This 40 acre parcel is a 20-minute drive to downtown Fort Collins. Located in the coveted Cherokee Hills subdivision this parcel is slightly elevated enough to see the snow-capped Continental Divide and the Red Mountain Open Space to the north. The land is full of unique mineral deposits, massive round granite boulders that make for fantastic exploring and grassy meadow-like areas for a picnic. On the north end of the lot, there is a driveway already cut in that leads to the best building envelope on the land. Here in this spot, there are numerous boulder outcroppings, wildflowers, pinion pines and a hand-dug trailhead that wraps around the property. This trailhead is roughly a mile loop and is specific to this property. It is private and leads you to the wildlife that calls this 40 acres home. On any given day you will see mule deer, bobcat, migrating birds and simple creatures pollinating the wildflowers in the area. It's quiet, private and a sanctuary of your own...minutes from the chaos of town. There are three specific areas that have been Dowsed for a well (ask for details). Welcome Home! It's Spring and these 40 acres are stunning so make this your paradise. Minutes from town but miles away from it all. Pack your tent and imagine your custom home built here while you are gazing up at the stars. There is no other lot like this in Northern Colorado.
