Welcome to the first Sanctuary Pointe HOA Newsletter.
Let us start by thanking you for choosing to make Sanctuary Pointe the place you call
home. Today's newsletter is the first of many to follow. The goal is to provide residents
with quarterly newsletter updates that offer information about development progress,
community events, and tips on how you can help us look after the natural beauty and
amenities in Sanctuary Pointe.

Sanctuary Pointe is currently home to 95 families. We expect to welcome another 30-40
families to the community by the end of 2018. We recently opened Filing 3A, an area
replatted from 48 paired-patio homes to 46 single family homesites, offering homes from
Classic Homes and Vantage Homes. The brisk momentum of sales is confirmation that
Sanctuary Pointe has become one of El Paso County’s most desirable communities.

Our land development and planning teams are currently working on the Phase 2 site plan,
which was approved by the Town of Monument in March. Phase 2 consists of 273 lots
within 196 acres, with more than 50 acres being tracts, open space and plans for a park.
The first release of 105 single family homesites is anticipated to begin early 2019.
Construction along Sanctuary Rim Drive and within Phase 2 began during the summer
and is anticipated to take, at minimum, 12 months (pending weather) to complete. Our
efforts will connect Sanctuary Rim Dr. to Gleneagle Dr. We are also very pleased with the
direction and progress of the trails plan. Construction of the trail system continues with
each adjacent phase of development. We believe Sanctuary Pointe is poised to boast
some of the best trails in the region.

We recently completed some notable improvements along the entrance to the
community, including stone columns, heavy cedar fence, two additional logo panels,
landscaping, and the community gazebo.

As always, we encourage you, your family and friends to take in everything your
community has to offer by experiencing the beauty of living in a Colorado forest-like
setting. When you are out and about, we ask that you be mindful that Sanctuary Pointe is
an active construction site, so please be safe.

If you have any suggestions about community events, topics, or photos you would like
to be considered for the  winter or spring newsletters, please drop us an email at
info@sanctuarypointecolorado.com.

Wrapped in pine forest, very contemporary new models are selling fast, 50 minutes south of Denver in Monument. 

By: Mark Samuelson

One of the fastest selling communities anywhere along the Front Range this summer isn’t in Denver or its suburbs, but rather 50 minutes south of town in Monument, Colo., on the way to Colorado Springs.  Today and tomorrow you can tour two very attractive model homes, wrapped in Black Forest pines, that have only been open a few weeks, but that have already lured more than fifty home sales.  Many of which are going to Denver area buyers.

Sanctuary Pointe, with luxury home designs by Colorado Springs-based builders Classic Homes, Vantage Homes, and Saddletree Homes, is only five minutes east of I-25, but surrounded by forest, with some thru-views to Pikes Peak and the U.S. Air Force Academy (located just one exit south on I-25).

“It’s the feel of being disassociated from city yet being a part of it,” says Crystal Johnston, Marketing Manager for Vantage Homes, with a very contemporary ‘Riverwood’ model home open, featuring four bedrooms including a main-floor master suite.  “The Black Forest feels like a home away from home, yet you’re five minutes from the grocer,” she adds.

Classic Homes’ Jeff Ellis, with a five-bedroom ‘Dynasty’ main-floor master suite model open, says that Colorado Springs buyers have been waiting for something like this – a community immersed in Black Forest pines, but with metro services including city water and sewer.  Meanwhile, Denver buyers (they’ve already sold to a number of them) are coming for other reasons.

“People from Denver are amazed by the prices,” says Ellis, who can deliver homes the low $400s for luxury single-family homes; from $401,600 for a fast-selling series of paired patio-ranch homes.  “Try and find homes in Denver that offer this size and features at this price.  Buyers tell us that they see around an $80,000 difference to comparable homes up there.”

In both models, you’ll see a wide-open contemporary styling that’s a step forward from what Denver builders are showing this year:  standalone entryways, lots of depth and intrigue in the kitchen-dining-family areas, and outdoor-living spaces that bring the beauty of the forested setting indoors. 

Saddletree Homes is getting set to open its own five-bedroom, four bath ‘Dillon’ ranch model next month – but already has numbers of sales here, at prices from the low $600s.  Along with the two model homes already open, you’ll see homes on track to deliver soon – including a ‘Monarch’ 5-bedroom 4-1/2 bath plan with 3-car garage, by Classic, ready now, priced at $588,469; and a ‘Nakota’ ranch, over 4,000 square feet finished plus basement and 3-car garage, backing to wooded open space, set for September/October move-in.  It’s priced at $531,562.

There’s another reason why Denver buyers come down now, rather than waiting for later.  Colorado Springs has picked Sanctuary Pointe as one of the main sites for the Parade of Homes this August; expected to drive even more buyers to these forested sites.  

To visit Sanctuary Pointe, take I-25 south past C-470 and continue 35 miles to Exit 158/Baptist Road.  Head east on Baptist 3.5 miles to Sanctuary Rim Drive, turn left a block to Mountain Mist, and left again onto Summerglow.  Or check out the ad on Page __ of this section for a map.

Shades of warm grays and creams with additions of black create a classic combination that is comfortable, with just the right about of rustic, for the lifestyle in Sanctuary Pointe. The contrast between the light linen upholstery and the warm black and caramel furniture pieces create a layering detail, while pops of metal highlight the mountain modern style of the interior of this home. Hints of coppery orange offer a soft and calming ambiance in what is sure to be a home filled with energy with living spaces for a large family. This interior design balances clean fluid lines, textural materials, and bold prints.

The results of the Gazette’s Best Of 2017 Voter’s Choice Awards are in!
by: Classic Homes

Every year readers and staff of The Gazette in Colorado Springs get the chance to vote for and recognize the BEST in the city. This year was no exception, readers had the opportunity to vote for their favorite companies and organizations in a variety of categories. From dining and entertainment to neighborhoods and homebuilders, the votes were tallied and the 2017 winners will hold this coveted distinction for a full year. It all came together on Thursday, April 13, 2017 when the Gazette and many of the companies recognized in the Best Of The Springs gathered at the Pikes Peak Center to celebrate the official unveiling of the 2017 Winners. On Sunday, April 16, 2017 the Best Of The Springs was published and distributed as a special section of the Gazette.
It’s official, Classic Homes is the BEST of the BEST.

Everyone at Classic Homes is proud to be among the BEST of the BEST in Colorado Springs. Our team at Classic Homes earned the reader’s vote for GOLD in the categories of BEST HOME DEVELOPER and BEST HOME BUILDER. Voters said: “Classic Homes was our home builder when we moved here in 2009; when we were ready to purchase in 2012 they had everything ready. The customer care team came out after we moved in to address any issues and concerns we had, with prompt and courteous professionalism!”
​
This year’s recognition for BEST HOME BUILDER was a milestone year for our company. It marked the 10th consecutive year for receiving the GOLD in the HOME BUILDER category. (Well, except 2011…that was the only year in the past decade that the home builder category was not included in the Best of The Springs. Otherwise, we might be celebrating our 11th year! We suppose everyone is entitled to a mulligan now and then!)  In addition to being named the BEST HOME BUILDER in Colorado Springs for the 10th year running, we are pleased to share that many of the neighborhoods where you’ll find our homes were also ranked as Colorado Springs BEST HOME DEVELOPMENT or HOME DEVELOPERS.

Classic Homes has built more than 11,000 homes in the Colorado Springs region and we’re so honored to have achieved BEST OF status again this year. We are certainly in good company!
