Not all mid-century homes are created equal. Built in 1965 and thoughtfully renovated in 1992, this custom raised ranch sits on a legal double lot of just over half an acre in desirable mid-town Fort Collins. With over 3,500 finished sq ft, the home blends timeless design, craftsmanship, and modern comfort. A welcoming foyer opens to expansive main-floor windows, a spacious living room with fireplace, and a dining room ideal for gatherings. The sunroom overlooks the tree canopy, while the walk-out basement offers a large family room with a second fireplace. Featuring 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, an office, and flex/craft room, the layout is both functional and versatile. Outdoors, the deck opens to an unbelievably landscaped sanctuary that flows into a private pocket park, creating a unique treehouse effect. With meticulously maintained and updated systems, this truly rare combination of indoor and outdoor living spaces beckons only minutes by foot, bicycle, or car from the places and activities in town that make Fort Collins special.
