Rigden Farm · Fort Collins, Colorado · Home remodeling
Home remodeling in Rigden Farm. Builder-grade, made your own.
Rigden Farm is a 310-acre master-planned community in east Fort Collins, planned for about 1,100 homes around a central farm-themed park and a neighborhood village center. Construction started in late 1999.
That makes most Rigden Farm homes 20 to 25 years old: solid houses with builder-grade kitchens and baths that are ready for an upgrade, and many with unfinished basements waiting to be used.

What Rigden Farm homeowners call about
Builder kitchens from the early 2000s usually have laminate counters, basic cabinets and limited lighting. Swapping to quartz, new cabinet fronts or full new cabinets, and adding lighting changes the room without moving walls.
Many homes have full basements that were left unfinished. Finishing one adds a family room, bedroom and bath for far less than moving.
Exterior changes in a planned community often need design review. We provide drawings and material details for your HOA submittal.
