Home Buyer Demand for Wild Pointe Ranch Rides High as First Homes Near Completion
Februrary, 2005: ELIZABETH, COLORADO — The first six of 181 homes planned for construction at Wild Pointe Ranch, including three professionally decorated sales models, are on schedule for April completion as consumer demand intensifies for the unique outdoor lifestyle offered at this 1,131-acre community of single-family residences on large, country lots.
Located in Elizabeth off State Highway 86, west of I-25 and within a 25-minute drive of the Denver Tech Center and the Park Meadows Mall, Wild Pointe Ranch provides an amenity rich, natural environment with 14 miles of hiking, biking and equestrian trails, as well as public and private parkland, including 292 acres of preserved open space and wildlife habitat. Five-acre home sites enable owners to board horses, and enjoy the spectacular vies of the surrounding wooded hills and nearby mountains.
“Wild Pointe Ranch represents the very best of what we like to call the ‘Colorado Lifestyle,’” said Karl Nyquist vice president of Wild Pointe Development Partners. “It’s country living, city close, which accounts for the remarkable pre-construction traffic we’ve experienced. Home sites of this size just minutes from the commercial and service infrastructure that we have in Elizabeth and nearby Denver are rare commodities along the Front Range.”
Priced from the $400s, Wild Pointe Ranch homes are available in ranch or two-story configurations on sites that accommodate walk-out lower levels. Designed by award-winning Karen Keating Architects, six floor plans are rendered in distinctive Prairie Craftsman, Victorian and Country Ranch styles. Homes range from 1,700 to 6,000 square feet, and are offered by Wild Pointe’s exclusive builders, Meridian Homes and Sterling Homebuilders.
Wild Pointe Ranch features paved roads, central water and sewer, underground utilities and a fire protection system, which reduces property insurance rates. In addition, the community has donated land to the Elizabeth Schools District for creation of a K-12 Elbert County Charter School, as well as a 7.5-acre regional park with baseball and soccer field that will be owned and operated by the Elizabeth Parks & Recreation Department. Six additional Wild Pointe Ranch parks and open space will be owned and maintained by the Wild Pointe Ranch Metropolitan District.
“We’re very pleased to provide land for the new school, and the municipal ball fields,” Nyquist said. “These in combination with Wild Pointe’s beautiful natural features, including streams, springs, ponds and unique geological formation, add real value for the surrounding community and a rare lifestyle opportunity for residents.”
