Project Type Commercial | Multi-Family
Project Overview
The townhomes at Rocky Peak Village reflect a mountain craftsman design, featuring a rich blend of post & beam timbers, stone, and cedar. The community layout includes a park, playground, and a soft surface recreational trail, reinforcing an "old-fashioned neighborhood" feel. Its strategic location midway between the mountain and old town Steamboat ensures all shopping, schools, and public facilities are within a four-minute drive.
Why SIPs?
Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs) were selected for their superior insulation properties and energy efficiency. SIPs construction in Rocky Peak Village townhomes ensures heavily insulated R-40 ceilings and R-24 exterior walls, which significantly enhance the energy efficiency of each home.
Architectural and Interior Features
- Interior Finishes: Homes feature solid wood panel doors & trim, 10’ main level ceilings, rustic interior door hardware, hand-textured walls with eased corners, and superior flooring options including ceramic tile, travertine, slate, or natural stones. Kitchens are equipped with stone or hardwood floors, granite slab counters, and premium quality appliances.
- Efficiency and Convenience: Each townhome includes an oversized finished & heated 2-car garage, low maintenance decking, energy-efficient Low E double-pane windows, insulated entry doors, and high-efficiency natural gas forced-air heating. Homes are also pre-wired for cable TV and phone.
Benefits of SIPs
- Energy Efficiency: The use of SIPs contributes to lower energy bills due to the high R-value insulation in ceilings and walls.
- Sound Insulation: With 5/8" drywall featuring R11 sound insulation, residents enjoy a quieter indoor environment.
- Construction Quality: SIPs provide a high-quality, durable construction framework that enhances the structural integrity of the buildings.
Community Features
