There are a myriad of reasons people are moving to Northgate, be it the stunning scenery, daily conveniences or close proximity to the North entrance of the Air Force Academy.

Promontory at Northgate is a beautiful new attached single family home community with phenomenal, panoramic views of Pikes Peak and the Front Range.

The development is being built

shopping, entertainment, hiking, biking and golfing. It is also located in the very popular Academy School District 20 attendance area. Surrounding the development is The Farm, a community with 130 acres of dedicated open space and nearly five miles of trails that course through open spaces, pines and scrub oaks; with peaceful ponds and inspiring mountain vistas to enjoy along the way.

SPOTLIGHT: PROMONTORY AT NORTHGATE CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

the most lavish community in the region with a resort-style athletic club and spa and an 18-hole golf course.

Buyers at Promontory at Northgate may choose from a townhome or patio home. All properties have full maintenance for the front yard, rear yard and common areas included in the HOA. It is rare to find full landscaping and maintenance included with patio homes, and with HOAs at $120 a month versus the usual $250 or so for similar properties, the value can’t be beat.

Lokal Homes’ quality of construction is far above industry standards, with twohour fire rated insulation board instead

of one-hour, making the structure safe and soundproof. The homes also come with a one-year workmanship, two-year mechanical and ten-year structural warranty.

The patio homes have two different floor plans to choose from. The charming Lilli Plan is a one-story three-bedroom, three-bathroom home complete with a basement and two-car garage. The 2,621 square feet of living space features an elegant great room with a fireplace and nine-foot ceilings.

Two bedrooms — including the master bedroom with attached bathroom and walk-in closet — are on the main level,

while the third is tucked in a sunny corner of a standard walk-out basement with a walk-in closet and nearby bathroom. A large recreation room in the basement makes for hours of fun and entertainment. The spacious Stella Plan is a 2,606 square foot three-bedroom, three-bathroom patio home with an attached two-car garage. Similar to the Lilli Plan, but with additional space to enjoy leisure time and all three bedrooms have walk-in-closets. Both homes have more than 650 square feet of unfinished storage area in the basement. The paired patio homes start at $394,990 and are going fast, with

only three left on the market.

There are three different townhome floorplans to select from that range from 1,523 to 2,470 square feet, with 12 properties still up for sale. The Briley plan is a bright ranch-style home with a formal dining room, open concept kitchen and great room with vaulted ceilings, two large bedrooms — including a master suite with attached bathroom and walk-in closet — and an attached oversized two-car garage.

“This is the only ranch style townhome in Nothgate that I know of that starts as low as $294,990,” says Jonathan Edewaard, Community Sales Manager for Lokal Homes.

The Cayla Plan is a roomy two-story townhome featuring three bedrooms, 2.5 baths and an over-sized two-car garage. The floor-plan is complimented by an airy great room overlooking the kitchen and dining area. The second floor offers modern day convenience with an upper level laundry room and optional built-in tech center.

The spacious and customizable Colson Plan is a two-story townhome that can be designed to fit the homeowner’s needs with various room configurations. The main floor master bedroom offers convenience while the great room is flooded with beautiful, natural light. The upper level features two bedrooms and a loft, with potential

for a fourth bedroom. Homeowners for all townhome plans will appreciate the convenience of the mud room off the garage, the spacious laundry room and the large unfinished basement.

Construction on the Northgate at Promontory Point community is 50 percent complete and 82 percent of the homes are sold.

As men and women retire or approach retirement age, many opt to downsize their homes. Such a decision can save older adults substantial amounts of money while also liberating them from the hassle of maintaining large homes they no longer need.

Downsizing to smaller homes or apartments is a significant step, one that homeowners should give ample consideration before making

their final decisions. The following are a handful of tips to help homeowners determine if downsizing to smaller homes is the right move.

Factors to consider when choosing a neighborhood METRO SERVICES

When shopping for a home, it’s easy for buyers to fall in love with a property. A well-maintained home with updated features can be hard to resist, but buyers must consider more than just a home’s appearance before submitting an offer.

One variable prospective home buyers tend to value more highly than others is the neighborhood where they will ultimately choose to live. Many buyers even value neighborhoods more than homes, feeling they can always fix a home but cannot necessarily fix an undesirable neighborhood. When considering which neighborhood to begin a home search, buyers should research a host of factors.

CRIME Crime statistics are public domain, meaning buyers can examine crime figures for any neighborhood where they are considering buying a home.

Some real estate websites list neighborhood crime ratings among the information they offer about a given property. In addition, buyers interested in learning about crime in a given neighborhood can visit a site such as CrimeReports.com to access data on crimes committed near a particular address.

HOME VALUES Home values are another factor

to consider when choosing a neighborhood in which to buy a home. Buyers can work with a local realtor to find a neighborhood or area where real estate prices are trending upwards. While buyers might be able to find a great deal on a home in a neighborhood where home prices are dropping, it’s important to remember those home prices are dropping for a reason. Work with your realtor to find a neighborhood where you can afford a home and where property values are not in decline. Realtors will have access to recent sales figures so you can get an idea of whether a neighborhood is trending upward or in decline.

the middle of the hustle and bustle.

COMMUTE Quality of life is heavily influenced by commute time. Many men and women feel their quality of life improves dramatically the shorter their daily commute is.

When considering a particular neighborhood, do a test run before making an offer on a home. Wake up early and drive to the area where you are thinking of buying, and then commute from there during rush hour. Also, do the reverse commute come quitting time. You might be

able to get an estimated commute time online, but a test run can give you a more accurate idea of what your daily trips to and from the office will be like.

Choosing a neighborhood where you will enjoy living requires some forethought and research. 

AMENITIES The proximity of amenities such as shopping, restaurants and parks is attractive to many buyers, and that’s something all buyers should consider before buying a home. Even if you prefer a home in a remote location, it can limit your market of buyers when you want to sell the home down the road. While your own comfort and preferences should ultimately prevail over potential resale value, it’s important that you at least consider access to amenities before making a decision. You might be able to find a compromise in a home that is a short drive away from a town center, but still remote enough that you are not in

ERA Shields hosts art show to raise money for MDA NEWSWIRE ERA Shields Real Estate hosted the 10th Annual Expressions of Hope Art Show on Friday, September 23, 2016 at St. Paul’s Catholic Church in the Julie Penrose Hall. The funds raised benefit MDA Summer Camp so local kids with life-threatening diseases can enjoy a week where anything is possible at Rocky Mountain Village in Empire, CO. This year’s art show generated $24,000 which will send 30 local kids to MDA Summer Camp.

More than 250 guests, including key figures in the Colorado Springs Real Estate community and several local families living with muscle disease attended. Guests enjoyed a night complete with beer and wine, a silent and live auction, local art, live art demonstrations as well as passed hors d’oeuvres.

Notable guests include MDA Colorado Springs Goodwill Ambassadors, Kalvin Blauert and Cory Jacobson as well as other local families living with muscular dystrophy and related diseases.

During the live auction Blauert and Jacobson shared the joy and freedom summer camp brought to their life.

Guests return each year to see the artists showcased at the event and purchase pieces to benefit MDA. Eleven local artists attended including Mark Wong, Laura McCracken, Laura Reilly, Lisa Akens, John Mendoza, Alex Palacio, Terri Sanchez, Eric Fetsch, Simone Farley, Daniel Lindvig and Peter Olson. All of the artists donate a percentage of sales back to MDA. Artists John Mendoza, Eric Fetsch, Laura Reilly

and Mark Wong worked with local MDA Summer Campers to create special pieces for the event that were sold during the silent and live auction. The highlight of the night was when MDA Colorado Springs Ambassador Blauert did a live painting performance with artist Eric Fetsch. They created a watercolor painting that sold in the live auction for $1,300.

ERA Shields is proud to host this event and their dedication and passion for giving back to the muscle disease community comes from top down with President Bill Hurt, his wife Carol, and GM and Vice President Cathi Sullivan. Under their strategic and generous leadership, ERA Shields continues to be one of the top fundraising companies for MDA in the United States.

Sullivan mentioned that “every year our agents, staff and clients look forward to making this event a huge success in order to send kids to camp. We have seen what a wonderful environment camp is for them and we are honored to support this cause.”

Since 2007 the Expressions of Hope Art Show has raised more than $264,000 to help accelerate progress for individuals whose abilities to move are compromised by neuromuscular disease — including everyday abilities like walking, running, hugging, talking and even breathing. The local MDA office serves over 2,300 clients and families, with approximately 400 in the Southern Colorado region.

This year’s event could not be

possible with out the generous donations from the following sponsors: American Home Shield, Unified Title, SSA, Smiling Toad Brewery, Summit Catering, Downtown Fine Spirits & Wines, The Cupcake Girls, Catriona Cellars Winery and Pikes Peak Brewing Company.

ABOUT MDA The Muscular Dystrophy Association is the world’s leading nonprofit health agency dedicated to saving and improving the lives of people with muscle disease, including spinal muscular atrophy, muscular dystrophy, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and other

neuromuscular diseases. It does so by funding worldwide research to find treatments and cures; by providing comprehensive health care services and support to MDA families nationwide; and by rallying communities to fight back through advocacy, fundraising and local engagement. 

HOW TO DETERMINE IF DOWNSIZING IS FOR YOU

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 4

sale. Speak with a local realtor or your financial advisor about the current state of your real estate market. Downsizing can help homeowners save money on utilities, taxes and mortgage payments, but those savings may be negated if you sell your house in a buyer’s market instead of a seller’s market. If you think the current market won’t get you the price you are hoping for, delay your downsize until the market rebounds.

TAKE INVENTORY OF WHAT’S IN YOUR HOUSE Empty nesters often find that their homes are still filled with their children’s possessions, even long after those children have entered adulthood and

left home. If the storage in your home is dominated by items that belong to your children and not you, then downsizing might be right for you. Tell your children you are thinking of downsizing and invite them over to pick through any items still in your home. Once they have done so and taken what they want, you can host a yard sale, ultimately donating or discarding what you cannot sell.

Once all of the items are gone, you may realize that moving into a smaller place is the financially prudent decision.

EXAMINE YOUR OWN ITEMS AS WELL Your children’s items are likely not the only items taking up space in your

home. Take inventory of your own possessions as well, making note of items you can live without and those you want to keep. If the list of items you can live without is extensive, then you probably won’t have a problem moving into a smaller home. If you aren’t quite ready to say goodbye to many of your possessions, then you might benefit from staying put for a little while longer.

see yourself as a silver-haired jetsetter, then you likely won’t miss your current home because you won’t be home frequently enough to enjoy it. If travel is not high on your retirement to-do list but you have a hobby, such as crafting, restoring classic cars or woodworking

— that you hope to turn into a second profession — then you might benefit from staying put and converting your existing space into a workshop.

Many retirees downsize their homes, but this decision requires careful consideration of a variety of factors. 

CONSIDER YOUR RETIREMENT LIFESTYLE If you have already retired or on the verge of retirement and plan to spend lots of time traveling, then downsizing to a smaller home may free up money you can spend on trips. And if you really do

BY SCOTT MCGILLIVRAY  METRO SERVICES

Rancher w/Fin. Walk-Out Basement On 5 Acre Horse Property!

As a contractor and real estate expert, I am often asked by homeowners for advice on the best projects for their remodeling dollars. While it’s important to first consider the purpose of the remodel (is it for yourself, for resale or as part of an income-generating suite?), there are some remodels that have proven to be reliable investments over time. Some of these include: KITCHENS AND BATHROOMS Remodels here top the list. High-end finishes, like marble and quartz countertops and stainless steel or commercial grade appliances, are greatly coveted. Clever storage is desirable, along with home automation; a new and growing trend.

BATHROOMS This one is simple. The hottest bathrooms right now aim to replicate a spa-like experience.

From color and accessories to scents and lighting, transforming this room into a relaxation haven will maximize its appeal.

BASEMENTS Basement remodels are among the best ways to gain space without going the route of a costly addition, but the key is doing it right. Address moisture issues first, and hire professionals for plumbing, electrical and mechanical work.

Insulate with a water-repellant insulation made from inorganic materials to improve energy efficiency, and then focus on the finishes.

INSULATION Installing, topping up or replacing insulation is one of the most cost-effective ways to increase energy efficiency and save money over the life of your home. For exterior walls, basements headers, cathedral ceilings and attics, I recommend a product called Roxul Comfortbatt stone wool insulation for exceptional thermal performance.

For interior walls and between floors, I’m a big fan of Roxul Safe ‘n’ Sound for its excellent sound dampening qualities. Both products are fire resistant up to 2,150°F, resistant to mold and mildew and Greenguard-certified to the highest level for air quality.

SMALLER FIXES Know that you do not have to spend a lot of money to realize a good return. If you cannot afford a full-out kitchen or bathroom remodel, consider painting walls and cabinets, replacing outdated hardware or fixtures and installing new lighting for an impactful refresh. When it comes to living spaces, it’s amazing what a splash of color, some new flooring, carefully selected accessories and strategic lighting can do for the look and feel of a room. Save a little extra by doing it yourself. With a positive attitude and some elbow grease, you can make a big difference with projects that require low to moderate know-how.
