About This Property

There are places you visit, and then there are places that change your pace the moment you arrive. Surrounded by a quiet, established forest beneath Colorado's wide open skies, this enchanting retreat feels truly removed from the outside world. Set on approximately six acres with open zoning, the land is wrapped in mature trees that create privacy, stillness, and a deep connection to nature. A trail leads directly from the property, inviting daily walks and peaceful exploration right outside your door. The custom-built residence is warm and inviting, anchored by a Rumford fireplace designed to efficiently heat the home while creating a natural gathering place for long conversations and quiet evenings. The home was thoughtfully crafted with intention and offers the next owner the rare opportunity to complete and personalize it. Beyond the main home, the property unfolds like a fairytale. A whimsical custom castle emerges from the forest, ideal as an art or music studio or creative retreat. A fully finished gypsy wagon adds charm and character. Water is supplied by a 1200-gallon cistern (2019) and a septic system (2019)is in place, supporting a self-sufficient lifestyle aligned with the land. Surrounded by lakes, hiking, camping, and open space, the setting offers views toward Longs Peak and Rocky Mountain National Park. Despite its secluded, forested feel, Fort Collins is approximately 45 minutes away and Denver roughly two hours away. This is not simply a home. It is a forest sanctuary filled with imagination, freedom, and possibility, waiting for its next chapter.
