1559 Orchard Avenue presents a compelling opportunity to build in the heart of North Boulder on an approximately half-acre, flat, shovel-ready lot. The generous site offers room to think expansively about architecture, outdoor living, landscaping, and the relationship between home and land, a level of flexibility that can be difficult to find elsewhere in Boulder. Whether approached by a developer, architect, or future homeowner, the fundamentals are already in place: a highly usable parcel, substantial space, and an established North Boulder setting. Orchard Avenue has a quiet, tree-lined character, with mature landscaping and larger residential lots creating a sense of space while keeping everyday conveniences close. Lucky's Market, Bakehouse and Cafe are nearby, Broadway provides easy access throughout Boulder, and Wonderland Lake, surrounding trails, and open space offer abundant opportunities to get outside. It is a location that combines the breathing room of an established residential neighborhood with the connectivity that makes North Boulder so desirable. What distinguishes 1559 Orchard Avenue is the combination of land, usability, and location. The flat half-acre provides a substantial canvas for a custom residence, with space to create meaningful outdoor areas alongside the home rather than designing around the constraints of a tighter urban parcel. Bring a personal vision to life, collaborate with an architect, or develop a distinctive North Boulder residence on a site that offers both scale and flexibility. In a city where this amount of usable land is increasingly limited, 1559 Orchard Avenue offers the opportunity to build with room to spare, without giving up access to the neighborhood amenities and outdoor spaces that support the way you want to live.

THE BENCHMARK. One acre at the peak of Benchmark. Flatirons and snow-capped peaks to the west, Davison Mesa open space and eastern sunrises behind, unobstructed in both directions, with no homes in either sightline. This is one of twelve lots in Boulder's Benchmark HOA, and it sits at the top. The previous home was lost in the Marshall Fire. What remains is a cleared site with infrastructure most ground-up builds start without. A heated driveway, still operational. A shared irrigation well serving all 12 HOA homes, green grass without a water bill. The land behind the property is HOA-owned and preserved, making the eastern views and open space permanent. A septic system permitted for 6 bedrooms is already in place, removing one of the more significant unknowns from any new build. For a developer, the site is ready to work. For a buyer building their own home, it offers something that can't be negotiated into a lot position, views, and infrastructure on one of the Front Range's better addresses. It either exists or it doesn't. Here, it does.
