A Backyard That’s More Than Just a Yard — It’s a Private Oasis

Some houses have backyards. This one has a retreat.

Tucked behind the walk-out basement of the main home, this west-facing courtyard offers something rare in Colorado — lush greenery, wind-blocking privacy, and year-round usability. Terraced landscaping and a full privacy fence create a pocket of cool, shaded tranquility, even in the height of summer.

As you step through the gate, you're greeted by an artful mountain-scene inset — a small detail that hints at the care and intention behind this space. Follow the pink-gravel path lined with swaths of clover and drought-resistant grass, and you’ll find yourself beneath a charming pergola, ideal for dinner al fresco or morning coffee in the breeze.

We’ve hosted many retreats, client events, and family gatherings here — with easy access to the lower-level kitchen, a covered patio, and multiple seating areas. The covered patio features solar shades, perfect for late summer sun, and flows directly from the finished basement, making this entire space an entertainer’s dream.

Best of all? It’s easy to maintain. Automatic sprinklers, weed-resistant mulched terraces, and hardy native plants mean less time working and more time enjoying.
