Kipling Hills offers a calm atmosphere near parks and retail
South of Lakewood, Kipling Hills is a highly residential neighborhood with mature trees that give it a well-established feel. Housing options include single-family homes in subdivisions as well as townhouse and condo communities. Some homes are part of a homeowners association, and all of them share access to a large green space in the neighborhood’s central region. Local thoroughfares provide access to retail, public transit and restaurants.
Types of homes available in Kipling Hills and their pricing
Many single-family homes are in cul-de-sacs within subdivisions such as Kipling Villas and Woodmar. Architecture varies from brick ranch-style homes to split-levels and contemporary multistory homes with a mixed exterior composition of brick and panels. Single-family home prices range from the lower $400,000s to the lower $700,000s. “The homes here are a little older, and some might need updating, but you can get a really good deal,” says Realtor Melinda Sanders with eXp Realty, who has over seven years of experience. “There is a good variety of residents who have been here since the [19]70s, all the way up to first-time homebuyers who are finding it affordable to move here now.” Many New Traditional townhouses are also in the area, with prices ranging from the lower $300,000s to the lower $500,000s.

Homeowners associations are present, and some are voluntary
If a homeowners association oversees the subdivisions, then residents may need to pay additional fees. “Every townhome community or condo area will have an HOA… If it’s a single-family home, there are usually covenants, at least, and then small HOAs if there is an HOA. Quite often, there isn’t an HOA in the single-family home communities,” says Realtor Mary McCullough with Home Smart, who has over 19 years of experience. The Kipling Villas Homeowners Association is voluntary, so the $40 annual fee to fund improvements and events is optional. Some townhouses are in the Kipling Sun Townhomes community, which has a monthly HOA fee of approximately $450. Monthly assessments cover costs for snow removal, recycling and ground maintenance. The Lexington Village Homeowners Association has similar responsibilities, and its monthly payment is about $330.

Ace Hardware, Natural Grocers and restaurants, such as Thai Bistro, are on Kipling Parkway. “Just north of Kipling Hills, across Bowles Avenue, is a huge retail area, and so you would be able to walk to several shopping centers,” Sanders says.

It is adjacent to the Bowles Crossing strip mall, which is home to Trader Joe’s and an AMC movie theater.
