This gem has a distinctive blend of privacy, accessibility, charm and views! Positioned along the northern edge of Fort Collins where open landscapes meet in-town convenience. Enjoy a peaceful mountain feel while traveling up the long curving drive or sitting on the patio as the home is situated on a slight rise tucked into a wooded glen with views of the 10 acres as it slopes away from the home. The home is a Mid Century Modern beauty waiting for your designer touch as comfortable open gathering spaces prioritize functionality, natural light, brick elements and an easy flow between everyday living areas. The primary living room anchors the residence with stylish vintage wood beams, brick facade and cozy fireplace. Second living area entices with an artistically inspiring pot belly stove for a surprising 1800's charm. Large windows draw daylight throughout the interior, reinforcing the connection between the home and its surrounding landscape. The kitchen is a practical hub within the floor plan while French doors connect to outdoor living space. The bedroom spaces allow separation between gathering areas and quieter retreats. The property offers room for entertaining, gardening, recreation, hobby farm, horse ranch, or simply enjoying the views of Colorado's changing seasons. Additional shop with separate drive and electricity is tucked away along the road and currently rented at $600/month. Within convenient reach of Old Town Fort Collins, the Poudre River Trail, and numerous natural areas that support hiking, cycling, fishing, and year-round outdoor recreation this home defines northern Colorado and presents an amazing opportunity. New furnace and A/C installed in 2025. Water rights excluded. 1/10 share of Jackson ditch (with information available supporting continuous historical beneficial use) may be for sale separately.
