About This Home

Presenting, for only its second time on the market, 5424 N CR 3. This is more than a home-it's a legacy property built for those who value nature, privacy, and a deep connection to the land. Encompassing 44+/- acres of pristine pastureland the property stretches nearly a mile from end to end with unending mountain views from every corner. The home is located at the end of a half-mile driveway that separates it from the 300-acre public Cobb Lake SWA which provides endless opportunities for hunting, dog training, hiking and wildlife viewing. The 3 bed 2 bath house was perfectly situated to showcase the stunning views of Longs Peak and the snowcapped ranges through every western window. Beautifully updated kitchen with Tharp custom knotty alder cabinets and striking live-edge wood accents. Incredible stone wraps a wood burning fireplace for cozy warmth in the winter. A 545 SF covered breezeway blends indoor and outdoor living with uninterrupted mountain views and connects the house to the oversized 2 car garage. This curated acreage is nestled between the Cowan Lateral and the Windsor Ditch with ditch roads that border the property providing nearly 2 miles of trails, perfect for horseback rides, exercising the dogs, or a morning stroll. No other property includes this diversity of habitat -- from hay pastures to cattail sloughs, fruit trees to mature stands of cultivated pines, and a seasonal pond create a truly unique offering. Equestrians will love the 2 Acre fenced pasture, round pen, loafing shed and potential for tack room and 2 stalls off the shop and plenty of room for future arenas. A 3-dog kennel run, homing pigeon loft, flight pens and proximity to the SWA make this a bird dog lover's paradise. A 965 SF detached shop includes insulated and heated workshop, tractor barn, and bird raising brooder house for game birds or poultry. See for yourself how this property truly embodies the endless opportunity of outdoor life in Northern Colorado.
