The most affordable home in Dean Acres just became even more compelling. Tucked into the peaceful, rarely available Dean Acres community, this remodeled brick ranch brings a coastal Cape Cod vibe to the foothills of Fort Collins. From hand-crafted trim to light-filled living spaces, the home blends modern comfort with classic character-just steps from private Lee Lake. Imagine summer mornings on the dock, neighbors' canoes gently lining the shoreline, and evening walks along the secluded lakeside trail-this is lakeside living at its most relaxed. Set on a generous quarter-acre lot in unincorporated Larimer County, you'll love the space and quiet while still being minutes from Old Town, Horsetooth Reservoir, and Lory State Park. The home itself offers thoughtful updates throughout: a fully renovated kitchen, a remodeled bathroom, new flooring, fresh doors, and charming Cape-style finishes that create an inviting, lived-in warmth. The single full bath is conveniently located in the bedroom wing, serving as an ideal layout for daily living or guests. Looking to add even more value? Consider combining two of the bedrooms to create a true primary suite-complete with a walk-in closet and en-suite bath. The layout and lot provide the flexibility for future enhancements, while the current design is move-in ready and filled with potential. Outside, a beautifully landscaped and fully fenced backyard offers a private retreat for relaxing or entertaining, while the oversized two-car garage ensures you have room for gear, tools, and toys. Whether you're launching a canoe at sunset or biking Overland Trail, this is Colorado living with a coastal twist-at a price point you won't find again in Dean Acres. Don't miss the rare opportunity to own the most affordable home with private lake access in Fort Collins.
