Accessible and convenient living in Kings Mill

Known for its prime location near 88th Avenue and Standley Lake, Kings Mill is a suburban Westminster neighborhood with convenience and an abundance of activities. Nicki Thompson with RE/MAX Alliance, with over 20 years of experience in the Denver Metro area adds that “Kings Mill’s fantastic location is minutes from Wadsworth and Highway 36, department stores, grocery stores and churches,” as well. Although housing inventory is low across the board in Colorado due to disproportionate construction, the relatively accessible home prices in Kings Mill make it a coveted option. With outdoor recreation opportunities and highly rated schools nearby, “Kings Mill is certainly a place to consider if you’re seeking affordability in Jefferson County,” says Realtor and Westminster resident Karen Levine with RE/MAX Alliance. Additionally, 88th Avenue features shopping centers with department stores, fitness clubs and restaurants. With downtown Denver about 14 miles away and amenities aplenty in close reach, Kings Mill offers a low-key lifestyle with activities available for residents who desire more action.

Rich recreation and lake life in Kings Mill

One of the biggest draws to Kings Mill is its outdoor recreation and its proximity to Standley Lake, which spans about 3,000 acres and includes an impressive wildlife refuge. Locals can watch the magpies here and hit the trails for a bike ride or stargaze in one of the park’s campsites. From the lake, Oakhurst Park is easily accessible, which is a linear greenway popular for daily dog walks. The park also has a colorful playground and an expansive picnic shelter that can accommodate large groups, making it a popular spot for birthday parties and summer barbecues. More facilities are available at Kings Mill Park, such as tennis courts and a skatepark. Skirted by the Big Dry Creek Trail, one of Westminster’s main trail systems, Westbrook Park includes courts for street hockey and tennis, along with a sprawling playscape with a central seating area.

Kings Mill’s big-box shopping and local dining options

With access to Westbrook Shopping Center to the north and other mini malls off 88th Avenue to the east, Kings Mill residents have plenty of options to pick up groceries and other necessities. King Soopers, Safeway, Target and Walmart are all within 3 miles, along with other big-box stores, like The Home Depot. Kings Mill also has numerous popular dining-out options. Those craving a spicy meal can head to Corona’s Mexican Grill, where the signature salsa has a reputation for starting a fire that only an order of fried ice cream can extinguish. Thompson also mentions Old Chicago and Marcos for pizza and CD’s Wings, which claims the best wings in Colorado since 2007.

For groceries, King Soopers is just north of Kings Mill at the Standley Shores Shopping Center.

Public education options in Kings Mill

Children in Kings Mill can attend schools in Jefferson County Public Schools (Jeffco), beginning at Lukas Elementary and Wayne Carle Middle, which both score B grades on Niche. Standley Lake High, which also earns a B, is the only Jeffco school to offer an IB Diploma program in Westminster, and students zoned for different high schools often come here to take advantage of the district’s choice enrollment program. As an additional option, parents can choose to send their kindergarten through Grade 8 students to B-plus-rated Woodrow Wilson Academy, a charter school with a special program for home-schooled students.

Wayne Carle Middle School is an above average school in Broomfield with a B on Niche.com.

Kings Mill duplexes, contemporary ranch styles and condos

Built primarily in the 1970s, houses here range from ranch-style homes and contemporary wood sided builds with stone sidings to condos clad in terra cotta. Levine notes that the average home value of just over $500,000 is significantly lower than the city average of almost $570,000. Condos often start around $300,000, while single-family homes can climb up to about $950,000. Side-by-side duplexes offer mirrored floor plans and yard space, and many homes include electric baseboard heat, something Levine notes as an attractive feature for homebuyers. “Electric baseboard heat was a challenge in the past because electricity was expensive at the time, but it’s more attractive now as we’re electrifying everything,” Levine says. As more residents turn away from gas, homes already fitted for all-electric appliances become more sought after.

Transportation and health care in Kings Mill

Residents can hop on Highway 36 and Interstate 25 to head toward downtown Denver, and Thompson mentions that a perk of Kings Mill’s location is proximity to RTD-Denver bus stops along 88th Avenue. While some residential streets have sidewalks, the walkability is relatively low, as most residents get around by car. Parking is not an issue, as most properties have built-in garages or driveways. For air travel, the Denver International Airport is about 26 miles away. Health and urgent-care clinics are available within a couple miles, with the closest major hospital about 8 miles away at North Suburban Medical Center.
