Whether you are looking for a smaller “starter” home or a larger “forever” home, Anthem Highlands has a great option for you.

First time homebuyers or buyers looking for something a smaller may find the paired homes located in the northeast corner of the neighborhood interesting. These homes range from approximately 1,400 square feet to nearly 2,500 square feet and priced starting at approximately $425,000.

If you prefer a detached single family home over the paired home option, but still want something a little smaller there is an options for you as well. These homes are primarily located on the northern boundary of the neighborhood. With both 2-story and ranch plans available these homes are perfect for many people including first time homebuyers and others who may be looking to downsize. Prices start at approximately $575,000.

Parkside Community Center

The Parkside Community Center located at 3624 Parkside Center Drive is a 32,000 square foot resort-style community center. The expansive facility is a daily destination for every family member, offering more than most high-end health clubs including yoga, spinning, tennis, volleyball, basketball, swimming and every kind of endurance training you can imagine.

Anthem Highlands Parkside Community Center

The fitness facility, located on the second floor, is home to multiple types of cardiovascular equipment including treadmills, ellipticals, stair climbers, spin bikes and more. You will also find weight training machines and free weights throughout the fitness floor.

On the main floor you will find basketball courts, lounge, child care, multi-purpose rooms as well as the administrative offices for the community.

During summer, the Parkside Community Center becomes the hub of the neighborhood due in large part to the swimming pools available to Anthem Highlands residents and their guests. There are two pools at the Parkside Center. The first is a full-size lap pool that is home to the Anthem Alligators swim team. A little further down the path is the childrens “zero-entry” pool that includes two waterslides as well as other water features perfect for kids.

Anthem Highlands Schools

One of the most important considerations for many parents buying Broomfield real estate are the schools their children will attend. Anthem Highlands is located in the Adams 12 Five Star Schools District. Just last year, the neighborhood welcomed a brand new P-8 school located in the heart of the community. Thunder Vista is now the designated elementary and middle school for children living in Anthem Highlands.

High school aged students generally attend Legacy High School but the community offers several other options for parents.

Prospect Ridge Academy offers parents a local charter school also located in the neighborhood. PRA as it is often called provides a choice for parents with children from kindergarten through high school.

Other local school options include Holy Family High SchoolPeak to PeakStargate School and The Dawson School.

For more information on local schools I recommend visiting Great Schools.

Shopping and Dining

Perhaps the second most important consideration outside of the home when purchasing Broomfield real estate is the nearby availability of shopping and dining. While there is great availability for shopping with the King Soopers Marketplace located across Hwy 7 from the neighborhood, there are only a small handful of dining options within walking or biking distance of Anthem Highlands. By visiting Walk Score, you will find Anthem Highlands is very car-dependent with a walk score of zero and bike score of 6. This should change in the near future with some new Broomfield real estate developments I wrote about in a recent blog.

Until then Anthem Highlands residents are limited to restaurant options in the Orchard Shopping Center and Larkridge Shopping Center. Even more options are available if residents venture west to Lafayette or Boulder.

Anthem Highlands Pros and Cons

With every neighborhood there are always pros and cons. By far the largest pro of the neighborhood is the Parkside Community Center. There is no other community center like it in the area. Many families take advantage of this by cancelling gym memberships which equates to real savings. A second significant pro to the community is the homes themselves. Many homes have views of the mountains including the flatirons and Mt. Evans. Additionally, the majority of homes are new enough so they feature many styles that fit todays design trends.

The biggest con to living in Anthem Highlands is the availability of restaurants and shops within walking distance. This seems to be changing and ideally there will be more dining options a short walk away within the next few years.

Final Thoughts

Anthem Highlands continues to be one of the most in-demand neighborhood in the Broomfield real estate market. There are homes available for nearly every price range and need. If you are looking for a home in Broomfield now or in the near future I would highly recommend considering Anthem Highlands.
