A well-earned namesake

Dual parks on each end

Addenbrooke Park forms part of the neighborhood’s western boundary and features a pond and indoor fitness center. To the east, you’ll find the city's 132-acre namesake park. Here the stately influence of the property's former Belmar Mansion remains visible in its sweeping grounds. Miles of trails, paved and unpaved, are ready to be walked, biked or ridden on horseback. In addition to majestic trees, grassland and the Kountze Lake, the area also includes a traditional turf space and play equipment.

Belmar Park’s old and new housing stock

The streets of Belmar Park are characterized by well-kept sidewalks and rocky landscaping. Some yards have just enough space for a bush or tree, while others sprawl towards wood fences visible from the street. Low-profile, postwar brick and wood ranches are joined by attached town houses in the Villa West community dating back to the 1970s and 1980s. Residents enjoy a clubhouse, a community pool and regular maintenance of common areas. Prices for these home styles range for $320,000 to $640,000. Larger area homes include split-levels with garages and a subdivision of upscale builds in the neighborhood’s east side. Constructed in the early 2000s, these houses take design queues from Craftsman bungalows, including partial-width columned porches and covered entryways. Prices start at $895,000 and reach $1.7 million.
