Meadowlark at Mountain Village

Meadowlark at Mountain Village is located at Lot 644, a 1.6-acre lot located in the Meadows neighborhood just above Parker Ridge. This parcel of land was designated for the development of deed-restricted housing in the early 1990s when Mountain Village was originally a planned unit development prior to the incorporation of Mountain Village.

The Town began the process of developing Lot 644 in early 2022. Although Lot 644 is platted for 41 units, the Town received significant input from the Meadows residents regarding density on Lot 644 and within the Meadows as a whole.

As a result, the project will now consist of 29 employee condominiums spread throughout four separate buildings, including a multi-family building with 12 one- and two-bedroom condo units and three townhome-style buildings with a total of 17 two- and three-bedroom condo units. The project will also provide a total of 56 parking spaces.

The project design was approved by the Mountain Village Design Review Board in November 2022 and ground will break once the snow melts in spring 2023 with a targeted move-in in 2024.
