This 3 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom Lennar Ember on 9740 Meeker Street is listed for $450,000

Last February, the average single family home price in Denver passed the $500K mark for the first time ever. While this was great news for many current homeowners, this wasn't great news for many buyers. I don't know how many times I've heard our home-buying clients tell me how hard it is to find a high quality, 2,000+ square foot single family home under that magic $500K price point in the Denver metro area. Well, good news, friends!

Right now, Lennar has 15 quick move-ins available in Littleton's Sterling Ranch neighborhood, just south of Chatfield Reservoir, under $500K. These lovely two-story homes generally all have 3+ bedrooms, 2.5+ bathrooms, a 2 car garage, 2,000+ square feet, and other high-end features like granite countertops and stainless steel appliances.

Here's a great example. The Lennar Ember pictured below is listed for $450,000. Located at 9752 Meeker Street, Littleton, Colorado, this 2,065 square foot new home has 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and a 2 car garage.

This home has a sprawling, open and airy first level, with a the great room and nook that lead into the kitchen, which has white cabinets and a great backsplash (picture below!).

Upstairs, the master suite has a cute retreat area, a spa-inspired master bathroom, and a huge walk-in closet. The secondary bedrooms share a private bathroom. And don't forget the porch and outdoor living area!
