Big news for Avon: Phase I of the Village at Avon is officially moving forward, with a summer 2026 groundbreaking now in sight.

The first phase, planned for the northeast corner of Beaver Creek Boulevard and Chapel Place, includes a new Whole Foods, Skjól luxury condominiums, and additional retail space.

This is part of the larger Village at Avon district, which has been in the works for years and continues to take shape with housing, hospitality, and community-focused development already underway.

A few of the other projects in motion there include Buffalo Ridge, Piedmont Apartments, Bosk Apartments, the dual-brand Marriott, and the Vail Valley Foundation’s early childhood education center.

For locals, this is one of those developments worth paying attention to. It’s a meaningful piece of Avon’s continued growth — and likely one of the most watched projects in the Valley over the next few years.
