The Broadlands

The Broadlands is one of Broomfield's larger master-planned communities, designed around a clear organizing idea: a golf course and a generous network of lakes, parks, and trails woven through the neighborhood. The Broadlands Golf Course — a public course — is the centerpiece, with many homes oriented toward the course and the open space around it.

Water and trails define the rest of the community. A series of lakes and ponds, connected by walking and biking paths, give The Broadlands a green and recreation-friendly feel, and the trail system ties into Broomfield's broader open-space network.

The housing stock is predominantly single-family, built largely in the late 1990s and 2000s, spanning a range of sizes from mid-size two-story homes to larger plans, several with golf-course or open-space frontage. The Broadlands operates under an HOA covering the community, and many — though not all — sections sit within a metro district that adds to the property tax picture. The specifics vary by location within the neighborhood and are worth confirming when shopping a particular home.

The Broadlands shares Broomfield's central-location advantage: positioned between Denver and Boulder with strong highway access, within reach of the employment growth along the US-36 corridor. The community has the established, mature quality of a master-planned neighborhood that's matured into itself — landscaping grown in, amenities well-used.

For someone considering The Broadlands, the value of local guidance is in the specifics: how golf-course or lake frontage affects price, how the HOA and any district taxes shape the real cost of ownership, how commute routes perform, and how the community compares to Anthem, McKay Landing, and Broomfield's other planned neighborhoods. An agent who works the area can lay those tradeoffs out clearly.
