inactivity) called for a 2-story single-family home - 1,882 sq ft of interior living plus a 480 sq ft attached 2-car garage above grade, over a 1,418 sq ft finished basement - while preserving the existing 396 sq ft historic landmarked carriage house. The historic carriage house may have potential for ADU conversion (carrying historic designation; the lot itself does not), as previously confirmed by the city. Included in the sale: blueprints, soil reports, and the previously approved architectural plans. Boulder real estate has demonstrated strong appreciation, and, an opportunity in a location this hard to replicate, doesn't come along often.
