There is something special about Loretto Heights. Maybe it’s the historic soul of the campus, or perhaps it’s the way the Denver skyline glimmers just a few miles to the north while the Rockies frame the western horizon. At Thrive Home Builders, we believe that where you live should do more than just house your belongings—it should elevate your daily life.
We are thrilled to announce our latest homesite release at Loretto Heights. This release offers a selection of some of the most anticipated locations we’ve offered to date. Situated on a gentle rise at the highest point of the neighborhood, these new homesites are designed for those who want to see their slice of life from a better perspective.
Make the Best Views Yours
If you’ve been waiting for a home that captures the true essence of Colorado living, this release is for you. Because these specific homesites sit on a slight hill, they offer some of the best views in the entire community.
Our three-story townhomes, in particular, are showstoppers. Imagine stepping out onto your private balcony with a morning coffee as the sun hits the peaks of the Front Range, or winding down with a glass of wine as the downtown Denver lights flicker into life. Loretto Heights offers views of both downtown and the mountains, guaranteeing a breathtaking sight, day or night. By securing a spot on this “high point,” you’re ensuring that your daily backdrop is nothing short of spectacular.
Thoughtful Design for an Urban Retreat
At Thrive, we don’t believe in “cookie-cutter.” We believe in smart design. Our Loretto Heights rowhomes and townhomes are meticulously crafted to balance the energy of urban living with the serenity of a personal retreat.
Whether you are looking for a manageable two-story layout or a spacious three-story plan, these homes range from 1,357 to 2,078 square feet with options for 2 to 4 bedrooms and up to 4.5 baths. But the numbers only tell half the story. It’s the feeling of the space that matters:
- Sunlit Open Floor Plans: We’ve designed these homes with walls of windows that bring the outdoors inside. The primary suites, in particular, are bathed in natural light, creating an airy, peaceful atmosphere.
- Entertainer’s Kitchens: High-end finishes and functional layouts mean you’ll actually want to host the next dinner party.
- Private Outdoor Spaces: In addition to private balconies, many of these homes feature enclosed yards—a rare find in urban townhome living—offering a spot for your four-legged friend or a small garden.
- Attached Garages: Say goodbye to the winter windshield scraping. With 1- and 2-car attached garages, your vehicles and gear stay protected and accessible.
High-Performance Living: The Substance Behind Our Stylish Homes
While the aesthetics might pull you in, it’s what’s behind the walls that makes a Thrive home a life-changing investment. We don’t just build to code; we build for high performance. This means your home is an active participant in your health and your financial well-being.
Energy Efficiency That Pays You Back
At Loretto Heights, energy efficiency is built in. High-performance insulation and efficient windows work alongside solar panels to generate your new home’s clean energy. So much so that the three-story homes in this neighborhood average a HERS score of 5, meaning they produce nearly as much energy as they use. The result? Low utility bills from the very first month!
Our two-story homes follow the same high-efficiency approach—tight construction, solar-forward design, and independent certification—delivering consistently low operating costs and reliable energy savings compared to typical new construction. No matter the layout, every home is designed for comfort, efficiency, and long-term savings you can feel.
A Healthier Indoor Environment
We spend the majority of our time indoors, so why wouldn’t we treat the air we breathe with the same care as the water we drink? Our homes feature:
- Advanced Fresh Air Ventilation: Constantly bringing in filtered outside air.
- Low-VOC Materials: We choose paints, carpets, and adhesives that don’t have harmful chemicals.
- High-Quality Filtration: Reducing dust, allergens, and pollutants for a truly “clean” living experience.
Year-Round Comfort
Ever lived in a house where the upstairs is a sauna while the downstairs is a fridge? Not here. Our high-efficiency HVAC systems and heat pumps, combined with thoughtful mechanical engineering, ensure consistent temperatures and quieter interiors. It’s the kind of comfort you have to feel to believe. And a Thrive home is designed to perform exceptionally well over time, reducing maintenance, waste, and overall environmental impact.
A Community That Connects
Loretto Heights is the neighborhood Denver is investing in. Rooted in history and guided by a long-term vision, this community is becoming a cultural and civic destination shaped by intentional public reinvestment. Plans include a new Denver Public Library branch and a future Denver Center for the Performing Arts theater space. Both buildings were part of the historic Loretto Heights campus that was once here.
The former campus theater will be reimagined as a modern venue serving Southwest Denver, while the historic library building is being preserved and transformed into a new public library for the surrounding community.
With nearby RTD and light rail access, residents are seamlessly connected to downtown Denver while living in a place designed for enduring value and relevance. Loretto Heights represents a rare opportunity to be part of a neighborhood shaped not just for today, but for generations to come.
