Discover this month’s AIP-Friendly Homes in Boulder County, a curated list of properties selected for their Aging-in-Place potential, safe layouts, and long-term livability.

Below is a sample of my hand-picked list of homes that stand out for Aging-in-Place potential — based on layout, entries, bathrooms, and how easily they can be adapted over time.

These are not just single-story homes pulled from a search. Each one has been reviewed through my Certified Aging-in-Place Specialist lens and Boulder-County-based realtor.

For each home, you’ll see:

• Key details (city, price, beds/baths, home type)
• Why I believe it’s AIP-Friendly or AIP-Potential
• A link to view full photos and details

If you’d like help touring any of these — or want a second opinion on how well a home will support aging-in-place — you can always reach out to me directly.
