Breathe in the mountain air and take in the views in this serene 1.5-acre property that borders a national forest and overlooks the Cache la Poudre River! Located at the very start of the Hewlett Gulch trailhead, the setting incorporates a seasonal creek and scenic hiking right outside the front door. A single-level design keeps everyday living convenient inside this mountain retreat. The main living area boasts beamed ceilings and large windows that pull in natural light and frame incredible views of the surrounding hills and forest. At the heart is a floor-to-ceiling, multi-sided petrified wood fireplace centerpiece that anchors the living and dining areas. The kitchen offers a perfect blend of style and function with wraparound granite countertops, modern appliances, and plenty of storage. The primary suite features a spacious walk-in closet and its own ensuite bath and outdoor access, giving you a restful retreat after enjoying the outdoors. Outside, a raised gazebo offers 360-degree views of Colorado's stunning natural landscape. Another unique feature is the raised grassy terrace-the original foundation of a historic home-complete with a stone chimney, the perfect spot for stargazing or sunset dinners. A 712sqft guest cabin gives visitors their own cozy space, great for company, multi-generational family, or even as a creative studio. The oversized 2-car attached garage comes with a workshop area, and an additional storage shed for all your outdoor gear. The house also comes with a 6kg propane backup generator that is wired with a separate circuit for the generator. Additionally, the property features a 5-zone in-ground sprinkler system with 3 heads per zone, ensuring the landscaping is maintained effortlessly. Owned solar panels help power your lifestyle with energy savings and off-grid potential. And best of all, you're just a comfortable 30 minutes away from Fort Collins. No HOA! The square footage includes the 1,504 sq ft home plus the 712sqft guest house.
