Homes From the $200s in Highlands Ranch, Colorado

 “The primary reason Shadow Canyon resonates with buyers is that we’re meeting a huge pent-up demand for new, reasonably priced homes in the Highlands Ranch area,” said Lokal Homes’ sales consultant Tyler Gatlin, “And beyond that, they’re actually somewhere you’d be proud to call home. They’re genuinely beautiful, stylish homes. To be anywhere in this price point before now, you either had to settle for something very small or something that needed a lot of work. ”
            Gatlin is speaking about one of Lokal’s newly opened communities in Highlands Ranch, Shadow Canyon, which offers brand new condominiums that range from 810 to 1,227 square feet, have one or two bedrooms, one to two bathrooms and options for covered parking. A small town with big charm, Highlands Ranch has top-ranked schools, higher education and more than 2,000 diverse businesses. Shadow Canyon is just 10 minutes from Park Meadows and just 5 minutes from several golf courses and parks.
            “So far, we’ve seen a mix of first time homebuyers, empty nesters, and investors,” added Gatlin. “Many of the empty nesters are looking to downsize and find something with less maintenance while our first time homebuyers are coming from Denver and surrounding areas where the price of homes are too high.”
            Recently unveiled at Shadow Canyon’s opening is the Kate design, a two-bedroom, two-bath design with a large living room. The kitchen features granite countertops and a center island. The owner’s suite has an oversized walk-in closet and master bath with dual sinks. The home features a laundry as well as a back patio. It is priced from $299,990.
            Three Kate plans are under way, the first of which will be ready for move-in in January. The finished homes will be priced from $302,777 to $318,252.
            Coming soon is the Kyle design, an innovative home featuring a large living room which is open to the dining area and kitchen. Its spacious bathroom includes dual sinks and the laundry area is conveniently located near the generous master bedroom with a walk-in closet. Owners will appreciate a roomy back patio that includes an extra space for storage
            Shadow Canyon comes on the heels of the company’s growing selection of multi-family residences, ideal for first time buyers that are priced in the $200s and $300s. Because of multi-family housing’s shared walls—in addition to the upgraded insulation and windows Lokal uses—homeowners save in utilities costs. Multi-family homes have a smaller footprint, impose less strain on infrastructure and have a lesser environmental impact and many times public transportation is plentiful in urban and infill settings, so homeowners can easily access surrounding amenities.
            Although the homes represent an exceptional value, Gatlin noted that buyers should still look forward to the industry-exceeding level of finishes and craftsmanship found in all Lokal homes. Owners can anticipate features like open kitchen and dining rooms, high-end materials, generous windows for natural light and nine-foot ceilings. Shadow Canyon’s sales and information center is open daily and is located at 4800 Copeland Cir, in Highlands Ranch.
