Why it worked: The Craftsman-style exterior, pillared front porch, and single-family design of the Crown Pointe model are unusual in this Colorado market and proved to be a fresh new alternative. Move-up and second-home buyers bought for easy access to ski resort and hiking trails–and local golfing sealed the deal.
