Haystack House - Originally designed by solar pioneer Richard Crowther, Haystack House is one of Colorado’s most quietly remarkable estates. Sited on 8.84 secluded acres in Niwot with 360º unobstructed views spanning Pikes Peak to Longs Peak, the Flatirons, and Boulder’s city lights at night. Minutes from downtown Boulder. Profoundly private.
The architecture earns its pedigree. Passive solar design, 23-foot cedar-beamed ceilings, hydronic heated floors, and reclaimed Beetle Kill Pine floors throughout. Kolbe commercial-grade windows. Net-zero solar. Every material chosen for longevity and beauty.
The chef’s kitchen is built for serious use: custom cabinetry, Thermador appliances, Lefroy Brooks fixtures, dual dishwashers. Multiple living suites have private entries and spa-caliber baths. The lower level runs its own logic - gym, steam shower, lounge, kitchenette, vineyard-facing patio.
Outside, a stocked one-acre pond with island, dock, fire pit, and footbridges. An established vineyard, organic gardens, asparagus field, chicken coops, and 45 water shares feeding a full irrigation system. The 1,200-SF Morton Barn - 28-foot ceilings, heated slab, solar, workshop, kitchenette - is ready for an artist, an equestrian, or a future ADU.
This is not a weekend retreat dressed as a working property. It functions. It produces. It performs.
For collectors, creatives, and people who want Colorado without compromise.
