Lexington Estates
Lexington Estates offers a slice of suburbia in a serene northeast Colorado setting. “Proximity to Boulder and Denver is a draw for residents,” says Joy Castillo of LIV Sotheby’s International Realty, “but one of the main reasons people come to Lexington Estates is for easy access to open spaces and amazing Rocky Mountain views.”
Spacious homes and open layouts lend to the plein-air lifestyle in Lexington Estates. Craftsman tri-level homes and rambling designs commonly feature large windows to take in the Colorado scenery, while neutral tones and stone accents compliment the natural surroundings. Single-family detached houses with two- to three-car garages are the most common in the neighborhood, but there are also some townhomes. “You have everything from high-density subdivisions with single-family homes to big estates on one-acre lots,” Castillo says, adding that prices can range between town houses for $500,000 to estates fetching $4 million. The median price for real estate in Lexington Estates is $1 million, and homebuyers can expect to pay an average of $316 per square foot.
Castillo says Broomfield’s highly rated schools are also a big draw for residents. Students in Lexington Estates may get their education within the Adams 12 Five Star Schools, ranked the seventh best school district in the Denver area by Niche. Meridian Elementary School serves kindergarten through fifth grade, while sixth through eighth graders can attend Rocky Top Middle School. With an A- overall Niche rating, Legacy High School is recognized by the Colorado Department of Education as a high-achieving and high-growth institution. Freshmen through seniors can participate in the Legacy 2000 Program, which focuses on student-driven studies, job shadowing and internships in STEM.
Residents take advantage of the area’s open spaces at the various parks and natural amenities, including McKay Lake, where bird-watching, canoeing, and kayaking are popular activities. In the summer, you might find a few people swimming in its chilly waters or camping by its shores. The Rocky Mountains provide a breathtaking backdrop to walkers and runners who enjoy the 1.7-mile loop that hugs along the edge of the lake. Kids can climb and play on the neutral structures of McKay Lake Park’s playground, designed to blend in with the landscape or let their imaginations take off at the space-themed playground at Quail’s Crossing Park. Residents take to the many nearby trails for longer hikes, including the 13.3-mile Big Dry Creek Trail in Westminster.
After a day of adventuring in the great outdoors, head to the Shops at Quail Creek within the neighborhood to refuel with a refreshing boba tea at Master Tea or handmade sushi at Snowfox or Go Fish. Opt for fresh groceries and stock up the pantry at King Soopers. The Orchard Town Center attracts folks for dining, shopping and entertainment at its multiple stores, including department stores like Marshall’s, chain restaurants and AMC Orchard 12 Movie Theater. Castillo says residents frequent Boulder and Lafayette for a more extensive selection of restaurants. “Plus, you have super easy access to the highway and interstate, which connects you to additional shopping and entertainment in the area,” she adds.
