Located just 10 miles east of Boulder and a short 18 miles north of Denver, Lafayette is ideally situated for those looking for rich, small-town life that’s still conveniently situated near hubs of culture, education and outdoor activities. Young families have flocked to the town in recent years to enjoy its award-winning recreation center, multiple parks and playgrounds, and kid-friendly restaurants and breweries. The housing market includes multiple new-home communities like the spacious Indian Peaks subdivisions, as well as a few pockets of value properties in the Churchill Point and Anna’s Farm neighborhoods.
