Table Mesa combines suburban charm with convenience

About 4 miles south of downtown Boulder, Table Mesa is an expansive neighborhood situated along the western foothills and surrounded by open space. Single-family homes and townhouses are filed along tree-lined streets and come in a variety of styles. Residents enjoy the community’s convenient access to amenities. Top-rated schools and a shopping center are a short drive from most homes, while parks and green spaces are scattered throughout the area.

A range of housing prices and styles

Homes in Table Mesa have a median sales price of around $1.1 million, which is a little higher than that of the city, around $950,000. “The home prices on a price-per-square-foot basis are probably the middle of the market for the city of Boulder,” says Brett Sawyer, a Realtor with Kentwood Real Estate, who has over 20 years of experience and grew up in the area.

The neighborhood is split into different areas with a range of homes. Midcentury ranch-style homes and split levels are common in Lower Table Mesa, along with townhouses and condos in Shanahan Ridge. The multi-family properties range in price from the lower $600,000s to the lower $900,000s. Upper Table Mesa and subdivisions like Devil’s Thumb have semi-custom, multistory Craftsman homes, which get larger and more spaced out the closer they are to the mountains. These properties cost between $1.1 million and $2.4 million. “[Table Mesa] has affordable areas, and a middle range, and some higher-priced homes that sit on the ridge and have a nice view of the flatirons,” says Barry Remington, a real estate agent with WK Real Estate, who grew up in the area and has about 15 years of experience.

Trails, parks and other outdoor activities in Table Mesa

With Table Mesa’s location at the base of the foothills, residents have access to plenty of outdoor activities. “The recreational opportunities are quite favorable,” Sawyer says. “It’s just full of hiking trails.” Shanahan Trail and Bear Canyon Trail both have entry points in the neighborhood and allow hiking and horseback riding. Additionally, there are a handful of city parks in Table Mesa:

  • Harlow Platts Community Park has a pickleball court, disc-golf course and inline hockey rink. Its walking paths surround Viele Lake.
  • Bill Bower Park features a nature-themed playground.
  • Bear Creek Park allows slacklining.
The Table Mesa Community Garden is located next to the Community United Church and lets you grow your own fruits and vegetables. When it comes to indoor facilities, the South Boulder Recreation Center has a pool and drop-in basketball court.

Commuting around Boulder by bike, bus and car

Commuters have multiple methods for getting around Table Mesa. Main roads such as Table Mesa Drive and Lehigh Street have bike lanes, and Colorado’s Regional Transportation District (RTD) has a local bus service. “You have great access here,” Remington says. “They have a good bus route system if you want to get to Downtown Boulder.”

Those who drive can access Colorado Highway 93, known as Broadway, and take it about 4 miles north into downtown. Depending on the time of day, the journey takes between 10 and 20 minutes. CO 93 also travels south to Golden, around 17 miles away. Heading into Denver requires connecting to U.S. Route 36, then traveling southeast roughly 27 miles.

Table Mesa’s dining and shopping amenities

The Table Mesa Shopping Center is the neighborhood’s main source for retail and dining. Whole Foods Market and King Soopers are grocery store options, and there are multiple outdoor equipment and sporting goods stores like Runners Roost and Neptune Mountaineering. There are also a handful of chain and local restaurants, such as:

  • South Side Walnut Cafe, with its homestyle breakfast meals
  • Illegal Pete’s, known for its burritos
  • Tandoori Grill, with its traditional Indian cuisine
  • Southern Sun Pub & Brewery, which has house brews and small bites
“You wander over there on a Saturday afternoon, and you have people on the outside patios […] it’s a very cool social hub,” Sawyer says. For more options, residents can head north to Baseline Road’s commercial corridor over by the University of Colorado Boulder.
