Surrounded by native grasses and an expansive natural vista, the striking “Marshall Schoolhouse” private residence showcases jaw-dropping Eldorado Canyon, Devil’s Thumb & Flatirons views. Built circa 1900, this gorgeous wood-frame rural clapboard school had three large classrooms for educating miners’ children; its teachers lived across Cherryvale in a little stone house. After decades of use, it went virtually untouched from the late 1950s through the 1980s. In the early ‘90s, the property's scholastic history began anew. The dilapidated building was purchased by a CU computer science professor. The owner moved it 80 feet west, then gutted and meticulously rebuilt it as a private home, keeping many original architectural details. It is now on the Colorado historic register. The property continued to be a learning space, as the owner and his students made national news creating the first house that learned from its inhabitants, 20 years before Nest came to market. Today it has up-to-date (optional) smart-home resources
With outrageously lofty interior ceiling heights and huge 7’ x 2.5 ft windows, front range panoramas and open-space hillsides are invited into every window. This sun-drenched 4 bed/3.5 bath home exudes an airy, happy calm.

The powder room gives a cheeky nod to the home's historic roots. Main floor master and laundry. This assiduously-maintained, historic and renovated home with staggering views is a quick 15-minute drive to Central Boulder
