Solterra Overview

About Solterra

Solterra is a master-planned community on a hillside in southwest Lakewood, in the Rooney Valley between Green Mountain and Red Rocks. Many homes look toward the hogbacks, the foothills or the Denver skyline.

Development began in 2006, and Brookfield Residential is the community’s developer. The architecture leans Mediterranean, with rough-hewn stone, exposed beams, stucco and red tile roofs, and the community hosted the Parade of Homes in 2008.

Most homes are detached single-family homes, many on walkout or open-space lots, with ranch-style patio homes and townhomes in a few sections. Solterra sits near C-470 and West Alameda Parkway, with 6th Avenue (US-6) leading east toward downtown Denver.

Homes and Builders

Who built Solterra’s homes

  • Toll Brothers: built a smaller group of larger homes in an earlier phase, starting with its Bella model in 2011.
  • Infinity Home Collection: contemporary designs, often with tall ceilings and large windows.

Buyers

Buying a home in Solterra

What to weigh before you make an offer in Solterra.

  1. Know the full monthly cost

    Budget for HOA dues, Fossil Ridge Metropolitan District fees, and the district’s property tax levy. Solterra land also carries a levy for older Mount Carbon Metropolitan District debt. My metro districts guide explains how to read the numbers.

  2. Choose the lot and the view

    Orientation, what sits behind and below the lot, open-space frontage and walkout potential all shape daily life and resale.

  3. Plan for design review

    Exterior changes go through the Solterra HOA’s design review, and patio homes and townhomes add their own association rules. Check them if you have projects in mind.
