Sit on the huge deck and listen to the tranquil sounds of Lewstone Creek as it flows by the front of the property.

In the summer, you will be surrounded by gorgeous wildflowers and down the driveway is a stunning wild raspberry field. In the fall, you'll be amazed by the aspen trees changing colors all over the property. Over 2 acres of fenced in yard - great for your pets. If you are interested in having livestock and/or poultry, the entire property has weld wire pens and barbed wire perimeter fences. Plum, pear, and apple trees were planted next to the driveway to start the beginnings of a beautiful orchard.

Speaking of water, there's plenty with a well and multiple natural springs on the property. Ample parking with an attached 2 car tandem garage and an oversized 2 car detached garage located near the front of the property. There's an automatic gate at the entrance to the property for security. We haven't even gotten to the adorable home, which was converted from a metal building or the two possible building sites already set up on the property. Plus you'll be close to all the wonderful outdoor amenities the area has to offer - including Lory State Park, Horsetooth Reservoir, Red Feather Lakes, Mishawaka, and the Poudre River!
