DENVER – When Village Homes created its elegant Haven Collection of new homes, hopes ran high that the versatile designs would capture the hearts of home buyers. What transpired far exceeded the award-winning builder’s wildest expectations.

The Haven Collection has become one of the most successful series of new homes introduced along Colorado’s Front Range, and two brand new designs were recently added to the distinctive collection. Today, the Haven Collection is fulfilling the home buying dreams of discriminating buyers at five communities located throughout metro Denver, Longmont and Fort Collins. Haven as defined by Webster’s Dictionary is a place of retreat, safety and security. You’ll feel all that and more with the elegance and comfort of a gorgeous new home from this exciting collection.

The Haven Collection of traditional single-family homes offers buyers a choice of up to seven designs ranging in size from 2,363 to 2,796 square feet of finished living space. Base priced from the $330s to the $360s (may vary by community), these homes offer maximum livability, elegant styling and open floorplans for today’s active lifestyle. Owners will find new homes with main floor dens and up to five bedrooms, and the luxurious master suites showcase pampering five-piece baths.

Select homes are highlighted by a convenient main floor master suite, a multi-purpose loft, 3-3/4 baths, and a three-car tandem garage. Each plan is appointed with a wide array of included features that transcends the mainstream, and outstanding options which help you personalize your new home to make it distinctively “yours.” In some communities Village Homes also offers optional basement finishing..

The two brand new designs from the Haven Collection are represented as professionally decorated models at Village Homes Watercolor neighborhood in The Meadows at Historic Castle Rock™. The Del Mar is a three-bedroom plan featuring a study, 2-1/2 or three baths, and 2,370 square feet of finished living space. Owners will enjoy a three-car tandem garage, a fourth bedroom option, and a fabulous great room. The Santa Clara is distinguished by an elegant main floor master suite, a unique reading loft, two secondary bedrooms, and 2,505 finished square feet.

Featured homes include a new Somerville from the Heritage Collection offering a main floor master suite with two additional bedrooms, 2-1/2 baths and 2,295 finished square feet. This gorgeous design is appointed with cherry cabinets, stainless steel appliances and handsome hardwood floors. In addition, a new Gaylord from the Encore Collection, scheduled for completion in March, offers three bedrooms, 2-1/2 baths, 1,907 finished square feet, a two-car attached garage and a wealth of designer upgrades throughout. The Gaylord was honored with the 2005 Home of the Year award in its price range by the Home Builder's Association of Metro Denver at the annual Bar Awards celebration.
