About This Home
Location! Location! Location! Welcome to this beautifully updated 1960 midcentury ranch in one of Fort Collins' most unbeatable locations. Situated on a nearly quarter-acre lot, this 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom home offers the perfect blend of timeless character and modern updates - all within close proximity to Whole Foods, the Trail system, live concerts at Spring Creek, and an easy bike ride to Old Town and CSU. This home has no forced basement living because the main level offers an expansive well designed footprint. Thoughtfully remodeled in 2019, the home features Milarc custom cabinetry, a spacious kitchen, and updated bathrooms. The open floor plan is filled with natural light, enhanced by skylights and sun tunnels throughout. The kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, complete with stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, and a spacious eat-in island, plus a dining area with a custom built-in banquette. With two living areas and two stone fireplaces, there's room to gather and unwind. Built-in cabinetry adds both charm and functionality throughout the home. Two bedrooms feature ensuite bathrooms, including a primary suite with private walk-out access to an outdoor deck. Additional highlights include main-level laundry, a 2-car garage, and recent improvements to the roof and hot water heating system. The fully fenced backyard offers a patio, storage shed, and plenty of space to enjoy Colorado living, while the front yard is framed by mature trees and established gardens, complemented by classic stone wainscoting. Location, lifestyle, and livability - this is Fort Collins at its best.
