Idyllic country ambiance meets European farmhouse style in this extraordinary close-in compound featuring a Provence-inspired main residence and a brand-new barn on nearly 10 riverfront acres filled with meadows, gardens, pastures and breathtaking Longs Peak views. Situated 10 minutes from the heart of Longmont, Colorado, and just 30 minutes from Boulder or 60 minutes from Denver, this magical property is perfect as a full-time residence or a tranquil retreat.

You’ll feel like you’ve arrived in the South of France the moment you enter the beautifully designed two-bedroom plus office, three bathroom farmhouse. Tastefully curated décor melds rustic finishes like flagstone and hardwood flooring and hand-hewn timber-beamed ceilings with convenient modern amenities for a serene, effortless lifestyle. Oversized windows and designer lighting illuminate hand-selected details and antique Spanish doors throughout.

Enjoy a seamless flow from the gracious entry to the sun-kissed dining room warmed by a wood-burning fireplace and the handsome living room flanked by French doors. Off the main living space, the bright corner office is the perfect work-from-home destination. Ahead, the open chef’s kitchen is filled with sleek cabinetry, open shelving, a classic farm sink, and rich marble and wood countertops. Tackle each culinary adventure with upscale stainless appliances, including a vented gas range, Gaggenau wall ovens, a bottom-freezer refrigerator, dishwasher drawers and a wine refrigerator. A center island/breakfast bar and a breakfast nook with buffet cabinetry provide plenty of room for casual dining. Past the kitchen is a large pantry and scullery.  A powder room and a laundry room add wonderful convenience and complete the main level.

Luxurious accommodations begin with an inviting secondary suite on the main floor featuring a roomy closet and a lovely en suite bathroom. On the upper level trimmed with birch barrel-vaulted ceilings, a spacious family room leads to the private primary suite offering gorgeous views, generous closet space and a spectacular spa bathroom with a soaking tub, benched shower and double vanity.

Outside, the charming main house is surrounded by a covered porch for al fresco entertaining overlooking manicured landscaping, lush gardens and planter beds waiting to deliver a bounty of fresh vegetables and herbs. Throughout the delightful grounds, you’ll find the Little Thompson River and a spring-fed pond, mature trees and hay ground. The pasture is perfect for equestrians, and an endless array of wildlife adds to the mesmerizing allure of this remarkable sanctuary.

Just a stone’s throw from the main house, the brand-new, two-story barn adds impressive living space, guest space, and storage to this compound. Enjoy a sprawling four-car garage, workshop, industrial kitchen and bathroom on the main floor. Above, you’ll find a vaulted ceiling with a huge custom home gym, powder room, and an amazing guest suite. A 19 KW solar away creates a near net-zero existence for the entire property. 

Multiple foot paths wander through a magical forest full of mature trees, and lead down past two ponds to the Little Thompson River. To the west, Longs and Meekers rise in the distance and offer snow capped views. This secluded getaway is just minutes from Longmont amenities, including outstanding restaurants, open space and trails, golf courses, Whole Foods, Target, and Main Street shops and services. The hip village of Hygiene, popular with cyclists and home to Lowrider, is just a few miles away.
