Property Description
Rare Golden opportunity offering flexibility, income potential, and exceptional energy efficiency. Located in the heart of Golden, this distinctive property combines a comfortable primary residence with a beautifully finished ADU completed in 2023, creating a unique opportunity for multigenerational living, owner occupancy with rental income, a private guest retreat, or long-term investment potential. The property features eight bedrooms, offering lucrative rental potential, along with spacious common living areas, an excellent shared kitchen, and a dedicated study area for tenants. Historically, the rental rooms have been in strong demand from Colorado School of Mines students, with occupancy typically extending through the school year on a month-to-month basis. An owner could choose to live privately in the ADU while managing and benefiting from the rental income generated by the main residence. The ADU was built with numerous upgraded amenities and features its own EV charger. Both residences also benefit from sophisticated solar thermal and solar photovoltaic systems, helping keep overall energy costs remarkably low. The active solar preheat system feeds a substantial 375-gallon storage tank, with tankless space heating and tankless hot water providing additional support. The result is an innovative, energy-conscious system serving both residences. The location further strengthens the property's income potential. Colorado School of Mines and downtown Golden are both within walking distance, while Clear Creek, trails, parks, restaurants, shopping, and major commuter routes are all nearby. With multiple rentable bedrooms, established demand from School of Mines students, exceptionally low energy costs, separate owner living quarters, and a prime Golden location, this property presents a rare opportunity to combine lifestyle, flexibility, and meaningful income potential in one of Golden's most desirable areas.
