Boulder Real Estate

Boulder neighborhoods offer a diverse set of amenities to local residents.  According to a recent report from Zillow.com (see shart to the left), median single-family Boulder real estate values at the end of 2009 ranged from a low of $434,200 in South Boulder, to a high of $634,900 in Central Boulder.  The overall median single-family home price for the City of Boulder was $495,700.  We discussed these Boulder home-price trends in a previous blog post.

South Boulder neighborhoods offer home buyers a wide range of single-family home prices from smaller, post-war Martin Acres homes to coveted Chautauqua homes just a short walk to Chautauqua Park and the Boulder's Flatirons, open space and trails.  Central Boulder neighborhoods like Whittier, offer convenience, charm, some of Boulder's finest homes and highest home prices.  North Boulder neighborhoods like Newlands and Dakota Ridge, offer access to the popular North Boulder Park at 9th and Dellwood, open space, trailheads, and more.

Further north in Boulder County just off Highway 36, you'll find the golf-course communities of Lake Valley and North Rim.  These "sister" communities are built around the Lake Valley Golf Course and offer big lots, open space and Flatiron views, trails, a private lake and beach, playgrounds, tennis and basketball courts, and more.  These 2 Boulder Valley neighborhoods used to be considered as part of Niwot as they were served by Niwot Schools, but are now generally considered Longmont neighborhoods that are served by Silver Creek High School in southwest Longmont.

In Niwot, three of the more prominant Boulder County neighborhoods are Somerset, Niwot Hills and Waterford.  And the popular neighborhood closest to Longmont but still served by Niwot High School, is Creekside.

Boulder neighborhoods are diverse, offer a fairly wide range of home styles, age and amenities, and really do offer something for everyone.  Feel free to use our Boulder home resources to research and find the best Boulder Valley neighborhood for you, and if you have any questions about Boulder real estate, please call us at 303-441-5647 or visit us at www.boulderhomeresource.com.
