Wrap it up for Christmas: House Beautiful concept home on 2 view-swept acres near Parker is ready for move-in

On a day when you may be thinking more about holiday shopping than a new house, a custom home community near Parker will let you tour a designer walkout ranch that could completely remake your Yule fest this year.

Fox Hill, the hugely successful farm-to-table community created from a historic farm, was the site picked by House Beautiful magazine for its national Concept House last year—showcasing all of the latest technology for energy conservation and home wellness. The home was under contract, but has come back on the market now at $2.79 million, a price that represents an opportunity over where it was before.

“This is by far the best value home for size and features anywhere in Fox Hill or the surrounding countryside,” says Paige McLaughlin, who will show you the home today.

“You couldn’t possibly build it today for anywhere near this price, particularly on this 2-acre site with its views of the Front Range.”

Fox Hill has been overwhelmed by post-pandemic homebuyers wanting its unique combination of more room, more privacy, and a healthier lifestyle. When you visit, you’ll see the state-of-the-art farm that’s providing residents with fresh salad greens, eggs, fish, and other produce.

Meanwhile, the House Beautiful home was chosen by the national organization Wellness Within Your Walls for its first-ever certification, marking a sustainable approach to a healthier environment.

The 4-bedroom/6-bath ranch design delivers 5,424 sq. feet of finished space, including a finished walkout level with guest bedrooms and added entertaining area. The home shows a separate ‘Boomer Suite’ for a returning parent wanting to be close to grandkids, or another multigenerational use.

The home is designed for work-from-home capability—a much-in-demand feature post-pandemic—including a contemporary ‘We Shed’ accessory unit perfect as an office.

You’ll see a gorgeous complement of outdoor living space wrapped in designer landscaping, that’s been enhanced by the builder with another $12,000 worth of Ponderosa pines to add additional privacy.

McLaughlin says that Fox Hill and its wellness-oriented lifestyle have drawn a surprisingly wide range of buyers—some from Denver urban neighborhoods wanting more space; but also from out-of-state, including families with kids liking the Douglas County Schools.

You’ll see how close this is to the Denver Tech Center (35 minutes) and to shopping in Parker. Fox Hill is off Flintwood Road south of Bayou Gulch Road. Take Parker Road south to Bayou Gulch, head east five miles, and turn south on Flintwood Road.
