A Neighborhood Guide to Columbine Valley: From 1980s Classics to Brand-New Builds

One of the best things about Columbine Valley is that it is not just one neighborhood — it is a collection of them, each with its own personality. Whether you want an established home under mature trees or a brand-new build on a larger lot, there is something here for you. Here is my personal guide.

Burning Tree is one of those neighborhoods that really has it all. Most homes were built in the late 1970s and 1980s, and many have been beautifully updated. What makes it special is the lifestyle: a private community pool, tennis courts, a playground, and expansive park areas that bring neighbors together all year long.

The Village at Columbine is very similar to Burning Tree in the look and feel of its homes. It is an established neighborhood with large trees, and it is golf cart friendly and walkable to the Columbine Country Club.

Wild Plum is the newest neighborhood in Columbine Valley, with most homes built between 2021 and 2023. The property used to be Tuck Farm, and as you drive in you will see Cooley Lake — there is no public access, but the views are great. You will also find park areas, wonderful walking trails, and new homes on larger lots.

Brookhaven offers a mix of custom homes and elegant Tuscan-style patio homes surrounded by mature trees and lovely landscaping. It has a quiet, established feel just minutes from Historic Downtown Littleton. Wilder Lane is unlike anything else in the area — distinctive mid-century modern architecture, clean lines, expansive windows, and smaller lots for a more carefree lifestyle. And Willowcroft features beautiful ranch-style patio homes where the HOA handles landscaping and snow removal, so you can spend your time doing what you enjoy.

Every one of these neighborhoods is close to the Columbine Country Club and just minutes from the restaurants, shops, and trails around Downtown Littleton.
