Brennan by the Lake sits over in Erie, Colorado, near the mountains, which gives some nice views and puts you close to public transit if you need to get around, and the homes here are mostly low-maintenance townhomes with features like cement siding, decks, patios, and attached garages, which makes things pretty easy to take care of, and though there's an HOA fee of $308, that covers things like snow removal, insurance, heat, trash, recycling, and yard work, so nobody has to worry much about the outside chores or upkeep. The homes come with private bathrooms, kitchenettes, cable TV, Wi-Fi, telephone service, air conditioning, furnished rooms, double-pane windows, master suites with walk-in closets, open floor plans, tile and carpet floors, and some have great rooms with vaulted ceilings, plus most include a kitchen with an island, a pantry, a refrigerator, and a dining area that's bright thanks to big windows, and if you want to grill or sit outside, there are covered front patios ready for that sort of thing.
Throughout the community, there are services like housekeeping, laundry or dry cleaning, move-in help, a concierge desk, and support for families, and they also help folks get to appointments or go shopping with transportation available, plus there's parking close by for residents. For food, there's restaurant-style dining, and you can get allergy-friendly or special meals since it's all handled by professional chefs, and they don't make you stick to just set meal times, 'cause there's all-day dining if you're hungry at odd hours.
If you're looking for things to do, Brennan by the Lake has outdoor and scheduled activities every day, with both resident-led and community-sponsored events, and folks can also use the community room, business room, spa or wellness areas, game room, arts room, fitness center, library, movie theater, and outdoor paths for walking. Some places in the community have a playground or park, plus hiking and biking trails nearby. They've got assisted living and memory care, and there's nursing home and independent living options too, plus it works as a continuing care retirement community, so some people can stay as their needs change. The staff there provide help for folks who need memory support as well as other senior care services, and the homes themselves are smoke-free, low-maintenance, and aimed at adults older than 55.
Many of the properties overlap with subdivisions like Brennan Circle and Brennan Place, and you'll see attached single-family townhomes with sizes from about 1,003 to 3,375 square feet, normally with two or three bedrooms and at least two full bathrooms, sometimes a half bath, open kitchens, and unfinished basements. Listings and sales have gone through agencies like Compass - Boulder, RE/MAX Elevate, RE/MAX Professionals, and RE/MAX Of Boulder, Inc., and there are map and soil reports, available lot details, and quick move-in homes if you ask. Sale prices can go from around $599,900 up, with median list prices near $663,000, and some homes reach about $361 per square foot, and you get utilities like public water and sewer, plus wired internet in each place. The whole thing is set inside the St. Vrain Valley school district and is zoned residential, so if you want a place that's got parking, mountain views, attached garages, and services designed for older adults, Brennan by the Lake covers a good bit of ground without a lot of fuss.
