A small, tight-knit midtown community

Bordered by a spacious park and its namesake golf course, Collindale is a midtown Fort Collins community where residents are never far from outdoor recreation and expansive shopping centers. “Collindale is very close to big box stores and the active shopping districts along College Avenue and Harmony Road, but it doesn’t feel loud or bustling within the residential streets,” says Sharianne Daily, a local Realtor with RE/MAX Alliance who has been working in the area for decades. “There is a sense of quiet here. It’s also a small enough community that people know their neighbors. When you go to the community pool, you can pretty much name all the faces you see.” In fact, Collindale experiences less crime than the average community, with a CAP Index crime score of 1 out of 10, when compared to the national average of 4.

1980s architecture and multi-family offerings

Developed throughout the 1980s and early 1990s, Collindale’s housing scene consists of brick ranch-style homes, shuttered Colonial Revivals and modern craftsmans. Houses sit on 5,000 to 7,000-square-foot lots and have paved driveways and two-car attached garages. Single-family homes range from $500,000 to $750,000. Condos and townhouses have one to three bedrooms and go for $280,000 to $450,000.

A neighborhood pool and the public Collindale Golf Course

Warren Park is across Lemay Avenue and has a playground, picnic areas and playing surfaces for baseball, soccer, basketball and tennis. The Power Trail runs along the neighborhood’s east side and connects to numerous trails around the city, including the Spring Creek Trail and Poudre Trail.
