Opportunities like this don't come around often-an updated home with a large lot, detached shop, RV parking, and the kind of space and flexibility that's hard to find near Fort Collins. New roof, pre-inspected, & move-in ready! Tucked into the neighborhood with room to breathe around it, the home feels private and a bit removed while still being close to everything. The oversized driveway provides plenty of room for vehicles, trailers, or equipment, and the detached garage/shop is fully equipped with insulation, recessed lighting, and 220 power-ideal for hobbies, storage, or projects. Inside, the home is bright and welcoming with natural light from the large bay window and sliding glass door. Updates throughout include recessed lighting, new fan/light fixtures, and a thoughtfully finished primary bathroom with heated floors, dual shower heads, and a curb-less walk-in shower. The Little Cache la Poudre ditch runs alongside the property adding a sense of openness and tranquility, creating a unique setting that feels like your own stretch of waterfront (water runs seasonally). The fenced backyard offers plenty of space to relax, garden, play, and take in the sunset, and, yes, you can have chickens! Located in Laporte, you'll enjoy a quieter setting with easy access to it all-just minutes to Old Town Fort Collins, Horsetooth Reservoir, Poudre Canyon, and nearby trails. Lions Open Space is a short bike ride away, and Me Oh My Pie is within walking distance for coffee or a quick bite. The house gives you the feeling of quiet, country living without being too far from town.
