Trilogy Centerra
Loveland, Colorado · Larimer County
Trilogy Centerra is Shea Homes' first Trilogy-branded 55-and-older community in Colorado, planned within the Kinston neighborhood of the larger, 3,000-acre Centerra master-planned community in Loveland. The community is planned for approximately 543 homes across 11 floorplans from Shea Homes' Freedom Collection, ranging from roughly 1,430 to 3,090 square feet, with pricing starting in the low $500,000s. Plans include a 6,500-square-foot private Wellness + Social Club with a restaurant and full bar, a resort-style pool with lap lanes, a movement studio, fitness equipment, an event lawn, and pickleball courts. As of the last update, Trilogy Centerra is in an active pre-sales marketing phase — the community has been formally announced, has a dedicated sales presence (the Kinston Hub at 6402 Union Creek Drive, Loveland, CO 80538), and is publishing floorplans and pricing, but home sales had not yet formally opened, with sales reported to begin later in 2026.

Overview
Independent Assessment
Trilogy Centerra is confirmed as a genuine, officially announced Shea Homes Trilogy 55+ community, corroborated by Shea Homes' own dedicated community page, an official press release, and Centerra's own master-plan site. Because the community was still in its pre-sales marketing phase as of the most recent review (September 2026), it is treated differently from a fully operational community: Shea Homes has already published floorplans, pricing, and a sales-center address, and is actively marketing the community as its first Colorado Trilogy project, which is treated as genuine active marketing rather than a mere pre-announcement; however, sales had not yet formally opened, no model homes were confirmed complete, and no homes had been delivered as of that review. Buyers should treat the information here as describing an early-phase, pre-delivery active-adult community and should confirm current sales status, model-home availability, and firm pricing directly with Shea Homes before making decisions.
Who May Find This Community Appealing
Buyers who want to be among the first residents of a brand-new, nationally recognized Trilogy 55+ community, with input into available lots and floorplans early in the build-out, are a strong fit for Trilogy Centerra. Its location within the broader, already-established Centerra master plan in Loveland — with existing shopping, dining, and the Promenade Shops nearby — also appeals to buyers who want a new-construction 55+ home without being in an entirely undeveloped area.
Homes & Prices
Homes, Builders & Development History
Shea Homes publicly announced Trilogy Centerra as its first Trilogy-branded community in Colorado, to be built within the Kinston neighborhood of the Centerra master plan in Loveland. The community is planned for approximately 543 homesites across 11 floorplans from the Freedom Collection, ranging from approximately 1,430 to 3,090 square feet, with single-level designs offering loft options, 2-4 bedrooms, 2-3 bathrooms, and 2-3 car garages. At the time of the last update, Shea Homes had established a sales presence (the Kinston Hub) but had not yet opened homes for sale, with sales expected to begin later in 2026.
Current Pricing & Market Positioning
Shea Homes has published starting pricing for Trilogy Centerra in the low $500,000s. Because the community has not yet formally opened for sales as of the most recent review, final pricing by floorplan, lot, and phase remains subject to change; buyers should request current, confirmed pricing directly from the Kinston Hub sales team before making purchase decisions.
New Construction vs. Resale Considerations
As of the most recent review, Trilogy Centerra is entirely new construction and had not yet formally opened for sales, so no resale market exists. Buyers interested in an early position should confirm current reservation, deposit, and contract terms directly with the Kinston Hub sales office, and should expect firm pricing, model-home availability, and delivery timelines to be confirmed only once sales formally open later in 2026.

Fees
HOA Fees, Capital Contributions & Recurring Costs
A specific monthly HOA fee for Trilogy Centerra could not be found in public sources, consistent with the community's pre-sales stage. Shea Homes' Trilogy communities nationally are typically structured with an HOA funding a private clubhouse and lifestyle programming; buyers should request current projected dues and coverage directly from Shea Homes once available.
Taxes, Insurance & Special Assessments
Homes in Trilogy Centerra will be subject to Larimer County property tax at the county's current mill levy, along with any applicable City of Loveland municipal charges and the Centerra-area metropolitan-district mill levies that fund the master plan's shared infrastructure and amenities. Colorado offers a Senior Property Tax Exemption for qualifying long-term homeowners age 65 and older, a state-level benefit separate from this community's 55+ HOA eligibility threshold. Buyers should confirm the current combined mill levy, applicable metropolitan-district assessments, and senior exemption eligibility directly with the Larimer County Assessor's Office.
Amenities
Community Layout & Lifestyle
Trilogy Centerra is planned as a boutique, wellness-focused 55+ community centered on its private club, consistent with the national Trilogy brand's curated lifestyle programming. Because the community had not yet opened for sales at the last update, its layout, phasing, and day-to-day lifestyle remain largely prospective; early buyers should expect the experience of a ground-floor community still establishing its physical amenities and resident base rather than an already-settled neighborhood.
Location
Shopping, Healthcare & Airport Access
Trilogy Centerra is planned within the Kinston neighborhood of the Centerra master plan in Loveland, Colorado, just east of Interstate 25 off US Highway 34, near a referenced sales-center address of 6402 Union Creek Drive, Loveland, CO 80538. The location offers convenient access to I-25, downtown Loveland, and Centerra's existing Promenade Shops and dining, within the broader Fort Collins-Loveland corridor.
Restrictions
Age Qualification & Material Ownership Restrictions
Trilogy Centerra is announced and marketed by Shea Homes as a Trilogy-branded 55+ community, consistent with the national Trilogy brand's nationwide practice of age-restricting its communities under the federal Housing for Older Persons Act (HOPA) framework, which requires at least one resident age 55 or older in at least 80% of occupied homes community-wide. Buyers should confirm current age-verification procedures and exact restriction language directly with Shea Homes; the specific recorded covenant text for this Larimer County subdivision was not independently reviewed and may not yet be finalized given the community's pre-sales stage.
Pros & Tradeoffs
Tradeoffs & Limitations
Because Trilogy Centerra had not yet formally opened for sales as of the last update, buyers should expect that pricing, HOA fees, model-home timing, and the exact final home count could all still change before the community fully launches, and should treat every figure as preliminary. Buyers considering an early reservation should confirm Shea Homes' current deposit, contract, and cancellation terms directly, since pre-sales processes for not-yet-selling communities can carry different terms than standard purchase contracts. As with any new-construction community, buyers should also expect ongoing nearby construction activity for a period of years once sales and building do begin.
Comparison With Nearby Communities
Within the Northern Colorado 55+ market, Trilogy Centerra will be the area's first nationally branded Trilogy community once sales open, positioned within the same broader Centerra master plan as the smaller, already-established Lakeshore at Centerra condominium community, though the two are separate developments from different builders with different housing types and neither is affiliated with McWhinney's separate, non-age-restricted 'The Lakes at Centerra' neighborhood nearby. Buyers who want a brand-new single-family Trilogy home with a private wellness club, and are comfortable buying ahead of a community's full build-out, should watch Trilogy Centerra's sales opening, while buyers who want an already-established, resale-ready condominium may prefer Lakeshore at Centerra or Loveland's smaller Country Lake Villas.
