The Colorado home once belonging to former Colorado State coach Jim McElwain is officially for sale for a cool $1.3 million.

McElwain, who spent three seasons as the head coach of the Rams, left to take the head coaching position at Florida. Now he has to unload his four-bedroom, six-bathroom, 7,174-square-foot abode that sits on 2.3 acres in Fort Collins.

That selling price is actually $150,000 more than for what the home was purchased in 2012, according to the Fort Collins Coloradoan.

The home includes a five-car garage, indoor and outdoor kitchens, a theater, a private access hot tub and few fireplaces for those cold Colorado winter nights. It also includes several Colorado State logos for the Rams lover in your life.

Unfortunately for McElwain, his is one of a handful of million-dollar homes for sale in the area and the average price for a four-bedroom home in Fort Collins is $329,900.

McElwain probably needs that home to sell quickly so he can start eating into the $2 million he owes Colorado State as part of his $7.5 million buyout.

Here are a few pictures of the home from Realtor.com:
