Goosehaven: A Picturesque Lafayette, CO Community!

The neighborhood of Goosehaven is a picturesque lake front gated community that sits on the edge of Lafayette near Erie Colorado.  The homes in this community are luxurious, spacious, and highly sought after.  Most have been built after the 1990’s and feature things like vaulted ceilings, manicured lawns, private boat docks, and gorgeous views of the Rocky Mountains and lake.  The city of Lafayette is perfectly situated in Boulder County with easy access from I-25 to Denver and Highway 52 to Boulder. This fantastic community is not only part of the best school district in Colorado but it also provides its residents with tons of outdoor activities, a romantic history, and a tranquil style of living.  Goose Haven is the perfect community for folk who want to enjoy all the beauty that farmlands and open spaces have to offer without being more than a 3 miles from your nearest grocery store and Starbucks. 

The history of Lafayette is one that could have come out of a Western movie and tells the story of a hard working widow who overcame adversity and established the town by plotting out 150 acres of her farmland. This land now makes up what is known as the historical downtown district of Lafayette.  This small downtown area houses the town hall, city municipal building, several restaurants, flea market, and a garden center. Lafayette was once just a simple farming and mining community, but now offers its residents with a great deal of different living options and styles.

The landscape that surrounds the Goose Haven community in Lafayette Colorado is something that most people only see in pictures.  As you drive down Route 287 leaving the center of town you enter a land that looks to be out of a fairy tale.  The open space and farmland in the area is green and lush during the spring and summer and blanketed with snow in the winter.  All around you there are spectacular views of the Rocky Mountains which is also the backdrop for the Goose Haven community as well.  In addition this community backs right up to Waneka Lake making Goose Haven a triple threat in terms of scenery.  Having lake front property in Colorado is not unheard of but it is scarce.  For more information about homes for sale the Goose Haven Community, check out feature listing located at 10649 E Goosehaven Dr.
