Premium access and convenience near downtown

Highly rated schools, access to amenities and a little luxury are among some of the main highlights of the Ivywild neighborhood. “They get to live near the mountains and have the cute stuff a block away,” Ashley Reed, a realtor with 0635 Real Estate Group LLC. The neighborhood is adjacent to Broadmoor, a high-end community at the base of the mountains, and across Fountain Creek from downtown Colorado Springs. The community offers a little of everything, from live music and activities to bike paths to the Broadmoor and Cheyenne Mountain Zoo.

Unique and different homes

Homes in the neighborhood come in various shapes and sizes. Houses range from around $375,000 for a ranch-style home to over $800,000 for an old Victorian home with a shed and a fenced backyard. “Everything is very unique and different, often on the smaller side,” Reed says. “People are looking for lots that can have a second dwelling on it, like a little cottage or garage with a room to rent out.” Homes sell, on average, after 116 days on the market, compared to the national average of 43. Townhouses are uncommon to the area but can range from $650,000 to $730,000 for one with three-bedrooms and three-bathrooms.
