Thrive Home Builders brings more than 30 years of homebuilding to the Frequency Collection at Lyric at RidgeGate™. We sat down with CEO Stephen Myers to talk about where Thrive started, what home should feel like, and why Lyric is such a natural fit.
Here’s what he had to say.
What inspired Thrive’s focus on sustainability and innovation?
It goes back to our founder, my dad, Gene Myers. When Gene started building homes in the Denver metro more than 30 years ago, his goal was simple: help people bring their energy bills down. Innovation isn’t a department at Thrive. It’s how we work. We do it because it’s the right thing to do, and it matters to us.
What should home feel like for today’s homeowner?
Home should feel safe. It should be the place where you exhale at the end of the day, where your family feels settled, and where you can just be yourself. The work we do behind the walls, like fresh, filtered air, is there so you never have to think about it.
What’s the long-term payoff of owned solar for prospective buyers?
The short answer is peace of mind. Every home comes with its own solar, owned by the homeowner, not leased, and our homes are efficient enough that monthly utility bills stay low. That means a little more room in the budget for the things you love, whether that’s dinner at The Groove™ or a weekend in the mountains.
What makes the homes in the Frequency Collection at Lyric so unique?
It starts with the design. These are three-story rowhomes with balconies on the second and third levels, so you can step outside with your morning coffee, take in the views, or catch the sunset at the end of the day. The layouts are open and full of light, with room to work from home, space to host friends, and a flow that makes everyday life easy. Our homes sit right along the new regional park, with The Groove, the pool and the fitness center close by.
What does it mean to Thrive to be building at Lyric?
Honestly, we’re grateful. Lyric is one of those communities you feel the moment you arrive. People are out walking, kids are playing, neighbors are getting to know each other. It’s a place built around connection, and it’s an honor to be part of it. For us, the goal has always been to build homes that do more for the people who live in them. We couldn’t ask for a better place to do it, and we can’t wait to welcome more neighbors home.
