I recently toured The Cottages at PrairieSong. In the video above, I’ll take you along for a closer look at the homes and talk about what buyers should know about this growing Windsor community.
What Are The Cottages at PrairieSong?
The Cottages are being built by Hartford Homes within the PrairieSong community in Windsor, Colorado. What immediately makes these homes stand out is their cottage-style design and smaller footprint.
For buyers who want the benefits of owning a new home but don’t necessarily want the maintenance that can come with a larger property, this type of home can be an interesting alternative.
- Looking to simplify or downsize
- Relocating to Windsor or Northern Colorado
- Interested in new construction
- Looking for a lower-maintenance lifestyle
- Wanting a newer home without necessarily needing a large yard
- Interested in living within a growing master-planned community
A Different Kind of New Construction in Windsor
When people think about new construction in Northern Colorado, it’s easy to picture large homes on traditional suburban lots. The Cottages offer something different.
The homes have a more compact design while still providing the modern finishes, floor plans and conveniences buyers often want from new construction. For some buyers, that means spending less time maintaining a home and more time actually enjoying where they live.
The biggest home isn’t always the right home.
Living at PrairieSong in Windsor
PrairieSong is one of the newer communities developing in Windsor and is designed to offer more than simply housing. As the neighborhood continues to develop, planned amenities and community spaces are expected to become an increasingly important part of the PrairieSong lifestyle.
When you’re comparing new-construction communities, look beyond the model home. Consider the community plans, amenities, HOA and/or metro district costs when applicable, location, commute, maintenance requirements and how the home might fit your lifestyle five or ten years from now.
Should You Consider The Cottages?
The Cottages won’t be the right fit for every buyer—and that’s exactly why Windsor buyers should compare communities before deciding where to purchase.
If your priority is having a huge backyard or a very large home, another Windsor neighborhood may make more sense. But if you’re looking for new construction, a manageable home and a more low-maintenance lifestyle, The Cottages at PrairieSong deserve a closer look.
Buying New Construction? Here’s Something Important to Know.
The sales representative at a model home represents the builder. As a buyer, you may be able to have your own real estate professional helping you navigate the process and representing your interests, subject to the builder’s policies.
Your agent can help you compare builders, communities, available homes, incentives, upgrades, HOA or metro district costs, contracts and new construction versus resale options. It’s smart to connect with your agent before your first visit to a builder or model home, because builder policies regarding outside real estate representation can vary.
