As the Inland Empire continues to grow, buyers are increasingly prioritizing new construction townhomes for their efficiency, low maintenance, and long-term financial benefits. At Ascent at Colton, these advantages come together in a gated community that offers both modern living and strategic location — all at a price point that’s still within reach for many first-time homebuyers.
New Construction Means Predictable Costs & Lower Maintenance
Older homes often come with hidden repairs or outdated systems that can lead to ongoing expenses.At Ascent at Colton, buyers appreciate:
Brand-new building systems
Rooftop solar included (energy savings!)
Modern materials and long-life finishes
New appliances and construction warranties
It’s a smart way to avoid major upfront repairs and unpredictable maintenance.
A Commuter-Friendly Location for Riverside, Loma Linda & the 10/215 Corridors
Buyers who work across the Inland Empire value how central the location is:
≈ 6 minutes to Loma Linda University Medical Center
≈ 10 minutes to Arrowhead Regional Medical Center
≈ 15 minutes to Riverside employment centers
Immediate access to the 10 and 215 freeways
For dual-commuter households, the time savings quickly add up.
Modern Floorplans Designed for Today’s Lifestyles
Ascent offers five unique floorplans, ranging from 2 to 4 bedrooms and 2 to 3.5 bathrooms — ideal for:
Young professionals
Medical residents
Growing families
Multi-generational living
Remote workers who need an office or flex space
Open layouts, natural light, and contemporary finishes make the homes feel spacious and inviting.
Community Amenities That Add Daily Value
The gated neighborhood provides more than just security — it enhances everyday living with:
A resort-style swimming pool
Lounge + dining areas
Modern landscaping
Sidewalks and internal pathways
Neighborhood privacy and calm
For many buyers, these amenities would be unattainable in a similarly priced resale home.
Final Phase Selling Now — Only 9 Homes Left
With pricing beginning in the mid $400Ks, Ascent at Colton remains one of the Inland Empire’s most attainable new-construction opportunities.
Current close-out incentives include:
✔ $10,000 toward closing costs for qualified buyers
✔ Appliance package: fridge, washer & dryer on select homes
✔ Move-in ready inventory with immediate availability
These incentives are limited and tied to year-end purchase timelines.
Why Colton? Why Now?
The city is emerging as a quiet, commuter-friendly hub with increasing demand due to:
Growth in healthcare employment
Strengthening Riverside and Redlands job corridors
The rising cost of resale homes in nearby cities
Scarcity of new construction townhome communities
Buyers looking for long-term value are choosing new builds over older resale properties because of energy efficiency, warranties, and future-proof design.
