William Lyon Homes has a setting in southeast Aurora where its larger home collections are matched to a lineup of amenities unlike anything else in the south metro area — with a private lake, Cherry Creek Schools and a community clubhouse that has everything from a resort-styled saltwater pool to managed kids’ activities and even a YMCA-run daycare.
At Southshore, homeowners are also adjacent to recreational activities in the vast parklands that surround Aurora Reservoir, with its sport fishing, sailing and nine miles of bike trails — right beside the neighborhood.Southshore residents are in the Cherry Creek School District, very close to the Fox Ridge Middle School/Cherokee Trail High School campus.
Prices start in the $400s.“When families from outside the area discover us, they often had no idea there was anything like this around Denver,” says Dennis Gainer, who’ll show you the Leighton and Wheatley model homes from the Artistry Collection — each with a covered deck that overlooks private SENAC Lake, where residents enjoy paddleboats and scenic trails.
William Lyon Homes has homes that are ready or near-ready for move-in now at Southshore — some with the same accents you’ll see featured in the models.Those homes include a four-bedroom Leighton with over 3,000 square feet of finished space, plus a three-car garage and a day-lit walkout basement; and, a Signature 3802 plan with a four-car garage, including a carriage bay, that overlooks the lake.All come with a three-year warranty/service package, one that sales manager Scott Beaumont says sets William Lyon Homes apart from other builders.
You’ll see families out using the trails in this community, and you’ll hear about Southshore’s Cape Cod-style Lakehouse community center, where they have a club-like setting above the reservoir with a saltwater pool (no chlorine!), fitness center, daycare facility for kids and family activities planned by a YMCA-trained staff.While driving into Southshore, you’ll see the new King Soopers “Marketplace” store thatap arrived at Smoky Hill Road and Arapahoe, along with some new dining and a bakery.Southlands Mall is just around the corner.
You’ll find Southshore has a very workable commute into tech campuses in the South I-25 corridor via E-470, as well as to DIA.To visit the models and all of William Lyon’s homes nearing completion, take Smoky Hill Road east from E-470, past Southlands, two miles to Arapahoe Road, turn left, and continue past the Cherry Creek schools to S. Powhaton Road.Turn left and proceed three long blocks to Southshore Parkway and turn right to S. Quantock Way, opposite the trailhead into the reservoir.
