A west Fort Collins suburb steps away from City Park
Located 3 miles west of downtown Fort Collins, Mulberry Hill is a small residential community within minutes of highly rated public schools and the expansive City Park. Old Town Fort Collins is a short drive away and is full of local shops and popular restaurants. With arborous street names and mature trees lining the lanes, most of the neighborhood has a quiet, laid-back feel while still being close to the city’s active downtown district. “The area surrounding City Park is one of the most desirable markets in Fort Collins,” says Ian Johnston, a Realtor with C3 Real Estate Solutions who has lived in the city for 13 years. “There’s a diverse housing stock and you’re close to the city’s biggest park while still being close to the charming streets of Old Town.”
