Suburb connected by sidewalks and through celebrations

Colonial-inspired architecture may evoke a historic appeal, but pristine lawns dotted with young saplings illustrate Belle Creek’s actual age. As years pass, these trees will grow alongside the community to provide shade during morning walks to the spacious community garden in the middle of the neighborhood. “Belle Creek is a residential area suitable for families, providing a tranquil retreat from the urban hustle,” says Dawn Green, a Realtor with eXp Realty who has over nine years of experience selling in the Denver suburbs. The neighborhood is decorated with parks, from the open space at Town Square Park to the Belle Creek Trail. Belle Creek Family Center creates a calendar filled with events to ensure there is every opportunity to meet and mingle with neighbors. As with many Colorado communities, it is advised to be aware that, with added recreation comes possible elevated instances of fires. Belle Creek scores a 6 out of 10 on Rick Factor’s 10-point fire risk scale.

Sidewalk-lined subdivisions surround Belle Creek Boulevard

Contemporary traditional houses with attached garages line residential streets. These early 21st century homes list between $420,000 for and $560,000. “Belle Creek was built to mimic old downtown Denver, where walkability and large front porches were important features,” says Shannon Wester, president of Belle Creek Metropolitan District No. 1. “With a downtown, old house feel but newer homes, Belle Creek is the kind of neighborhood you move up to, and it’s designed for people to stay.” Paved sidewalks stretch down the streets and onto Belle Creek Boulevard, where apartments and townhouses echo the same muted shades of red, green and blue as the single-family homes. These townhouses list between $365,000 and $380,000.

Drives down Belle Creek Boulevard

Belle Creek Boulevard serves as the main thoroughfare in town, connecting with 104th Avenue in the south for travel east into Reunion. Taking U.S. Route 85 to reach Brighton, to the north, and following the route south to Interstate 76 allows for commutes into Denver. When heading to far-away destinations, travelers check-in for domestic and international flights at the Denver International Airport, located roughly 14 miles east.

Trekking trails and visiting pocket parks

Pocket parks are spread across Belle Creek, accessible by the neighborhood’s sidewalks. Walkers stroll over to Town Square Park, bringing their dogs along and resting on park benches. Soccer players gather behind the Belle Creek Family Center for practice while joggers start their runs on the Belle Creek Trail’s paved path to Akron Street. Additional outdoor recreation can be found just a 10-mile drive south to Rocky Mountain Arsenal National Wildlife Refuge’s 16,000 acres, where hikers set out on over 20 miles of trails, catching glimpses of prairie dog burrows.

Haraf Foods Market and crates of produce

For items to complete recipes, just down the block is Haraf Foods Market. If needing more than a handful of products, grocery shoppers drive to Reunion for produce and ingredients. Coffee shops keep patrons caffeinated along Belle Creek Boulevard’s southern stretch, namely Dutch Bros and Ziggi’s. Wooden crates and baskets contrast the colorful fruits and vegetables at Palombo Farms Market, which is open only from July to October. This family owned business maintains a selection of products sourced directly from local farms, including jarred jams and honey.

Keeping busy at Belle Creek Family Center

The Belle Creek Family Center suits all sorts of busy schedules throughout the year by allowing for the booking of yoga classes and open gym times. Additionally, the center draws crowds for its annual events, such as Kid’s Day Out, a camp-like afternoon where parents drop off their children for lunch and activities, including Nerf wars. Events, from barbeques to parades, are scheduled regularly to help build community connections. Every October, residents create spooky masterpieces on their front lawns, and each December, they create the possibility of designing winter wonderlands, all in attempting to earn the title of best-decorated home as a part of annual Halloween and Christmas house decorating contests.

The Belle Creek Family Center is a big draw in the community.
