Perfectly positioned along the 14th hole of Ptarmigan Country Club, this beautifully maintained ranch-style patio home offers the rare combination of main-floor living, peaceful golf course and mountain views, and a low-maintenance lifestyle in one of Northern Colorado's most sought-after communities. Designed for comfortable everyday living and effortless entertaining, the open floor plan is filled with natural light from expansive windows that frame the surrounding golf course, water, and mountain views. The inviting front courtyard creates a private outdoor retreat with built-in grill space and mature landscaping, while the back deck provides the perfect place to relax and enjoy the open scenery with no rear neighbors. The main level features spacious living and dining areas, a cozy hearth room with fireplace just off the kitchen, and a well-appointed kitchen complete with KitchenAid appliances, gas range, generous cabinetry, and ample prep space. The oversized primary suite serves as a true retreat with an extended bedroom layout, direct deck access, large walk-in closet, and beautifully updated bath featuring a steam shower. A dedicated office with built-in desk and shelving offers an ideal work-from-home setup, while the finished walk-out basement provides excellent space for guests with additional bedrooms, a large recreation room with second fireplace, bathroom, storage space, and a screened-in patio perfect for enjoying Colorado evenings. Additional highlights include a brand-new roof in 2026, oversized south-facing 3-car garage with room for a golf cart, abundant storage, and a premier location offering easy access to golf, dining, pool, tennis, and pickleball amenities available through Ptarmigan Country Club membership. Offering privacy, views, and easy living in an exceptional setting, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy one of Ptarmigan's most desirable patio home locations.
