The Menkick House is located in the exclusive Knollwood neighborhood at the top of Mapleton Hill, on over an acre of privacy, complete with stunning views and incredible architecture. This is one of the most iconic and impressive homes in all of Boulder. The famed Menkick House was designed by renowned Boulder architect, Charles Haertling, and has been thoughtfully updated. Seamlessly incorporated into the stunning face of Gyp Rock (Green Rock), this home is a work of art. Every once in a while the opportunity to own a piece of history presents itself. The Menkick House, with four bedrooms, �ve bathrooms, and over 5,000 square feet, is available for only the second time in 40 years.
The Knollwood neighborhood is nestled against Open Space at the top of Mapleton Hill, o�ering a combination of seclusion and downtown Boulder proximity. Among the community bene�ts are direct access to Mt Sanitas, Red Rocks, and your own footpath directly down to Pearl Street. It is extremely rare to

�nd such a stunning home, on a 1+ acre parcel, in one of the most sought after locations in all of Colorado, with views, privacy, and access to all that Boulder has to o�er. While the home and its architectural provenance are stunning from the street, life at the Menkick House is even more impressive when experienced within this indoor-outdoor home. Direct access to multiple Open Space trails provides hundreds of acres of hiking, biking and running opportunities (for dog lovers, you have o�-leash open space out your back door). Throughout the Spring and Summer, the sound of running water cascading over several falls can be heard in your yard - a rarity in Boulder. A private bench perched high on the south side of the property captures stunning views and the sunset over the Flatirons. Light changes throughout the day and re�ects o� Gyp Rock into the home. For history bu�s, the very �rst photo of Boulder features Gyp Rock. Life on an acre in Knollwood is luxurious and private, yet just steps from trails, excellent neighborhood schools, along with award-winning restaurants, co�ee shops, Mapleton Hill, and downtown Boulder.
Approaching the home from the private driveway o� Mapleton, through a canopy of trees, over a private bridge that crosses Sunshine Creek, the 3 garage spaces o�er ample parking. You can also access the home o� Green Rock Drive on the circular front parking area. Looking directly through the oversized front door and entrance hallway, a secret garden has been uncovered, welcoming you to the indoor-outdoor lifestyle, a hallmark of the Usonian school of mid-century modern architecture. This garden makes for a remarkable space to dine al-fresco, enjoy a morning co�ee, or visit with friends. The kitchen, with function-al storage and excellent south-facing light, walks out to the secret garden. The adjoining dining room which also accesses the garden through glass doors, features abundant windows with views to the south and to the north. Gyp Rock is prominent in the dining room and provides a beautiful setting when illumi-nated, making for a stunning dinner party.
The living room, on the north side of the home, features a wood
burning �replace, an inviting space for gathering, a built-in sofa on the east wall, and a wall of glass that opens to one of the most breathtaking decks. The north-facing deck, cantilevered and suspended in the canopy of trees, has been completely rebuilt and now features a large section of clear glass �oor. This design was incorporated to allow natural light into the living spaces below the deck, evening light from inside the home to �oat up through the glass, and to draw the canopy re�ection into the living room. The mahogany deck is a natural extension of the main living area, and creates an excellent outdoor space to gather, dine, and enjoy the views and sounds of the creek and its wild-life.
To the north of the deck is a vast, wooded riparian habitat that extends across Sunshine Creek to Maple-ton and is home to Boulder wildlife. From the deck there are winter views to the trails on Mount Sanitas Open Space. Also visible from the deck is the private driveway that leads directly to Mapleton.
Down a long and stunning gallery hallway, is the sunlit family room. This room features a wall of south-facing glass, as well as high windows on the west and north sides of the room. Exposed concrete on an exterior wall blends directly into this room. This space is well lit throughout the day and o�ers numerous views of Red Rocks, the Flatirons and surrounding area. There is also an exterior door that leads to the secret garden.
The master bedroom on the upper level has been maintained and features multiple view corridors. The Gyp Rock features prominently in the master bedroom suite, with the deck built into the moss rock. This deck, recently rebuilt of silver mahogany with etched glass

outlining Gyp Rock, gives the owner privacy and views north to Mt Sanitas, as well as direct views south to Red Rocks and the Flatirons. The master bathroom features some of the very best views in Boulder, including an unobstructed view of the Flatirons.
The lower level of the home has been thoroughly restored. On the mezzanine level down from the main �oor is a fantastic o�ce, also with views to the north. Down another half �ight of stairs is a �exible and func-tional media room, that makes for a great kids’ play area or den. Two whimsical kids bedroom suites are found on the north side of the home, each with very distinct features. The northwest bedroom features excellent views into the Sunshine Creek verdant, as well as a great bedroom and separate area for a couch, desk, or play area. The northeast bedroom, built into the Gyp Rock, features gorgeous windows and views, along with a dreamy handmade, white oak built-in bed, ensuite bathroom, and private entrance to a small deck.
Rounding out the lower level of the home is an over-sized, wonderful guest suite, complete with an en suite bathroom, a separate exterior entrance, peaceful views to the north, and plenty of space for a large dining table and bar area. This suite o�ers numerous options and great �exibility for visiting guests or a nanny.
Charles Haertling engaged in a lengthy interview process with potential clients to ensure compatibility of their visions. This allowed for every home he created to become a bespoke masterpiece, pulling from both design in nature and innate livability within the home. The current owners have honored the architect’s passion for combining balance and nature with an intuitive, beautiful remodel.
