Tonight is the First Friday Gallery Walk in downtown Fort Collins. This is a great opportunity to get out on the town and mingle with local artists of our community! Downtown galleries stay open late (5pm to 9pm) and some even offer free snacks and beverages.
Located just southeast of where the Poudre River runs under Overland Trail, Poudre Overlook is a small enclave of modern, craftsman style homes built by PLS Homes between 2004 and 2008. These well appointed homes sit on ¼ acre lots. Although a few ranches were built, most are 2 story but all have 3 car garages. Poudre Overlook is an excellent jumping off point for outdoor excursions near and far. Ride your bike to Lions Park, hop on the Poudre River Trail and you can ride all the way to Old Town and beyond. Over the next few years the Poudre Trail will extend past I-25, all the way to Greeley for more than 30 miles of hiking and biking trail along the Poudre River. The Poudre Overlook neighborhood also provides easy access to the popular Foothills trail, the CSU Equine Center, Hughes Stadium, Horsetooth Mountain Open Space, Lory State Park and a myriad of City of Fort Collins Open Spaces. Ready to get out of town and into the mountains? Since the Poudre Overlook neighborhood is on the Northwest edge of town you’re just 12 minutes to the mouth of the Poudre Canyon and Roosevelt National Forest where you can go get lost in over 108,000 acres of wilderness.

Bucking Horse & Jessup Farm Artisan Village, Development News
A unique master planned community called Bucking Horse is being proposed for a 160 acre tract near the Sidehill neighborhood (northeast of Drake Road and Timberline Road). In addition to single family housing and townhomes, developer Gino Campana of Bellisimo, Inc. has proposed an artisan village of “healthy” retailers called Jessup Farm with a winery, farmer’s market, cheesery, bakery, coffee roastery, microbrewery, farm-to-fork restaurant, bicycle shop, and yoga studio. Campana plans to rehabilitate the 128-year-old Johnson Farm and Jessup Farm buildings currently located on the tract, maintaining their historical charm as an important aspect of the development. The proposed project will also provide a variety of public community spaces including a horse arena, community gardens, green spaces and trails throughout the development. The overall aim for the project is to promote community living and a healthy lifestyle for residents and visitors alike.
South College Heights is a neighborhood popular with home buyers who are drawn to Old Town Fort Collins but need more square footage at an affordable price and don’t want to sacrifice on location. South College Heights fits the bill beautifully. It’s still within easy biking distance to Old Town Fort Collins; just hop on Stover Street for a pleasant ride with light car traffic. Some argue South College Heights is more convenient than Old Town because of it’s proximity to grocery stores like Whole Foods, Sprouts Market and other bigger box shopping conveniences. Not to mention that the neighborhood is a mere 1.5 miles from the Colorado State University campus. You’ll also enjoy easy access to Spring Park which includes two ball fields, a sport field, playground and picnic shelter. From there you can hop on the Spring Creek Trail which winds nearly 7 miles through many mid-Fort Collins parks and ends at the expansive Spring Creek Park and Pineridge Natural Area.

The Dry Creek Subdivision is a new development located near the intersection of Mulberry and Timberline. Construction began in late 2011 and already the neighborhood has generated significant interest. Truly impressive, panoramic views of the foothills (and even a few snow capped peaks) create a wonderful backdrop for these competitively priced craftsman style homes built by Encore Homes LLC. Although few people will recognize the name Encore Homes, this local builder has developed several popular Northern Colorado communities–including the Fairways at Highland Meadows in Windsor under the name Hartford Homes.
