Watkins Farm
By Jessica Carcoana · Updated September 2026
A 65-home community of upscale ranch and two-story homes at the intersection of Imboden Road and East 7th Avenue. Built between 2002 and 2013, homes range from 2,500 to 3,600 finished square feet including basements, with 2-to-4-car garages on flat two-acre-plus lots. Many properties have fenced yards suitable for horses and livestock. The newer construction, generous lot sizes, and no-HOA structure make this Watkins' most cohesive modern subdivision.
