Wee-Cottage Model Homes Unveiled in Boulder Creek
Award-winning local homebuilder Boulder Creek Neighborhoods is thrilled to unveil a new wee-Cottage® model home at Rogers Farm in Superior on February 19th. With 25 homes already under contract, there is a demonstrated demand for attainably priced, efficient and cleverly designed homes in Boulder County. In fact, wee-Cottage® is the most “affordable” new, single family home in Boulder County and these cleverly designed floorplans are appealing to a wide range of buyers looking to right size their lives and reduce home maintenance.
“Boulder Creek Neighborhoods has been designing and building inventive lower-maintenance homes for over a decade, and this unconventional home series resonates with people because it offers a single-family home at a lower price point than just about any other new home in the area,” says Boulder Creek Neighborhoods founder and President David Sinkey. “Rogers Farm is a highly desirable location in Boulder County, and every facet of the wee-Cottage has been designed from the start to really create a new segment of the housing market in the region.”
Boulder Creek introduced the wee-Cottage® concept nearly a decade ago in Longmont, Colorado, and has generated incredible demand and interest since, selling more than 200 wee-Cottages® in four neighborhoods across the Front Range. With a continued demand for smaller, lower priced new homes, the company is now expanding to several more locations including Central Park in Denver.
With floorplan offering and pricing varying by community, the wee-Cottage designs range in size between 900 and 1,500 square feet and offer an array of base home and optioned configurations – including a new three-story concept called Cottage Eight. The series offers two- and three-bedroom layouts, with both attached and detached one and two car garages. Fifty-five (55) new wee-Cottages are being built in Rogers Farm. Like all of Boulder Creek’s homes, the wee-Cottage®, series has been created with the guiding principles of energy and resource efficiency and is built with advanced construction materials and techniques that support the goal of lower-maintenance living.
As home prices continues to rise, so do the size of homes. The square footage of the average American home has nearly tripled over the last 50 years—from 983 square feet in the 1950’s to 2,500 square feet in 2020. Moreover, the Denver Metro Association of Realtors January report showed an average home price in Boulder County of almost $1.1MM (+1.8% vs. 2022).
