Our Story
Since 1988, Hartford Homes has been a cornerstone of Northern Colorado—building not just homes, but communities that enrich lives and stand the test of time. For more than 30 years, we’ve been guided by a simple yet powerful mission: to create places that truly make life better for the people who live, work, and grow within them.
From the very beginning, we recognized that a home is more than a structure. It’s where families gather, where milestones are celebrated, and where everyday moments become lifelong memories. That understanding has shaped everything we do—from the neighborhoods we thoughtfully develop, to the homes we carefully craft, to the workplace we cultivate for our team.
With more than 35 communities developed and over 4,000 homes built, Hartford Homes has helped shape the landscape of Northern Colorado. Each home we build is likely the biggest investment a family will ever make—and we don’t take that lightly. That’s why we hold ourselves to a higher standard, ensuring every detail reflects enduring quality, comfort, and intention.
Our homes are where life unfolds. Our communities are where connections are made. And our commitment to this region runs deep—we live here too. As a locally owned and operated company, we believe in building with heart, always putting people first.
At Hartford Homes, we’re not just building homes—we’re building a legacy of care, quality, and community. One neighborhood at a time.
