Features.
Open, Flowing Layout
Kestrel Ridge is built with a spacious, open concept, inviting ample natural light and enhancing the connection between the interior and the outdoor environment. The integration of large windows allows for panoramic vistas from virtually every room, fostering a sense of continuity between the interior spaces and the expansive landscape. The flow between the living, dining, and outdoor areas creates a dynamic and flexible living environment, ideal for both relaxation and entertaining.
Sustainable Design
Kestrel Ridge takes sustainability to heart. The design incorporates cutting-edge energy-efficient systems, passive solar techniques, and sustainable materials, ensuring the home’s low environmental impact while maintaining a high standard of comfort. High-performance insulation and strategic window placement maximize energy efficiency, allowing the home to stay cool in the summer and warm in the winter, even in the harsh desert climate.
Outdoor Integration
The outdoor spaces at Kestrel Ridge are designed to complement the unique, arid landscape of Grand Junction. Carefully planned desert landscaping and the expansive terrace provide outdoor living areas that seamlessly blend into the environment. The striking visual contrast of the home against the rugged surroundings creates an inviting and serene space, where residents can enjoy the open air and sweeping views of the valley and surrounding mesas.
