They deserve convenient shopping, services, restaurants and night life, all within walking distance. They deserve safe outdoor activities: swimming, soccer, parks, playgrounds, open space and trails, even when they are earning less than $42,000 per year.

In short, they deserve the 29th Drive Row Homes in the Stapleton Neighborhood, where two-bedroom units by New Town Builders start at $122,900 and the three-bedroom units top out at $173,900; where people of modest means can share the amenities of their half-million-dollar neighbors – and possibly pick up an extra $8,000 credit from Uncle Sam along the way.

A typical 29th Drive Row Home buyer has never purchased a home before, has up to three additional members in the home, and makes less than $60,800. As a first-timer, this home buyer has until June 30th to complete the transaction on the home and take advantage of a new credit offered by the federal government worth up to $8,000. The contract must be written by April 30; and the New Town Builders sales representative on site can help explain the process.

These 29th Drive Row Homes are part of the newest phase of the affordable housing program at Stapleton, so there are restrictions on yearly household income and restrictions on resale prices. But if you qualify, you will find a stunning array of features that you probably never imagined might be available at these prices.

For instance, all units have attached garages (one- or two-car), and all come fully equipped with GE black appliances – including washer and dryer. New Town has made the move-in process almost effortless.

Additionally, all units have covered entryways and second-floor decks made of composite materials. The entryway is further distinguished by its Therma-Tru front door and Armstrong® laminate flooring. Visitors will find Shaw Red Bud carpeting throughout the home’s living areas.

The popular three-bedroom units (1,463 square feet) come with 2 ½ baths and a walk-in closet in the master bedroom.

Every unit faces a courtyard to promote a vibrant sense of community and give residents a true sense of openness – even in a setting so convenient to downtown Denver.

But the real conversation starter at the 29th Drive Row Homes is the proximity to the new Stapleton Town Center, planned for construction within months. The Town Center will include shops, restaurants and entertainment. A grocery store – also within walking distance — is part of the development plans.

Of course, every unit is built to EnergyStar® standards and comes with the New Town Builders’ emphasis on quality, energy-efficiency and sustainability. Home Energy Rating System scores (from an independent party) are typically better than 82, meaning the units are 18% more efficient than the average home. Every unit is independently tested for leakage, proper air circulation and consistent temperatures for maximum comfort, health and dollar-savings. All units are constructed with Milgard® Style Line Low-E windows, a Honeywell Pro 4000 thermostat and Lennox 92% efficient furnace. Exterior walls are constructed with 2×6 studs (24 inches apart on center) that allow for more of the blown-in, mold resistance R-20 cellulose insulation.

New Town Builders offers three different versions of the 29th Drive Row Homes, beginning at 901 square feet. New Town Builders has 12 units under construction, due for completion between April and June, available for immediate purchase.
