About this home

Welcome to 2853 Boa Vista Drive in Mesa Verde! Located in the Balearic Neighborhood, one of Mesa Verde's favorite neighborhoods, this tri-level 4-bedroom home has been extensively remodeled over time. Enter to newer flooring throughout the first level, and soaring cathedral ceilings in the family room. The family room is large and features built-in cabinetry on the TV wall, and is open to the kitchen and dining spaces. The kitchen has been remodeled with all-white shaker-style cabinetry and gorgeous dark stone quartzite solid-surface countertops. Adjacent to the kitchen is the dining area, perfect for a 10-person table to host family and your favorite gatherings. Below the dining area is the comfortable living area, which provides a nice separation of space for a second living space in this flexible model. The living room has large sliders that lead to the outdoor space, which features a large patio, a small golf putting green, and a gorgeous pool and spa to enjoy on the hot summer days. The downstairs also features a bedroom, which would be perfect for guests or an in-home office. Adjacent to this bedroom is a remodeled bathroom with an enlarged shower, providing comfortable access for out-of-town guests. The upstairs features three bedrooms, all of which have individual cooling systems (heat pumps). The Primary bedroom has a small walk-in closet, a view of the backyard, and an incredibly redone primary bathroom. The bathroom has a large shower, dual vanities, and great space for this model. The other two bedrooms upstairs are also good-sized and have ample closet space. The hall bath services these two bedrooms and features a shower, a gorgeous antique sink/vanity, and a classic clawfoot tub. The location on this block is ideal, with easy access to the Balearic Community Center and the park, which features brand new basketball and pickleball courts.
