The Cordera Community is a 625 acre, master-planned community that is expected to be completed in 2016. A total of 1,400 homes are going to be built in this subdivision of Colorado Springs. The Cordera community can be seen as you are driving along Powers Blvd., but it is best to see the community up close if you really want to get a feel for it!
Cordera is situated in School District 20 with the new Chinook Trail Elementary School located right in the Cordera community. The new school currently accommodates students from K-5 and may possibly expand to grades K-8. The elementary school focuses on International Studies and children have the opportunity to learn Mandarin Chinese starting in Kindergarten.

Each home is 100% Energy Star Certified and offers 360° views of unique architecture (not just the front of the home). Lots vary in size and can be between 6,000-15,000 square feet. Check out what each builder has to offer. Campbell Homes is currently offering free landscaping (front and backyard) to home buyers in Colorado Springs.
