Cole West is preparing to open model homes for theCAROLINE, a 62-townhome community in Roy near the Roy FrontRunner station. The development sits at 2349 W. 6000 South, with prices starting in the mid-$300,000s, and marks Cole West's entry into the Roy housing market.
Two Floor Plans, Starting Prices in the Mid-$300,000s
As reported by Utah Business, theCAROLINE offers two floor plans ranging from 1,526 to 1,560 square feet, each with three bedrooms, two-and-a-half bathrooms and a two-car garage. The homes feature open layouts and contemporary finishes, and pricing is subject to change at any time. Cole West's own project page for the community describes it as bringing modern townhome living to Roy with open layouts and quality finishes, according to colewest.com.
Chris Winter, president of homebuilding at Cole West, said the company is excited to enter the Roy market and introduce its homebuilding approach, per the same press release. He added that he looks forward to welcoming prospective homebuyers to tour the model homes when they open.
A Location Built Around the FrontRunner Line
A Location Built Around the FrontRunner Line The pitch for theCAROLINE leans heavily on location. The community is near the Roy FrontRunner station, Hill Air Force Base, and local schools, parks, healthcare services, shopping and dining, while Interstate 15 connects residents to employment centers and destinations throughout Weber County and the greater Wasatch Front.
That transit-oriented pitch lines up with planning work already underway in Roy. The city's 2024 Station Area Plan focuses on the half-mile radius extending outward from the Roy FrontRunner station at 4155 South Sandridge Drive, according to Roy City. The plan's market analysis found the station area could become an employment hub for Roy, with small-scale office space and additional multifamily housing feasible in the short term.
Projected Retail Growth Near the Station
The station-area plan identifies retail sectors like building and garden supply dealers, health and personal care stores, furniture and home furnishing stores, electronics and appliance stores, and food services as having the largest projected growth rates in the surrounding half-mile radius between 2023 and 2028.
Part of a Broader Utah Expansion
theCAROLINE adds to Cole West's residential development portfolio in northern Utah, which already includes theHazel, Lone Tree and Saltrock communities. The company describes itself as a privately held, locally owned and operated Utah-based real estate development company, and separately as a fully integrated real estate firm focused on land, development, construction and design. Cole West is based in Centerville and says it specializes in homebuilding, multifamily housing, master-planned communities, retail, mixed-use development and strategic real estate projects across northern and southern Utah as well as Dallas, Texas.
The company says it is guided by the belief that it builds community, and that it adapts its business plan to evolving conditions and emerging opportunities while using a flexible investment strategy to selectively hold or monetize assets for long-term growth. Cole West has been active elsewhere in the state too: late last month, the company grand-opened The Club, a community in Washington, Utah overlooking Coral Canyon Golf Club, as part of what it calls its continued expansion in Washington County. That project comprises 60 detached single-family homes with floor plans ranging from 3,150 to 4,800 square feet, with lot prices beginning in the high $200,000s and the option for buyers to build with Cole West or bring their own custom builder.
