Colorado Small Development Responds to Consumers Request for Community

By
Real Estate Agent with The Platinum Group Realtors

Lago Vistas is the example of what home owners are looking for in todays market.  Buying land and building a new home is a dream for many people.  For others, the opportunity to buy a brand new home, such as a Parade house, gives them instant gratification with a lot of upgrades that they might otherwise not have had.  What is new is the desire to buy, build and live in a development that has a strong sense of community.  Buyers are finding and expanding this sense of community in smaller developments such as Lago Vistas.

With only 50 total properties, each five acres in size minimum, there are only 50 possible owners.  Lago Vistas is unique from the standpoint of offering acreage with all the amenities of city life:  city water, natural gas, fiber optic cable (and the system/company in place to use it today) and recreation within 5 minutes vs. a half our drive.  Walk to the 68 acre lake for fishing or a 27 hole golf course is 5 minutes away by car.
20 minutes up the road is millions of acres of national forest for hiking, exploring the outdoors, hunting, snow mobile trails in the winter, 4-wheeling in the summer and a large high mountain lake for fun.  Not having to  live in high altitude weather but having access to it is a popular amenity.

The desire for smaller developments and more of a community is a national trend and Colorado's Lago Vistas is the answer here.    Affordable with good access, great infrastructure , plenty to do and award winning homes the stage is set and the community has started.  There are already 24 home owners and four homes built.  Three home owners plan to break ground within the next year on their homes at Lago Vistas.
