Southshore is a waterside master planned community located in southeast Aurora, which overlooks the Aurora Reservoir. This community was developed by John Laing Homes and Village Homes. The community was named the "National Master Planned Community of the Year" by the National Sales & Marketing Council of the National Association of Homebuilders, or the NAHB. This is the first development in Colorado to win this designation.
The community has an ominous 11,000 square foot lake house with a theater, gym, fitness room, and library. Outside the lake house is a salt water infinity pool, volleyball area, and fire pit. A great place to spend time with friends and neighbors! Other neighborhood features include a four acre scenic lake (kayak friendly), parks, trails, gate access to Aurora Reservoir, and...well, maybe you should just go see! You will likely fall in love with the community, as many have.
Home facts: Homes range in size from approximately 1600 to 3800 square feet and are priced from the low 300K's. Custom homes start in the 800K's. There are still lake front lots available as well as some of the outstanding homes from the 2007 Parade of Homes. Always feel free to contact me if you would like to take a peek at this 'lifestyle' living.

Bike Path/Aurora Reservoir
I drove through the luxury waterfront community of Beacon Point in Aurora, Colorado today (near Smoky Hill and Arapahoe Parkway), in order to access one of the handful of gates granting access to Aurora Reservoir. These gates provide easy access to the Reservoir, whether on bike or on foot; much quicker and easier than driving to the main entrance.
Have you been to Beacon Point? If so, let me know your impressions. I think it is an impressive community, with sweeping views of the lake, and in close proximity to Southland's Mall (popular new outdoor mall), Cherry Creek Schools, and a major highway (E-470). Popular Park Meadows Mall and Denver International Airport are an approximate 20-30 minutes drive time from the neighborhood. Below is some additional information regarding Beacon Point:
Amenities:
Prices of homes range from the low $300's up to the low $600's. There are some existing water front lots available. Land values are reasonable, so you can get a great deal for your money.
Homes located in Beacon Point
If you would like me to obtain additional information for you or would like to look at any of the homes in Beacon Point or any other community is South Aurora, feel free to contact me at any time, as I live and work primarily in this area. After looking at homes, maybe we could take a bike ride around the Aurora Reservoir!

Congratulations to Aurora for winning the 2008 All-American City Award. Aurora is one of ten cities in the United States to win the award in 2008. The award is given to communities that demonstrate an ability to address serious challenges with strategies that promote cooperation between private, public and non-profit sectors.
The President of the National Civic League, Gloria Rubio-Cortes, stated 'These communities really give us hope...because they show others what can happen when people roll up their sleeves and work together."
I live and work primarily in Aurora, and I am very proud to do so. If you take a look at Aurora now, it is filled with attractive neighborhoods, new commercial development (i.e., Southlands outdoor shopping mall), recreation (Aurora Reservoir), great open space areas, and MUCH more!. Come take a look!

Denver City Council will vote on the rezoning applications in the Sloan Lake and West Highlands neighborhoods after a public hearing on April 28th. The hearing is scheduled for 5:30 PM in the City Council chambers.
The Denver Board of REALTORS generally opposes involuntary "downzonings". Downzoning from R-2 to R-1 limits potential use of the property and could negatively impact values. Duplex properties are very popular in these neighborhoods and have always been common. Some of the new contemporary styles can draw higher than average demand, evident in marketing time and price. Keeping the zoning as R-2 will help retain character, appeal and owner/builder flexibility.
