With VIEWS you have to see to believe; perched atop the peaceful heights of Rist Canyon, this exceptional mountain property offers seclusion, scenery, and smart updates. Set on 43 private acres with full southwest exposure, this unique 2-story octagon home with walkout basement combines energy efficiency, flexible layout, and expansive Rocky Mountain views all less than 20 miles away from the heart of Fort Collins! Inside, enjoy a bright, open main level with vaulted ceilings and massive windows that bring the outdoors in. The primary suite includes a freshly updated ensuite bath with a soaking tub and a huge walk-in closet. There are 3 total bedrooms, plus a top-level office ideal for remote work, a large rec room, and a sun-filled bonus room perfect for a hot tub or greenhouse space. Built to perform, this home includes spray foam insulation, a high-efficiency furnace, new tankless water heater, and Mitsubishi mini-split systems for zoned heating and cooling. A 3-year-old Class 4 impact-resistant roof and newly installed metal roof on the detached garage add long-term durability. The detached 576 sq ft garage includes a finished loft above-already set up with its own septic & power systems-ready to become an ADU, studio, or second home office. Plenty of space for animals, gear, and toys. Wraparound deck, cozy wood stove, lots of sunlight, and total tranquility. Move-in ready and built to last. Hike your own hills, stargaze without light pollution, and wake up to sunrises that will stop you in your tracks. You'll never want to leave. And honestly? You won't need to.
