Access to all that Arvada has to offer without sacrificing green space

Allendale residents get a front-row seat at some of Arvada’s most popular festivals. “The community’s done a very good job of creating universal access to suburban amenities,” Jesse Lynch, owner of the Welcome To Denver real estate team and host of a popular YouTube channel of the same name says. Home to the expansive Stenger Sports Complex and flanked by two shopping centers, Allendale offers homebuyers convenience, an energetic community and plenty of green space for staying active.

From 1960s ranch-style homes to Craftsman builds with vertical panel siding

Much of the housing options in Allendale are 1960s ranch-style homes with two-car garages that often take up a large portion of the home’s frontage. Many of these ranch-style homes sell for between $400,000 and $600,000. There are also quite a few split-level and bi-level homes here, which go for between $500,000 and $700,000, as well as new Craftsman builds that offer a sleek look with vertical panel siding that start at $700,000. Allendale also has modern three-story town house options, like those in the SaBell development, which offer residents community living with much less yard maintenance than a traditional home. Here, neighbors can form tight bonds by meeting for walks or play dates at the complex’s private park and playground. These town houses go for between $450,000 and $650,000. As far as median price, Allendale is on the lower end of the Arvada market at $580,000.

From long walks at Allendale Park to play dates at Bridgeside Park

“No matter where you are, you’re going to have access to commercial areas and well-maintained parks,” Lynch says. Allendale Park is the best place for a private walk among the cherry blossoms in the spring. The park’s green space is crisscrossed by walking paths that lead to classic and colorful playgrounds. Wedged between residential streets, kids can easily walk to the park from their homes, and parents don’t have to worry about their children playing near high-traffic roads. To the north, Bridgeside Park provides the perfect place for an after-school play date, as it’s located right next to Vanderhoof Elementary. At Stenger Sports Complex, locals will see young athletes on their way to a local league game on one of the many soccer and baseball fields. Traversed by the concrete paved Van Bibber Creek Trail, this is also a popular area for a brisk walk or an afternoon jog.

Variety of dining options with the convenience of nearby King Soopers

For residents who want to live close to a grocery store, Allendale might be for them. No matter which corner of this neighborhood, locals are just a few minutes away — and sometimes within walking distance — of a shopping center anchored by King Soopers. While the plaza on the southeast end of the community offers a plethora of fast-casual dining options, the one on the northwest side brings a taste of Nashville heat to the Centennial State with family-owned Blazing Bird. Visitors tickle their tastebuds with the signature Loaded Bird spicy chicken sandwich, then put out the fire with a creamy Oreo milkshake. In the mornings, locals can grab a warm, fresh-glazed donut from Donut Time, then spend lunchtime savoring authentic Chinese dishes like Kung Pao chicken at the nearby Tea Garden.
