Candlelight Ridge

By Jessica Carcoana · Updated September 2026

A custom-home neighborhood atop a rolling mesa just off Erie Parkway and N 119th Street. Sopris Homes and RT Homes built luxury residences from 3,153 to 6,628 square feet with generous lots backing to open space. Spectacular Front Range views come standard, and the BVSD school assignment (Meadowlark, Centaurus) is a significant draw.
