Escape to a private paradise that masterfully blends serene seclusion with modern convenience. This stunning 13.5-acre estate is more than a property-it's a meticulously crafted experience, offering a perfect fusion of rustic Colorado charm and sophisticated luxury. It's a rare opportunity to own a veritable piece of heaven, designed for those who refuse to compromise. Centered around spring-fed "Hinkley Lake," this is a true sanctuary. A well-maintained trail encircles the shoreline, perfect for morning hikes with your dog or evening horseback rides. The only sounds are the gentle water and the calls of eagles and songbirds, all just steps from your back door. The crown jewel of the estate is its incredible, versatile barn. Currently a premium dog kennel, its potential is limitless. It can be effortlessly converted into a premier equestrian facility, a massive workshop, an artist's studio, or an entertainment venue. Fully heated and featuring an office, bathroom, and kitchenette, it's a turn-key solution for any visionary. Combined with fenced pastures and a riding arena, it's perfect for animal companions or grand projects. The spacious, sun-drenched residence is designed for living well. Beautiful hardwood floors flow throughout the main level. The great room features a cozy, stone fireplace, while the kitchen is a chef's delight with a breathtaking picture window framing the lake. The luxurious master suite is a private haven with a romantic fireplace and a spa-like ensuite bathroom, offering serene, private views of the water. Outdoor living is equally curated. Enjoy morning coffee on the covered front porch with stunning western sunsets, or host unforgettable gatherings on the expansive back deck overlooking mature trees and the shimmering lake. This property offers the best of both worlds: the total peace of a 13.5-acre estate, just 15 minutes from vibrant downtown Fort Collins and Timnath. You'll have easy access to top-rated schools, shopping, and dining.
