Set among ancient Ponderosa Pines — including one that has stood for a thousand years — sculptural rock formations, and sweeping south-facing views just minutes from Pearl Street, Lion Point is one of Boulder's most extraordinary private compounds. A place where the feeling of complete mountain seclusion coexists with immediate access to world-class dining, trails, culture, and city life.
The architecture is intentional and unhurried: clean contemporary lines, walls of triple-pane European glass, and seamless indoor-outdoor living that frames the landscape from nearly every principal room. Black arches of Shou Sugi Ban Ponderosa Pine mark the entry. Heated marble floors, Mule marble counters, and a full suite of Thermador appliances define the interiors. The result is not a home that competes with nature, but one that disappears into it — refined in every detail, quiet in its confidence.
The compound unfolds across nearly 6,000 finished square feet: a seven-bedroom main residence spanning four levels with a cinema, gym, wine cellar, and great room of exceptional scale, and a fully appointed guest house with its own systems and living green roof above a three-car garage. Outside, an emerald lap pool sits suspended against the canyon alongside a bespoke copper hot tub hand-crafted by artisans — both set within a landscape conceived by Marpa Landscape Architecture to honor the character of the site rather than alter it.
The technology throughout operates as it should in a home of this caliber: invisibly. Savant whole-home automation manages climate, lighting, audio, and security from anywhere in the world. Passivhaus-inspired construction — superinsulated walls, airtight building envelope, solar array, radiant heated ceilings and floors, and whole-home energy recovery ventilation — places Lion Point among fewer than 120,000 homes on earth built to this standard, delivering exceptional performance at roughly 60% of the operating cost of comparable conventional construction.
And then there is the moment Boulder is approaching. In 2027, the Sundance Film Festival relocates permanently to Boulder — a cultural inflection point that will reshape this market the way similar arrivals transformed Jackson Hole, Telluride, and Park City before them. Lion Point is the rare property positioned to benefit from what is coming, available now, before the world catches up.
Pearl Street is ten minutes away. Denver is forty-five. Vail is ninety. This is Boulder at its most elevated: privacy without isolation, architecture without excess, nature without compromise.
