A detached living space creates new possibilities without requiring you to leave the property you already love.

Whether you're caring for loved ones, creating private guest accommodations, adding flexible living space, or simply planning for the future, we help transform your property into a place that serves your family for years to come.

Finding the Right Solution for Your Property

DETACHED LIVING SPACE SOLUTIONS

Every property is different. Every family has different priorities. That's why we don't begin by recommending a specific type of detached living space. We begin by understanding your property, your goals, and the way you want to live. From there, we help you determine the solution that's right for you.

EVERY PROPERTY IS DIFFERENT


Designed for Your Property. Built for Your Community.

Stone Aspen designs and builds detached living spaces throughout Douglas County and communities across the south Denver area.

From established neighborhoods in Littleton, Centennial, Greenwood Village, Cherry Hills Village, Lone Tree, and Highlands Ranch to larger properties throughout Douglas & Elbert County, every project begins by understanding the property and the local requirements that shape what is possible.

From state water requirements and local regulations to zoning, setbacks, utilities, wells, septic systems, propane, and fire requirements, there are many factors to understand before you build.

That's where we begin.

We evaluate your property first so you can move forward with clarity and confidence.

Zoning, setbacks, utilities, access, existing infrastructure, and community requirements can vary significantly from one property to the next. That's why we evaluate the property first—before recommending what to build.
