Lennar – Builder not sure of release time yet, coming soon I imagine.
Creekstone Builders – Working on an update here.
Builder Lot Updates:
Infinity Home Collection now selling in North End!
Infinity is going to have some of the best lots from a size and mountain view perspective in the whole neighborhood. I’ll be doing an update video with them on their Luxe and Vive series in the next week or so and will share it with you. In the Alto series (think rooftop decks!) they have lots available now and you can see those here.
Parkwood Homes Continues to Sell Quickly
Parkwood has been selling their lots at a real fast pace, especially in their single family homes series, as buyers see this as one of their last chances to build a semi-custom home in Stapleton. They have 3 lots available in the single family home series, 3 in the Painted Ladies series (facing the amazing park and pool!) and 4 available in their Beacon Hill town home collection. Here is a page on their website where you can scroll down and see a really handy map they put out that shows the available lots. We also wanted to pass along the base prices and plans on the single family homes and if you need helping budgeting what they would cost “all in” Mariel Ross from our team has built up some amazing knowledge you can tap into. You can reach her at mariel@focus-realtors.com.
Thrive Homes Builders Release Includes their Larger Floor Plans
Thrive has just released a new batch of lots in their “Vita” collection and buyers now have access to contract on a Plan 3, Plan 4 or Plan 5. The Plan 4 has been a best seller and hasn’t been available for a long time so jump on that one quick if you’ve been waiting for it. Here are the floor plans. (Side note: We live in a Thrive from this series and love it!)
North End “Nuggets” to share with you:
KB Home is being proactive and offering some really helpful long term interest rate locks for their buyers. Lock your rate in up front and don’t stress about rate changes while the home is being built. This applies to their paired homes and single family Wildflower collection, which are both available now. (not applicable to Starlight series)
The developer is hard at work on the large green space between Beeler Park and North End. It’s looking great with trees, sod, boulders, sidewalks, etc all being installed. Check out the pic of this new playground going in.

A “wee cottage” from Boulder Creek Builders in Beeler Park just became available and it’ll be ready to close in the next 2 months. These sold out right away so this is a rare chance for a buyer looking for a single family home in the $430k range. Here’s a post and video we just did about this opportunity.
Some builders have some “specs” (meaning homes at or near completion for quick move in!) in Beeler Park. These “hidden inventory homes” (we call them that because some are not even listed in the MLS) are perfect for buyers that want to move in quick but can’t find the right resale home. Thrive has two “EDG” plans in their ZEN series, and a handful of lots in the Panacea series. Lennar has 3 town homes in this series they’re ready to sell. Wonderland Homes has a handful of single family and town homes ready to go. You can see those specs here. One of my favorites is 5810 Boston St, it’s sleek, has a great open floor plan and it’s complete this week so you could be in before Christmas! Compared to what you would get in the high $500k’s in the resale market I think this one should sell soon.
Lastly, builders are starting to release their lots in the Bluff Lake neighborhood of Stapleton, South of I-70. There will be homes in the Denver and Aurora parts of the area so some homes are in the Stapleton DPS schools and others are in APS. Quick FB Live video to learn more.
