Denver metro's new luxury residential development draws interest from notable regional firms to create custom designs for one-of-a-kind project
ARVADA, Colo., Feb. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Canyon Pines, a luxury fully custom residential development located in an accessible area of Colorado's Front Range, has partnered with over 10 of Boulder and Denver's premier architecture and design-build firms to develop unique lot-specific design concepts and renderings to bring the vision of the project to life. Situated amongst over 150 acres on Coal Creek Peak and surrounded by more than 1,200 acres of open space, Canyon Pines offers an architecturally diverse opportunity for homeowners and architects alike.
"This architectural endeavor stemmed from our relationship with Semple Brown, who collaborated on our design guidelines that ensure careful integration of every home with the land," says Debra Wyatte, SVP of Community Experience, Canyon Pines Development Company. "As we integrate with the modern design community in Boulder and Denver, other firms approached us with their desire to showcase concepts as well. The unique topography of Canyon Pines presents a challenging design opportunity and creative outlet for firms who want to build amongst like-minded visionaries. The outcome has been mutually beneficial—the firms have produced stunning designs inspired by the unique aspects of their respective lots, and we are fortunate to showcase an array of different styles and possibilities for future owners."
The highly anticipated luxury collection of homes will comprise 93 private retreats between Boulder and Golden, each offering access to acres of open space, an alpine experience, and sweeping views overlooking Denver and the Great Plains to the East and the walls and ridges of Coal Creek Canyon to the West. The homesites range between $495,000 to $1.4MM+, with pricing based on acreage, elevation, topographical features, and views. Homeowners can select from six architectural styles, including modern, prairie, cabin, homestead, ranch, or vernacular to complement the site-specific topography, trees, and landscape of each lot. Ranging from 0.5 to over 2 acres of rugged land with rocky outcroppings in Coal Creek Canyon to wide-open lots with space for extensive landscaping, Canyon Pines is the ideal canvas to create a custom residence.
Construction is well underway in the community with the "Accelerated Home" anticipated for completion by end of year as well as other private residences that are either under construction or in the design process. Additional approved designs and styles from an array of partners include:
