The scoop
Downtown Niwot is the original town site and includes a number of historic buildings built in the early 1900’s. The town was built as an agricultural and railway depot and the small homes are characteristic of similar small Western towns.
The downtown area is a mix of commercial and residential and includes the newer Cottonwood Square Commercial area. It’s where you’ll find most of Niwot’s retail, restaurants and office.
The Lifestyle
Take a drive through Downtown and you’ll see local residents walking their dogs and strolling over to Second Avenue for a cup of coffee. You’ll also see visitors looking for antiques and browsing through the small boutique stores. It’s a relaxed and friendly vibe with a real sense of community.
The Neighbors
Each year more of the “old-timers” move on and are replaced by newer residents attracted to the relative affordability of the smaller old homes. This is one neighborhood where everyone knows everyone and there are a number of neighborhood get-togethers.
The Market
Downtown Niwot homes have increased dramatically in value since 2015 with homes now starting around $500K. Downtown is still one of the more affordable areas in terms of price but the small buildings and development limitations make the homes expensive per SQFT.
Local Notes
The entire Downtown area has been zoned NRCD (Niwot Rural Community District). 2nd Avenue is zoned NRCD Commercial and the rest of Downtown is zoned NRCD Residential. The zoning designation impacts future land use and development of the area. In addition, much of 2nd Avenue falls within the Niwot Historic District.
