Gateway to Paradise
Longmont, Boulder County, Colorado
The vestiges of what was once Potato Hill Ranch is a 7.6-acre home privately nestled in hundreds of acres of open space. The house was originally built in 1980 of wood framing and mossrock accents. In 2010 it was given a new roof and a remodel-a process that has continued to the present. The house and yard take good advantage of the location with numerous decks and a covered patio. A Morton Barn with tack room, hay storage and a frost-free water spigot opens to pastures that flourish in summer from the sub-surface moisture. Lykins Gulch drains the foothills and surface water fills a picturesque pond before continuing on its way down valley, sustaining tree growth of both indigenous- and fruit trees along its course.
