1889 Wilson Circle, Erie

It’s easy to picture: a serene summer day, music playing from your built-in living room and back deck speakers, a lemonade beside you as you look out on a lush greenbelt that feels like a huge extension of your own backyard. Here, under a canopy of mature trees, tucked in a quiet, safe neighborhood with friendly neighbors and a network of paths and parks, the coveted Colorado lifestyle is alive and well. And it’s one that’s made especially carefree in a special home that’s had a single set of owners who’ve invested in its care with ongoing updates, a new roof, a freshly painted exterior, a new furnace, upgraded carpeting and more. The main floor is open, bright and delightfully livable, including a first-floor office or study, a spacious living room with a gas fireplace, and a kitchen with a large island, eat-in nook and Viking range. Upstairs, your primary suite is the place to unwind, with a private deck and a sunlit reading nook. Two secondary bedrooms share a Jack-n-Jill bath. In the basement is even more space, fresh paint, and new carpet, with a fourth bedroom at garden level for lots of sunlight. Built-in shelving, storage closets and a wine closet offer all the storage you need (and then some) when paired with the extra space in your 2.5-car garage. This sweet spot in Erie puts you in the St. Vrain Valley School District and close to downtown’s eateries and shops. Nearby are sunset views at beloved Thomas Reservoir, a fabulous rec center and library, summer concert and film series, and the Erie Farmers’ Market. Better yet, a location central to Boulder, Longmont and Denver provides easy access for commuting or exploring adventures in every direction.
