Builder John Keith was first to bring patio homes to Lowry…first to bring solar homes to Stapleton…and now he’s all by himself once again with a new ranch-style, low-maintenance patio design, and you can see it at a Lowry grand opening.
Project Manager Mario Mendoza and Sales Rep Judi Phillips inspect Harvard Communities’ new ranch patio model at Lowry, for today’s opening.
Harvard Communities’ Arbors at Lowry ranks as the only new patio homes being built in the city of Denver today…a design difficult for builders to do, at a time when, despite the slower market, more and more buyers in places like Hilltop and Crestmoor are looking for them.
Keith knows how well patio homes work at Lowry. He created four Harvard enclaves of patio plans in Lowry’s earlier areas and quickly sold out. Harvard’s trendy energy efficiency, meanwhile, grabbed the attention of the National Renewable Energy Lab (NREL) in Golden——and they’re spotlighting Harvard and some large-scale energy companies in a permanent exhibit for the Colorado Convention Center.
Just as with some of his Stapleton homes, Keith’s Lowry models will save around 40% more energy than an average new house. Better yet, if you contract during July on any of the 28 homes he can build in Arbors, Keith will toss in photovoltaic solar panels that will deliver around 25% of your electric needs while everybody else’s bills are going up.
But solar, and the ranch-style floor plan grand opening today, aren’t the only reasons you’d want to be here, Keith said. “Patio homes fill the gap between the true condo lifestyle and the single-family home. They’re called patio homes because of the low-maintenance, but they’re really single-family detached homes. It’s the privacy.”
It’s also the trails and open space——the number-one priority for this buyer, according to Harvard’s research. The Arbor’s ‘East Park’ neighborhood (the last that the Lowry Redevelopment Authority will do) is the very closest to Great Lawn park, the Sports Complex and the trail over the dam. “It’s a great view from up there,” Keith added. “If you’re writing a book on Denver’s ten best trails, it would be on it.”
You’re also going to see terrific finishes, decorating, and a wide-open basement with finish option for a guest suite/bar area. Take Lowry Boulevard east from Quebec a mile to the traffic circle and turn south.
