Northeast Thornton Real Estate

I wanted to briefly highlight an area of northeastern Thornton which I think is a hidden gem. This area is primarily north of 128th Ave around the north/south running streets of Holly and Quebec as indicated by the map above.  I think it's a great area for several reasons:
1.  The newly opened Quebec exit on the E-470 tollway provides residents of this growing area quicker commuting times to large employment centers around the metro area.  Here are a few examples of commute times:
  • Broomfield Interlocken Tech Area - 20 minutes
  • Boulder - 33 minutes
  • Downtown Denver - 30 minutes

2.  There's no shortage of great parks and open space nearby.  In fact, within a short distance are 4 major parks, a golf course, an aquatic center, and a full disc (frisbee) golf course.  Great for families, great for athletes, great for outdoor types.  It's also a great location for cyclists, with plenty of open roads to ride (including a few hills) and easy access to the S Platte River trail which can take you all the way into Denver (or to Chatfield Reservoir if you're feeling adventurous).    


3.   Real Estate is super affordable.  Yes, home values continue to appreciate at a steady rate, but the average price of homes sold over the last 12 months has been a little under the average for the entire Denver metro area.  Check out the sold data below:

    As we can see, the average sold price was $328,330 with the average home selling at 93% of asking price (this includes resale and included new builds in the MLS).  However, the median price sold was only $309,900 which provides a little better insight into prices in the area.   
New build homes do continue to go up in the area as well which does naturally raise the cost of buying into an area.  I was recently reviewing a few new homes nearby and here are a few example of new build pricing:


1.   3600 SF, 5 bed, 4.5 bath, 3 car garage: $574,000.    
2. 1782 SF, 2 bed, 2.5 bath, 3 car garage: $430,000.
3.  3154 SF, 4 bed, 3.5 bath, 3 car garage: $483,674.  


   What this tells me is that many home options exist if considering living in this area - the range of pricing in the area can really appeal to many types of families and buyers.  If you're ever interested in seeing the types/styles of homes available in northeast Thornton, CO, feel free to give me a call or send me an email.  Always happy to discuss real estate with anybody and provide meaningful data and advice for specific areas!
