Situated in a verdant pine forest on the eastern edge of the Rocky Mountains, Canyon Pines offers future residents an extraordinary living experience with a unique blend of accessibility and seclusion. Residents will find themselves enveloped in a serene environment where meticulously designed architecture seamlessly blends with the natural surroundings, creating a harmonious living space that celebrates and preserves the breathtaking beauty of the landscape.
Canyon Pines boasts over 150 acres of open space, featuring trails that connect every home to backcountry-style paths for scenic bike rides and rugged hikes, allowing residents to engage with nature directly from their doorsteps. The unique location provides easy access to some of the Front Range’s best outdoor recreation spots, including Eldorado Canyon State Park, Golden Gate Canyon State Park, North Table Mountain Park, Chautauqua Park, White Ranch Park, and Gross Reservoir, among others. Each of these destinations offers a variety of activities, from hiking and biking to fishing, kayaking, and wildlife viewing, ensuring that residents have endless opportunities to engage with the natural environment directly from their doorsteps.
Canyon Pines perfectly embodies the lifestyle future residents Bernice and Todd Paris were searching for. "We chose Canyon Pines because it was the perfect balance of being in the mountains with access to the city and everything it has to offer," Bernice shares. With an abundance of nature right outside their door, they found the mountain home they desired while also staying close to urban centers like Boulder and Denver.
The Parises appreciate the unique custom development and modern aesthetic of the community. “Our architect has done an amazing job of capturing the views,” Bernice adds. “We look forward to peacefully sitting on our deck and listening to the wind through all the trees that Canyon Pines worked to preserve.”
Contributing to the transcendent lifestyle, Canyon Pines exhibits a community where architecture and nature coexist seamlessly. Each home is a singular masterpiece of design, tailored to complement the land's unique characteristics. The architectural design standards are crafted to ensure a high-quality aesthetic that respects and enhances the natural environment. This thoughtful design approach harmonizes with the landscape, allowing homes to recede into the surroundings gracefully.
Josh Anderson, design manager and senior lead architect at Melton Design Build, reflects on the design of a home on Lot 14: "A unique property that features an open lot to the south with pristine views of downtown Denver and glimpses of the Flatirons to the north. We sought to locate the structure on the northwest corner of the site to take full advantage of these impressive sight lines."
The Lot 14 design integrates modern living with bespoke customization, emphasizing an open floor plan and large openings that blur the line between indoor and outdoor spaces. "The design is layered into the landscape, with a foundation level that is anchored to the earth," Josh explains, "allowing the upper floors to organically grow outward from each other to blend with the mountain landscape and allow for extended use throughout all four seasons."
Another standout home within Canyon Pines is on Lot 29, a stunning creation by HMH Architecture + Interiors. "Our goal was to fully embrace the site’s unique features and challenges," explains Lindsey Beukhof, architect at HMH. The design features an 'L'-shaped structure that maximizes privacy and southern views while blending seamlessly with the natural surroundings. A distinctive element is the bridge that connects the upper level of the house directly to the road.
At HMH, client collaboration is integral to the design process. "We love creating homes that are truly one-of-a-kind," Lindsey says. “Once we fully understand our client's needs and desires, we explore a range of design options to bring their vision to life.” This approach ensures that each home is a unique reflection of its owners.
Canyon Pines is more than just a residential community; it's a lifestyle that celebrates the relationship between land and architecture. With easy access to the Front Range’s diverse natural playground, incomparable architectural expressions, and seamless integration with its surroundings, Canyon Pines offers an unparalleled living experience for those seeking a harmonious connection with the natural world.
