BOULDER NOTABLE SALE: 2800 5th St | $3.5M
We took several clients to see this newly constructed home in Newlands while it was on the market. Modern and attractive, it still had several significant challenges. The biggest problem was the layout lacked an easily accessible powder room on the main. The home also suffered from a disconnected and small outdoor living area, and a relative lack of privacy next to its sister house next door.
Deal notes: Listed in October of last year, the seller cut the price dramatically after a few weeks on the market. The listing expired, but it was brought back. Somehow, at closing the sale price once again exceeded the now reduced list price value by over $200k. Perhaps this was due to modifications undertaken to suit the new owner. It’s also possible there’s an error in the database. Wait for the public record update to confirm.
