Public Remarks: Welcome to one of the most charming and peaceful spots in the sought-after Victorian Gables neighborhood. This brick ranch-style PATIO HOME sits across from Rossborough Park on a quiet street and BACKS TO OPEN GREEN SPACE-no neighbors directly behind. It's the perfect blend of comfort, convenience, and LOW-MAINTENANCE LIVING. Inside, you'll find vaulted ceilings, skylights, and warm hardwood floors that fill the home with NATURAL LIGHT. The open layout connects the kitchen, dining, and living spaces beautifully, centered around a cozy gas fireplace and easy access to the LARGE PRIVATE BACK DECK. The kitchen offers generous counter space, newer stainless-steel appliances, and plenty of storage. This home has been thoughtfully UPDATED with NEW ANDERSON WINDOWS, a NEW INSULATED GARAGE DOOR, and a gorgeous NEW FRONT DOOR with SIDELIGHT that adds both curb appeal and energy efficiency. Even better, the HOA will soon be painting the exterior, and the new owner will have the opportunity to help select the color with their neighbor. The furnace, humidifier, and central A/C are all LESS THAN 6 YEARS OLD, giving you peace of mind for seasons to come. The FINISHED BASEMENT is surprisingly spacious, offering a large rec room, bedroom, bath, and a flexible area that could serve as a home gym, craft space, or office. The GARAGE IS FINISHED, clean, and bright-ready for hobbies or extra storage, including an EV CHARGER on a dedicated breaker. Security system is owned. Step out onto the deck and enjoy QUIET mornings or evening sunsets OVERLOOKING THE PROTECTED GREENBELT. It's a PEACEFUL, easy-to-love setting just minutes from shopping, trails, CSU, and all that midtown Fort Collins has to offer. If you've been waiting for a home that's MOVE-IN READY, well cared for, and truly comfortable year-round - this is the one!
