Fort Collins Home for Sale with Space and Flexibility
This Fort Collins home for sale offers more than a simple bedroom count. At $475,000, 1624 Enfield Street gives buyers five rooms, an updated kitchen, two levels of living space, and a fenced backyard. It also sits in the established Rossborough neighborhood.
For a first-time buyer, the number of separate rooms opens up possibilities from day one. There is space for everyday living, working from home, hosting guests, pursuing hobbies, or sharing the home with roommates.
The property is being sold as a short sale. The sellers have submitted the required paperwork to the lender. Now, the home needs an offer so the lender-review process can move forward. Lender approval is still required, and timing can vary.

A Fort Collins Home for Sale with More Ways to Use the Space
The main living areas feel connected and practical. In addition, the opened-up kitchen keeps the center of the home feeling bright. The kitchen was refreshed in 2025 with painted cabinetry and newer appliances.
The main floor supports everyday living. Meanwhile, the second floor offers a more private area for work, guests, or another use. That separation can be helpful when several people share a home.
Five bedrooms create options that are difficult to find at this price point. One room could become an office, while another could serve as a guest room, workout space, or creative studio.
The benefit is choice. The next owner can shape the rooms around life now, then adjust them as work, hobbies, guests, or household needs change.
Could This Home Work for House Hacking?
A house hack usually means living in a home while renting part of it. The goal is to use rental income to help offset housing costs.
Because this home has bedrooms on two levels, it may appeal to someone exploring that strategy. An owner might live upstairs and rent rooms downstairs. Another buyer might simply share the home with roommates.
The layout may also work for a traditional long-term rental.
Useful Updates Where They Matter
The kitchen refresh included painted cabinetry, newer appliances, and a more open connection to the living area. As a result, the main gathering spaces feel less divided.
The stairs were replaced in 2026. In addition, the whole-house fan helps move air during warmer weather. These updates add practical value without removing the opportunity to personalize the home.
A Backyard Ready for Real Life
The newer patio creates space for a grill, an outdoor table, or a few comfortable chairs. Beyond the patio, the fenced backyard provides room to spend time outside.
Raised garden beds are already in place. Therefore, a future owner can grow vegetables, herbs, or flowers without starting the garden area from scratch.
Living in Rossborough | Fort Collins
Rossborough offers an established west Fort Collins setting with mature landscaping. The neighborhood also provides convenient access to parks, trails, shopping, restaurants, public transportation, and Colorado State University. Rossborough Park is nearby, and the home has no HOA.
Why This Home Stands Out
Flexible living spaces in Fort Collins at this price don’t come along often – especially under $500,000!
This property is being offered as a short sale, creating an opportunity for buyers who are willing to be a little patient during the purchase process. The short sale has already been initiated, and an experienced team is working closely with the lender to help move the transaction forward.
For the right buyer, this could be an opportunity to build equity while purchasing a home in one of Fort Collins’ most desirable locations.
Lauren’s Take
What stands out to me is how many paths this home offers at $475,000. It can be a comfortable first home, a shared home that helps reduce monthly costs, or a property with long-term rental potential.
A first-time buyer may want an office and guest room. An owner-occupant may want roommates to help with the mortgage. An investor may see long-term rental potential. The flexible layout allows each buyer to match the rooms to their priorities.
I also want buyers to understand the short sale without getting spooked by the label. The seller paperwork has been submitted. The home is available. Now it needs a buyer who recognizes the fit and can allow time for lender approval.
