 market. Many prospects loved the idea of living in the mountains but found that main-level bedrooms were hard to come by when dealing with vertical slopes. Additionally, they did not want the maintenance of a single-family home especially when living in the mountains.

In response to this untapped market, Prospectors Run is offering private elevators in several of their floor plans with prices starting at just $285,000. Prospectors Run has currently installed elevators in 13% of their Phase I homes and confident that number will rise in Phase II.

The elevator is elegantly and seamlessly incorporated into the home as the elevator doors mirror the rest of the doors in the home. Additionally, access to the elevator is available on all three levels and can comfortably fit four individuals or one wheel chair. Prospectors Run has found that several of the units were not considered necessary but a design feature that may prove to be handy in the future.

Within each home that has an elevator, buyers will also enjoy 1,700+ sq. ft., 2 bedrooms, 2' baths, 2-car attached garage, hardwood hardwood: see wood.

With 14 spacious floor plans ranging from 1,300 - 2,400+ sq. ft. and prices starting at just $202,500, these mountain retreats are sure to sell fast.
