Old Broadmoor in Colorado Springs, CO

About Broadmoor

Homes for sale in Broadmoor are located in one of the oldest-established luxury enclaves in Colorado Springs. The area developed around The Broadmoor Hotel after Spencer Penrose opened the resort in 1918. Early development centered on the streets immediately surrounding the hotel. Builders added custom estates through the 1920s and continued to do so through the second half of the 20th century.

Architecture across Broadmoor is heavy on Spanish Colonial Revival, Tudor, Mediterranean, and traditional brick designs. Many original mansions retain stone walls, wrought iron gates, and copper roof accents. Newer additions include custom contemporary builds with mountain-view glass walls and modern landscaping. Lot sizes range from quarter-acre estates near the hotel to multi-acre parcels backing to Cheyenne Mountain.

Street layout follows the natural terrain rather than a strict grid. Streets curve up the slopes toward the mountain, with cul-de-sacs and short loops forming each section. Many homes back to open space, the country club golf course, or wooded foothills. Mature pine and oak trees line most streets, with established gardens around each home.

Broadmoor operates under a mix of HOA structures. Some sections fall under the Broadmoor Resort Community Association, while others use smaller sub-area associations. Cheyenne Mountain Country Club membership is separate from any HOA. Membership at the country club is an additional cost layer for buyers wanting access to the golf, tennis, and social facilities.

Compared with Kissing Camels across the city, Broadmoor offers more historic character with a tighter connection to The Broadmoor Hotel itself. Compared with Cedar Heights and Skyway, Broadmoor has older architecture and a more walkable layout near the resort. Buyers wanting an estate-style address with deep history often start their search in Broadmoor.

Why Buyers Choose Broadmoor

Some buyers don't realize that Broadmoor's historic streets connect directly to several Colorado Springs landmarks. The Broadmoor Hotel anchors the eastern edge of the neighborhood with its World Arena, Penrose Heritage Museum, and the golf courses. Seven Falls operates as a hotel amenity but also welcomes outside visitors.

Cheyenne Mountain Zoo and the Will Rogers Shrine of the Sun are perched on the mountainside south of the community. Homeowners are minutes from the resort spa, dining venues, and event spaces by car. Compare Broadmoor against other homes for sale in Colorado Springs to see how it stacks up.

Buyers should review the recorded covenants and any country club dues before submitting an offer.

Are there new construction homes for sale in Broadmoor?

New construction homes for sale in Broadmoor are limited because most of the area is fully built out. Custom teardowns and rebuilds happen occasionally when a buyer purchases an older estate to redevelop. Some newer custom homes occupy formerly empty parcels in the foothills sections. Builders capable of working in Broadmoor are typically high-end custom firms with experience handling estate-grade projects. Ask your agent about active teardown opportunities.
