About

A private-client standard applied to the residential experience.

Why Avenhurst is the right choice

Before founding Avenhurst, Stephen and Summer Price had already guided multiple residential projects from design and builder selection through construction, landscaping, and interiors. Their Castle Rock home was so distinctive that it was selected for multiple television, commercial and video productions.

Stephen combines fifteen years serving high-net-worth clients with the commercial discipline of a successful entrepreneur and CEO. Summer brings twelve years of residential real-estate experience, her own entrepreneurial success and an exceptional instinct for interior design.

Avenhurst brings those strengths together to provide one trusted relationship across the complete residential journey.

We created Avenhurst from firsthand experience

Before Avenhurst existed, Stephen and Summer Price were already doing the work it now offers.

Together, they created a highly considered custom home in Castle Rock, Colorado, guiding it from the earliest design decisions and builder selection through construction oversight, change orders, landscaping, interiors and the final details that made the home feel complete. The finished property attracted location scouts and was selected for multiple television, commercial and video productions.

The experience reinforced something they had recognized over several residential projects: the process most people find pressured, fragmented and exhausting is one they genuinely enjoy. They are equally comfortable evaluating a builder, challenging a change order, refining a floor plan, selecting materials or resolving how landscape and interiors should relate to the architecture.

Avenhurst brings those complementary strengths together. Stephen provides strategic oversight, commercial discipline and project advocacy. Summer brings residential insight, design direction and a deep understanding of how a home should look, feel and function. They created Avenhurst to give clients the continuity they repeatedly found missing from the traditional residential process: one trusted relationship connecting the property, the professionals, the design and the finished home.

Acquisition, contracts and project stewardship

Stephen Price is an entrepreneur, chief executive and private-client adviser with extensive experience managing complex relationships and significant projects.

He is experienced in evaluating partners, negotiating contracts, managing budgets, resolving problems and maintaining accountability from initial strategy through completion.

Interior design, selections and client experience

Summer Price is an entrepreneur, residential adviser and interior designer with twelve years of experience in Colorado real estate. Her real-estate background developed her understanding of property, client priorities and the emotional complexity of significant residential decisions. Years spent building and serving her own loyal client base also established the highly personal and intuitive approach she brings to every engagement.

Summer has an exceptional eye for proportion, color, material and detail. Her design approach begins with the architecture, setting and way the client wants to live, producing interiors that feel personal and resolved rather than imposed. Within Avenhurst, Summer guides the residential and design experience so decisions across the property, construction and furnishing process contribute to one coherent home.

We are aligned with the homeowner

Avenhurst is engaged by the client and approaches every recommendation from the client's perspective. We do not work for the builder, steer clients toward a preferred broker or allow a vendor relationship to determine the advice. Where brokerage, contracting, engineering, architecture or another regulated service is required, the work is performed by the appropriately licensed professional under the proper agreement.

Begin with the residential brief.

Every engagement starts with a private conversation about the move, the property and the outcome—not with a listing or predefined package.
