Heritage Estates/Heritage Heights

This new subdivision has been a hot seller for their innovative designs and location. Nearby restaurants, shopping and a Regal Cinema 14 are 5 minutes away or you could even walk there.  There are many styles of new homes with several builders to choose from.  Originally it was Heritage Estates in 2013-2014 with 1400-2200 sq.ft. homes.  Heritage Heights began in 2016 and as of now, is still building. The homes are 1280-1997 sq.ft. on very small lots, about .10 to .13.  Three car garage options were added in 2018 and  only available on a few lots because of the lot sizes. This subdivision is appealing to young professionals and families.

Colonial Heights

Homes in Colonial Heights are traditional style homes and the streets are named after early presidents in U.S. History.  Built by Blue Star homes in 2003-2005, the subdivision is comprised of mainly one story homes with the exception of only 3-4 two-story homes. Colonial Heights is known for bigger than average lots, 3 car garages and homes range in size from 1444-2034 square feet.  High ceilings, granite counters, covered back patios are some of the features buyers love.  Colonial Heights is less than two miles from Canyon View Park, the biggest and most popular park in Grand Junction.  Shopping, restaurants, movie theaters and medical services are very close-by.

Paradise Hills

Paradise Hills is one of my favorite areas because the subdivision has thousands of trees and  is built on rolling hills throughout the neighborhood.  Even though it is an older subdivision from the 1970's most homes have been updated with new kitchens and bathrooms. Homes range from 1300 to over 3000 square feet.  The lots are exceptionally large and average 1/4 to 1/2 acre.  The bi-level and tri-level homes were popular in the 70's and 80's and there are many of those in Paradise Hills.  Ranch style homes and traditional two-story homes are also available. The homes on the east side of Paradise Hills have views of the Bookcliff mountains.  Paradise Hills has a neighborhood park and walking trails.

Northridge Estates

Northridge is a tucked away neighborhood that you might miss if you didn't know it was there.  Situated right off of Patterson and 26 Road,  you take the winding road up to Northridge Estates, which is an established neighborhood and has been around for over 35 years.  Buyers like the large lots sizes from 1/4 acre to over a 1/3 of an acre, the abundance of trees and the rolling terrain.  Floor plans reflect the styles in the 70's and 80's, with many tri-level, split-level, two story and ranch style homes.  Square footage ranges from 1500 to over 3000. Almost all of the homes have been updated at some point.  Northridge Estates is known for it's extravagant Christmas lights display and the residents go all-out.  Available homes are hard to find in this neighborhood.

Grand View

Grand View is centrally located off of 28 Road near Hawthorne and Cortland.  The neighborhood is adjacent to Grand Junction's Matchett Park, a 205 acre open space park with walking trails, a rugged setting and disc golf.  The homes on east side of Tamarron Drive back up to the park with views of the Bookcliffs and Mt. Garfield.  Homes were built 1995-2004 and range from 1500-2700 square feet.  These are quality homes on large lots and most have RV parking. Styles are mostly ranch and two story homes.

Aspen Valley Estates

Aspen Valley Estates is the newest subdivision and is off G Road.  There are multiple builders and each have their own signature style and finishes.  These are quality homes with the flexibility to customize the finishes.  The homes range in size  from 1905 to 2500 square feet.  There is both ranch style homes and two story homes.  Aspen Valley Estates is a stellar location close  to shopping, the mall, restaurants and Canyon View Park.  A charter school or private Catholic school is just minutes away.

Summer Hill

Summer Hill is the North area premier town home and new home community.  The town homes were built from about 2000 to 2009 and have a Tuscan feel with courtyards and stucco walls surrounding the homes. Some even have a detached Casita.   Luxury single family  one-story homes started in 2013 and continue to the present.  The HOA manages all the front yard landscaping.  The neighborhood sits higher with spectacular views of the Bookcliffs.  There are walking trails, ponds, gazebos and park benches throughout.  The new construction homes are 100% custom down to every last detail. You can move walls, upgrade, select all your finishes, do as much as you want.  This is such a popular community that when a home is listed it is under contract quickly.

Spring Valley

This is the largest neighborhood in North Grand Junction with 419 homes and two city parks. Homes were built from 1977 through 1992.  A mix of ranch style, bi-level and two story homes that range from 1200 to 2500 square feet, lots average 1/4 acre to 1/3 acre   Spring Valley buyers are mostly families and they love the two city parks.  One park is 2.7 acres of open space and the other is 3.1 acres with basketball courts, playground, picnic table and grills.

Grand Vista

The homes were built from 2002-2008.  The neighborhood has a great feel of a well established community with  open space near the homes.  Grand Vista is at the end of 26 1/2 Road and I Road.  The size of the homes are from 1500 to 3500 square feet. These were custom homes with excellent finishes.  The homes on Overview Road have incredible views of the Bookcliffs and most have walk-out basements.  Grand Vista and Summer Hill are right next to each other.
