Main roads and single-family homes are interspersed with parks and green spaces in Walnut Grove, a suburban neighborhood roughly 6 miles northwest of central Westminster. The primarily residential area is within walking distance to the surrounding outdoors and nearby public schools. “A lot of people enjoy that it’s an established community. The school district is rated well, and the affordability factor is there,” says Real Estate Agent and Managing Broker Allison Cassieri with North Metro Realty, who has over 10 years of experience. “The location is nice, too. It’s close to Boulder and a quick commute to Downtown Denver.”

Multi-story homes with New Traditional or Craftsman architecture are also found in the neighborhood, built in the 1980s and 1990s. Some have simple exteriors, while others have bright colors and front gables. Prices range from $550,000 to $850,000. Newly built multi-story townhouses are found along the main roads of Walnut Grove. These properties are attached with tucked-in garages and share modern designs.
