Creighton
By Jessica Carcoana · Updated September 2026
Postwar ranch houses from the 1940s through the mid-1960s sit on lots of an eighth to a quarter acre, many reworked inside while keeping the low rooflines and wide front windows of the original plans. Addenbrooke Park at 600 S. Kipling Parkway carries a lake with mountain views, four ball fields, six soccer fields, tennis and pickleball courts, a horse arena and a free outdoor Fitness Court. Belmar Park, 132 rolling acres with nearly two miles of paved trail and more than 17 acres of water, lies about a mile and a half east at 801 S. Wadsworth Boulevard, along with the Heritage Lakewood history museum. Colorado Christian University occupies a campus on S. Garrison Street, and W. Alameda Avenue reaches the shops at Belmar in about five minutes.
