Fairfield Farm provides a thirty-five acre sanctuary with all the peace and tranquility of a rural farm, but within minutes of Boulder, Lafayette and Louisville.
The house has been thoughtfully placed within the parcel and the masterful landscaping includes a substantial screen of both evergreen and deciduous trees, which protect the house without impinging on the views or closing it in too much.
The house features 7000 square feet of finished space above grade, making it unnecessary to build out the basement which houses the water and heating systems. The ground floor is a complex of living and recreation rooms reached via mudrooms from the entrances. The front door leads through a hall to access a wide staircase with double story ceilings and all the ground floor rooms, including a study and a formal living room. Floors are primarily carpet and all rooms are spacious, with high ceilings and well lit by large double-hung windows. A central kitchen leads to a large, informal breakfast room, a formal dining room and a screened porch with brick floors.
Upstairs, six bedrooms served by five bathrooms are built in distinct private areas, all with good views. Besides a large master suite with walk-in closets, a fireplace, and a five piece bath, there are two other suites – one completely self-contained with outside access, and another corner unit with views on two sides. Three decks are built on this level. A large laundry room completes the floor and makes for efficient living.
The theme of large rooms has been carried over to the six-stall horse barn, which incorporates two grooming bays and a hay storage area. The fields are fenced for horses and the property has a water rights from the Davidson ditch. |
