Boulder County’s Most Refined New Townhome Community
Montmere at Autrey Shores is the kind of development that earns the word “luxury” honestly. Developed by Koelbel & Company — Colorado’s longest-operating family-owned real estate firm with more than 72 years of building in the state — Montmere is a community of 94 townhomes across 20 buildings on Lakeshore Lane in east Superior, positioned directly adjacent to Autrey Reservoir with waterfront views on one side and unobstructed Flatirons panoramas on the other. The Home Builders Association of Metro Denver honored the community with a MAME Award for Attached Home of the Year in 2024 for the G Plan — a recognition that reflects the architectural care and interior quality Koelbel brought to every home type in the development.
Floor plans run from 1,460 to 2,979 square feet across six options — two-bedroom plans with two-car tandem garages, three-bedroom plans with expanded living levels, and the flagship G Plan with four bedrooms, four and a half baths, a private elevator, a three-car EV-ready garage, and 2,979 square feet of finished space including a multi-generational guest suite. Top-tier units feature Wolf appliances, an 11-foot kitchen island, engineered hardwood floors, quartz countertops, dual-zone HVAC, 45-inch gas fireplaces, and lakefront balconies. Every home in the community has been designed with indoor-outdoor connection as a core design priority — rooftop decks on applicable plans, balconies oriented toward the water or the mountains, and fenced outdoor living areas at the entry level.
The community’s setting amplifies what the homes offer. Superior’s 596 acres of greenspace and 27 miles of hiking trails are accessible directly from the neighborhood. Autrey Dog Park is adjacent. Frank Varra Park is nearby. The Coal Creek Trail and Lake Link Trail connect Montmere to the regional trail system. LifeTime Fitness and Safeway are less than a tenth of a mile away. Flatiron Crossing Mall with its shopping, dining, and entertainment options is a short walk. For buyers who want luxury finishes, waterfront views, and a lock-and-leave lifestyle in a location that requires almost no car trips for daily life, Montmere’s combination of amenities is genuinely uncommon in Boulder County at any price point.
Between Denver and Boulder — Walking Distance to Everything Daily
Montmere at Autrey Shores sits on Lakeshore Lane in east Superior — a position that makes it one of the most walkable residential addresses in the town. LifeTime Fitness is 0.06 miles away. Safeway is 0.06 miles. Flatiron Crossing Mall with its restaurants, shops, and entertainment is a short walk. For commuters, US-36 is immediately accessible with Boulder approximately 10 miles northwest and central Denver 20 to 25 miles southeast. The Flatiron Flyer express bus and RTD SkyRide to Denver International Airport both operate from the McCaslin Park-and-Ride nearby — Superior is identified as a US-36 and McCaslin BRT station location, making Montmere one of the more transit-connected residential addresses on the Front Range.
Old Town Louisville is approximately 5 minutes east for residents who want access to Louisville’s Main Street dining scene. Rock Creek Ranch’s trail system is accessible by bike. The combination of walkable retail and dining immediately adjacent, quick US-36 access in both directions, and trail connectivity to the broader Superior open space network makes Montmere’s location among the strongest daily-life propositions the community offers — alongside the views.

Montmere’s waterfront position on Autrey Reservoir is the community’s defining outdoor advantage. Views across the water to the mountains are present from balconies, rooftop decks, and main living levels throughout the community. The reservoir adjacency and the trail network connecting to 596 acres of Superior greenspace gives Montmere buyers the outdoor access that most luxury developments in the Front Range only describe in marketing materials — here it is literally out the front door.
Education at Montmere at Autrey Shores
Montmere at Autrey Shores is served by Boulder Valley School District (BVSD). Because of the community’s position on Superior’s eastern edge near the Broomfield border, the specific elementary and middle school assignment may differ from the Eldorado K-8 pipeline that serves most of Superior. Buyers with school-age children should verify their exact school assignment directly with BVSD before purchasing.
All Superior addresses are served by BVSD. School attendance boundaries vary by address — always verify your specific K–8 school assignment directly with BVSD before purchasing. Montmere’s eastern Superior location may place it in a different elementary feeder than other Superior neighborhoods. Open enrollment within BVSD is available to all families.
Where Montmere Residents Eat
Montmere’s walkable position adjacent to Flatiron Crossing Mall gives residents a dining variety that most Superior neighborhoods can only access by car. The combination of walkable retail dining, the growing Downtown Superior commercial district a short drive west, and Old Town Louisville 5 minutes east covers nearly every dining need and occasion without planning or a long drive.
Central Texas-style smokehouse voted Best BBQ in Colorado by Westword and Thrillist — brisket sold by the pound with a coffee-hued bark and a pink smoke ring that needs no sauce, alongside candied pork belly, St. Louis ribs, homemade beef sausage, and smoked fish. Open Friday and Saturday only, 11am until the meat runs out. Arrive early or go home empty-handed.
Handcrafted soup dumplings, pan-fried pork buns, black truffle xiaolongbao, beef noodle soup, scallion pancakes, and boba tea made fresh daily on McCaslin Boulevard. The kind of place Louisville residents describe as a hidden gem before catching themselves — it’s not hidden anymore, but the quality still earns the reaction.
Louisville’s 1904 landmark saloon — Colorado’s oldest continuously active tavern — is approximately 5 minutes east of Montmere. The Koelbel website specifically calls out 740 Front as a destination Montmere residents use regularly, which reflects how close the Old Town Louisville dining scene is to this community.
The Huckleberry’s brunch and inventive crepes are a Koelbel-listed destination for Montmere residents — a short drive east into Old Town Louisville and one of the natural Saturday morning options for residents who have finished a LifeTime Fitness session and want a quality café follow-up.
Naturally leavened breads and serious pastries in Old Town Louisville — a short drive from Montmere and a Koelbel-listed recommendation for the community. The kind of morning-coffee-and-pastry stop that pairs naturally with a reservoir-side walk and makes the Montmere Saturday morning routine feel genuinely civilized.
Colorado’s most beloved neighborhood ice cream parlor is a short drive from Montmere — another Koelbel-listed resident destination. An easy after-dinner destination on summer evenings when the reservoir walk is done and a seasonal flavor rotation is the obvious next move.
Life at Montmere at Autrey Shores
Montmere residents describe their community in terms that reflect what Koelbel built intentionally: a lock-and-leave townhome lifestyle with views that don’t require leaving home to appreciate, walking distance to fitness and grocery, quick access to both Boulder and Denver, and construction quality that distinguishes itself from the market in concrete ways every day rather than just at the sale. The MAME Award confirms the external judgment. The residents confirm the experience.
Waterfront views of Autrey Reservoir and unobstructed Flatirons panoramas from balconies, rooftop decks, and main living levels — not a premium upgrade on select units but a defining feature of the community’s orientation. The kind of view that makes getting out of bed on a Tuesday morning feel like a specific decision rather than a default.
The Home Builders Association of Metro Denver’s MAME Award for Attached Home of the Year — a peer recognition from the industry that evaluates architectural quality, design integrity, interior finish level, and overall community presentation. For buyers comparing Montmere to other new construction luxury townhomes in Boulder County, the award provides an externally validated benchmark.
Montmere is designed for the buyer who wants to close the door without worrying about what they come back to — HOA maintenance, EV-ready garages on select units, private elevators on upper plans, and modern dual-zone HVAC and smart thermostat systems throughout. The lock-and-leave proposition is built into the product rather than bolted onto it.
Top-tier Montmere plans feature Wolf appliances, 11-foot kitchen islands, quartz countertops, engineered hardwood floors, and 45-inch gas fireplaces — a finish specification that matches what comparable square footage costs in Boulder proper, at a meaningfully different price. The G Plan, which won the 2024 MAME award, is the community’s benchmark for what Koelbel’s design standard produces when fully expressed.
LifeTime Fitness at 0.06 miles. Safeway at 0.06 miles. Flatiron Crossing a short walk. This is a rare daily-life proposition for a residential community in Boulder County: the combination of luxury finishes, waterfront views, and genuine walkability to fitness, grocery, and dining in one address. Most luxury developments in the county offer two of the three.
Koelbel & Company is Colorado’s longest-operating family-owned real estate development firm — 72+ years of building in the state with a reputation built on what happens after closing, not just before it. For luxury buyers who have navigated new construction builders with inconsistent warranty and service records, the Koelbel name carries meaning that a single MAME Award doesn’t fully capture.
