Willow Park’s suburban community keeps an active lifestyle
Walking paths meander through Willow Park, connecting homes to the neighborhood’s namesake green space. The residential area is comprised of contemporary homes and city parks with abundant recreational amenities. Retail and restaurants are also just a short drive away, and central Broomfield is less than 3 miles west. “Willow Park really sits right in the middle of Broomfield, so you’re within walking distance to rec centers and schools,” says Claire Gilmore, a real estate broker and owner of Metro Brokers Kell & Co, who has about 30 years of experience and lives in Broomfield. “There’s also very easy access to Denver and Boulder. A lot of people will travel to work in those areas.”
Single-family homes from the 1990s and 2010s
Homes in Willow Park are lined along winding residential streets with narrow sidewalks. Properties have landscaped yards dotted with decorative trees and shrubbery. Contemporary single and multistory homes from the 1990s are the main housing types, with Craftsman features such as front gables, pointed roofs and stone or brick accents. Some properties have tucked-in garages, though they all fit two-to-three cars. A smaller section of the neighborhood along Zenobia Street has New Traditional multistory homes built in the 2010s. “They’re newer and almost cottage-like. They’re a nice, low-maintenance alternative, and you’re still not attached to your neighbor,” Gilmore says. Prices range from $550,000 to $800,000.
Staying active in Willow Park and other nearby green spaces
Located at the heart of the community, Willow Park's namesake green space has a lively playground area with swings and an open field often used for soccer. Willow Park’s paved walking trails spread through the entire neighborhood and connect to Broomfield’s larger multi-use trail system. These paths can be used to reach other nearby parks like Country Vista Park and the Brandywine parks. “The trails span miles for walking and biking, and they even lead to the Broomfield Community center,” Gilmore says.
Broomfield Commons Open Space sits directly north of the neighborhood, with over 346 acres of sprawling grassy fields that bloom with wildflowers. Within the open space is the Broomfield County Commons Park, which has multiple soccer fields and a dog park. About 2 miles west of Willow Park, Broomfield Community Park offers dozens of recreational amenities. There are four playgrounds, a skate park, tennis courts and an outdoor amphitheater. Patrons can enjoy the outdoor swimming pools in the warmer months and head to the Broomfield Community Center for indoor facilities. “Broomfield is pretty sport- and family-oriented. People come from all over the area to be a part of the sports programs,” Gilmore says.

Sidewalks and trails foster a pedestrian and cyclist-friendly community in Willow Park. Traveling outside the neighborhood requires a vehicle. Midway Boulevard is the area’s main thoroughfare, and access to U.S. Route 287, known as W 120th Avenue, is less than 2 miles south. Both roads can be used to reach central Broomfield. The Denver International Airport is roughly 21 miles away.
