Lafayette CO trailer park redevelopment
Another proposed mobile home park redevelopment in Boulder county is on the table.
This time it’s not in the city of Boulder, like the Boulder mobile home park called Orchard Grove, which didn’t get razed.
This redevelopment is in Lafayette. The Shady Acres Mobile Home Park has 31 mobile homes.
It is slated to be redone to include a 120-unit senior housing complex, proposed street-side retail, and commercial office space.
Lafayette Colorado’s Waneka Marketplace
I’ve taken many trips to Jax Outdoor Gear in Lafayette at the old Ace Hardware location for camping gear, and related stuff.
Just south of there across South Boulder Road, I’ve passed the same area to get to the scout store for the Pack 278 awards and advancement material.
Each trip I wondered how long it was going to take to stop seeing the Waneka Marketplace at Hwy 287 & South Boulder Road as a ‘ghost town’.
Well, the time has finally come…
Lafayette Home for Rent
So not too long ago, I had the opportunity again to help a home buyer find the perfect new home.
This time, we met a few times to discuss her life plans, and the opportunities that she felt would make her life move in the direction she wanted.
I met her more than once, and talked to her many times on the phone, and before we really got much chance to look at much in the way of homes for sale, an amazing thing happened.
We came upon a duplex, that was recently built, which basically suited her needs perfectly.
This place turned out to be perfect, and now she’s moved in and has one half ready to rent.
I’m sharing with you the copy she provided from one of her ads, so you can see if you, or someone you might know would find this beautiful home the right solution.
This is definitely a great home, very near (only three blocks) the local shops, restaurants.
It’s also close to other amenities along the rejuvenated and thriving Public Road (Lafayette’s “Main Street”).
Walk to coffee shops, Italian, Mexican, and Mediteranian restaurants, and don’t forget local annual events like the Peach Festival in the summer and the late winter Lafayette Oatmeal Festival with it’s 5k foot race.
All of this and more are just steps from your door if you find this home a good fit for you and your lifestyle in Lafayette.
I hope you’ll review the information below and get in touch with the new owner if you think this might fit your needs.
It’s a prime Lafayette location for those who want to be in the center of the action in this special community!
Boulder East County Mayor Forum Lafayette
The third mayor to address the group at the recent Mayor’s Forum was Lafayette’s Mayor, Chris Cameron. Cameron’s initial comment was that she no longer believes that Lafayette is a ‘second choice’ for people that can not afford Boulder, but wished they could.
I thought the comment was peculiar because I have often heard that Louisville held title to that concept. Read more
