This is the one-acre-plus property many buyers look for but rarely find inside the metro: a solid raised-ranch home offering practical living spaces, a large level corner lot, and genuine equine/hobby-farm potential. Situated at the end of a quiet closed street, 13952 W 78th Pl delivers privacy, views of the foothills, and the flexibility to add the shop, barn or stables you've been planning.
Step inside to discover a generous main level with an open living/dining flow and a well-proportioned kitchen that includes plentiful cabinet storage and a pantry — spaces ideal for everyday life and entertaining. The main floor contains three bedrooms and two full bathrooms, while the walkout lower level expands the usable footprint with a large family room warmed by a wood-burning stove, a full bathroom, a bedroom with full-window egress, and a very large non-conforming bedroom at the hall end. A substantial unfinished room — already roughed for a closet — provides a ready workshop, tack room, or the bones for an additional finished bedroom.
Outside, the freshly painted deck is a front-row seat to the pasture and mountain vista; the listing specifically highlights the property's suitability for horses, alpacas, goats and other small livestock. The parcel is fully fenced, has mature setback buffer, and offers multiple logical spots to site an oversized garage or barn. Practical upgrades— a new boiler and a new water filtration system—give buyers confidence in near-term mechanical reliability. Utilities include a private well and septic system with electric and natural gas connected.
For buyers who prioritize acreage without sacrificing access to suburban amenities, this home checks both boxes. Low-traffic placement, no HOA, and the rare opportunity to own a 1.24-acre lot this close to the Denver metro make this an appealing prospect for hobby-farm owners, car enthusiasts seeking a shop site, and anyone looking to expand living space with modest finishing work in the basement.
