Most homes here start at $400,000, but for that price you will get a huge home of about 4,000 square feet with views that are spectacular, plus at least an acre of your own piece of Colorado. More modest homes, ranging from 1,500-2,000 square feet sell in the region of $200,000. These homes may be smaller, but lack nothing in beauty!
