About V-Esprit

Gaze at the jagged, deep blue, snow-capped peaks of the Rocky Mountains from the comfort of your patio home or apartment on a spacious 14-acre, 100-unit campus in Aurora, Colorado. As a luxury 55-plus independent living community, nestled on rolling hills, V-Esprit offers older adults the opportunity to maintain their freedom while residing in a supportive community. Start living your latest adventure by joining us at the V-Esprit campus. Take your buddies to the links on one of Aurora’s six public golf courses. Explore nearby Cherry Creek State Park on your paddleboard, or take in nature on the scenic hiking trails. Traverse the wide-open spaces in the park on horseback. The choices are many, and they are yours. Situated near Buckley Space Force Base and the Rocky Mountain Regional Veterans Affairs Medical Center, our location offers veterans and their spouses with proximity to the military community and retiree resources. At V-Esprit, you can be close to everything — while still enjoying life on a campus nestled away in oak and aspen trees, just off-the-beaten-path.

Worth the Wait

I love living here and have done so for 3 months. The staff is outstanding--they are filled with positive energy and are always ready to help. There is a wide variety of activities and an impressive amount of them. This active adult senior community is VERY well-organized and well run. The residents are VERY friendly and speak very highly about living here. I love my apartment--a one bedroom. The kitchen is the most convenient and beautiful of any kitchen in which I have cooked. Whoever designed it did a great

They have a waiting list but it is well managed. The staff and the location and the lack of having to pay for food service.

I LOVE it here!! Just moved into my Villa last Monday, but stayed in a patio home while my place was completed for 2 months. I love how the community, staff and residents all support each other. Management really cares and respects their staff members and the residents. The food is okay, but food is optional and it can be ordered as you want it and delivered to you! There are apartments, patio homes and the new Villas where I am living. At even the most expensive accommodations, I still consider it value for the mo

Highly Recommended

It is specifically a 55+ active senior living community, so no meals are included. There is a small bistro open for lunch weekdays that is super reasonable, though. In my Mom's case, it was just a better fit than independent senior living. The staff is wonderful and very responsive. There are so many activities she can sign up for that my Mom never gets bored. We highly recommend V-Esprit!

a great place for a loved one

This community gives your loved one independence, but also a very caring and positive environment. The community had done a wonderful job keeping the residence engaged even during covid. I would recommend this community to others. My loved one loves this community.
