Getting your player ready...
Everybody knows that Stapleton is now Denver’s most popular new home area – and as new neighborhoods there have moved north of I-70 to Conservatory Green, you can’t find new homes in the original Stapleton anymore for prices under $350,000. Except that you can. KB Home’s Paired Homes at Stapleton – two homes together, each with basement option and 2-car attached garage – can put you into Stapleton’s new neighborhood near Bluff Lake Nature Center, from the $280,000s.
KB Home (its paired-home Villa collection has been the top seller at Stapleton for years now) has 58 home sites at Stapleton’s Bluff Lake neighborhood, eight of which were released two weeks ago; but four have already sold – three homes last week alone. KB Home’s Todd Middendorp will give you a half dozen reasons why these are selling so fast – not just price, but the location, easily accessible to the Sand Creek Regional Greenway trail as it wraps scenic Bluff Lake and its nature center – only five minutes (an easy bike ride) from the new University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus at Fitzsimons, where several KB Home buyers work. Homebuyers appreciate all that Stapleton has to offer south of I-70, with a new Town Center and grocery store in planning, and new Isabella Bird K-thru-8 School set to open next fall, directly across from KB Home’s sites. But Stapleton also works great for commutes to DIA, the Tech Center, and downtown Denver – including easy access to sports and other attractions in LoDo. KB Home’s paired home designs will allow you a low-maintenance lifestyle and a private side yard that’s big enough for outdoor-living, and/or giving your dog a little room. You can tour the models (at MLK Blvd and Uinta) and Todd Middendorp will show you the new home sites that are available today; along with a few homes that can deliver soon – a 3-bedroom-plus-loft home, 1,750 square feet, with full basement, fireplace, 2-car garage, with an engineered hardwood floor throughout the main-floor entertaining area – set for move in next month. It’s priced at $360,000; along with another home for June delivery at only $325,000. Not surprisingly, several recent buyers have been families that have rented in Stapleton for years – taking advantage of these prices to own a home at not much more than it costs for rent, around $2,200 a month, HOA included. To reach the models from Quebec at Martin Luther King, head east on MLK a half mile to Uinta, right across MLK from Stapleton’s iconic airport control tower and turn right.
