Parks within walking distance and expansive natural areas nearby

A paved path runs parallel to Himalaya Street and connects to Blue Grama Grass Park in Conservatory and Spring Creek Park in Spring Creek Meadows. The parks are within a 20-minute walking radius, and both have playgrounds and athletic facilities. Aurora’s Soccer Skills Area is connected to Blue Grama Grass Park. Spring Creek Park offers baseball and multipurpose fields. Nature trails wind through the Plains Conservation Center’s open prairie, about a 5-minute drive away. Aurora Reservoir is in Southeast Aurora, about 15 minutes away. “It’s a spring-fed water supply with cold, clear water,” says Douglas Hauck, an award-winning broker at Re/Max Professionals in Englewood. “It has a beach there, and there’s a trail that goes all around it, which is great for biking and running.”

Aurora Reservoir is popular with fishermen and kayakers alike.

Denver commutes and a direct route to the airport

Mayfair is about a 5-minute drive to Extension 470, a toll road that runs through the southern and eastern regions of the Denver metro area. The route travels directly to the Denver International Airport, about 20 minutes away. Denver’s Central Business District is downtown and is approximately a 40-minute commute. Mayfair’s location within Aurora is also appealing for outdoor recreation enthusiasts, according to Dassinger. “As soon as you start getting further into some more stuff to do here, I think that's what people like the most, is that you have a way to jump on the highway and you can get out to the mountains of the foothills or to some big sledding hills and things like that,” Dassinger says.
