Northern Colorado Homes Worth Millions

Sometimes I drive by a mega mansion and think, "Wow, that would be cool". And then I get home to my cookie-cutter builder-grade home and cry in my car before going in.

If you want to sit in your car and cry too, here is a list of the most expensive houses in Colorado.

Fort Collins

• House #1- Located off Rookery Road, this 12,000-square-foot house gives you plenty of places to hide from your kids. But they won't even want to bother you because they'll be too occupied making the 8 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms messy.

• House #2- This is a brand new build right off of Cub Court in Fort Collins. And at 8,088 square feet, you can entertain your family members visiting from Kansas. With that much square footage, they might get lost and not find you until it's time for them to get on the shuttle and go home. Dang it.
• House #3- With a name like Apple Blossom Lane, you need to just assume there's a very expensive house nearby. Sniff it out. The house is a beautiful 4,300-square-foot luxury home, but the best part of this property is definitely the land it sits on.There's also a private duck pond.
• House #4- Let's take it southeast a little bit and talk about the most expensive house in Greeley. Two words for you: Waterfront estate. And did I forget to mention your very own private skiing lake?

I ate Top Ramen last night.

• House #5- Let's wrap it up by heading back to Fort Collins at a house with incredible mountain views all around the 6,068 square feet of house. This house features 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.

So take a few minutes from your busy day, Google map some mansions in beautiful Northern Colorado, and sit in your car and cry.
