Challenger Park Estates
Neighborhood in Parker, Colorado
Douglas County 80134
New traditional houses near natural green space
An arched stone plaque with the neighborhood name sits at the Pine Lane entrance, one of four in the subdivision. Cement sidewalks dotted with shade from nearby trees wind past rows of new traditional houses priced from $575,000 to $1 million. Homes may be one or two stories, with attached garages and room for back decks and patio furniture sets. Streetlamps also dot the sidewalks, which lead to neighborhood playgrounds and green spaces, which are maintained with monthly homeowners association payments of $95.Flying discs and Challenger Regional Park’s fields
Pam Daale Memorial Park’s basketball courts, playground and open space, with disc golf, are in the south of the neighborhood. The Cherry Creek Trail is nearby and spans 42 miles along its namesake waterway. The trail is accessible from multiple parks, including from the Westcreek Disc Golf Course, north of the neighborhood, and the 64-acre Challenger Regional Park, in the south. Challenger Regional Park has playgrounds, a basketball court and turf fields for soccer, lacrosse, football and baseball. Parker Recreation Center, which has an indoor pool and a weight room, is also in the park and offers fitness classes and child care.Studies within a top-rated district and private school
Douglas County School District serves Challenger Park Estates, earning an A-minus grade from Niche, which also ranks it as the third-best in Denver. Mammoth Heights Elementary School earns a B-plus grade from Niche. Sierra Middle School and Chaparral High School both earn A-minus grades. High schoolers can try out for various sports, including flag football and field hockey. “Douglas County School District has the International Baccalaureate (IB) program and a ton of intermural sports to the point where you better slow down your kid on how many sports they do, or else you won't have a life as parents,” says Robert Tait, a broker with Engel & Völkers with over 15 years of experience. Nearby, A-plus-graded Southeast Christian School shares a building with Southeast Christian Church, where kindergarten through eighth-grade students receive a private education with Biblical integration.Parker Days, a popular festival since the 1970s
Mainstreet is blocked off four days in June for Parker Days, a popular festival and carnival held annually since the 1970s. The free event features over 200 merchants, 30 food vendors and live music on four different stages. Activities include over 40 carnival rides, fair games, inflatables and craft stations.Drives around the community and Downtown Parker
The local thoroughfare Jordan Road runs north along the neighborhood’s west side to Extension 470, a toll road. Known locally as “E-470” it leads to the Denver International Airport, about 25 miles north. Local broker Phillip Booghier with LIV Sotheby’s International Realty says that E-470 is not as popular as other routes around Denver since it operates primarily as a path to the airport, but traffic is typically minimal. E-470 also connects the neighborhood to state Highway 83, or “Parker Road,” which leads to the nearest hospital AdventHealth Parker. Additionally, another local thoroughfare is Lincoln Avenue. “Lincoln is the busiest road during commuting times because everyone drives Lincoln up to I-25 to get to work,” Tait says. Additionally, the Regional Transportation District (RTD) provides bus services along Lincoln Avenue, Jordan Road and Mainstreet.Stonegate shopping centers and access to Downtown Parker
Since the community has no designated shopping area, a short drive to nearby strip malls is necessary. The Crossing at Stonegate has a King Soopers and various fast food chains, including Wendy’s and Cold Stone Creamery. Locally owned businesses, such as consignment store Cotton Kloset, and restaurants, including Stonegate Cafe and Bourbon, Brews, Burgers, are in the Stonegate Village Center shopping plaza. Downtown Parker’s Mainstreet is about 4 miles east, dotted with additional boutiques, cafes and casual eateries.
