The Platte River Ranch single family home (SFH) neighborhood is a covenant-controlled community located in Brighton, Colorado. The neighborhood is comprised of 479 single family homes situated on both sides of West Bromley Lane between the cross streets of Mockingbird Street and East 148th Avenue. The homes were built by between May 1999 and November 2001.
The neighborhood was built in three phases (as marked by the monument signs along Bromley Lane) -- Shoreline, Eagleview and Lakefront -- with each phase providing new floor plans and interior and exterior home construction design.
Approximately half of the neighborhood's boundaries border a lake, open spaces and City parks (i.e. Ken Mitchell Park, boardwalk and fishing pier) and the other half of the neighborhood borders unincorporated Adams County land (primarily residential lots and a farm field). In addition, the neighborhood is situated less than a quarter mile from the 85 highway (with downtown Denver and the airport about a 30-minute drive away). One unique fact about Platte River Ranch is that the open spaces allow the residents to live up close with a variety of Colorado wildlife including pelicans, swans, snapping turtles, raccoons, geckos and a few bald eagles (our national bird)!
The Metro District
The Platte River Ranch South Metropolitan District (the District) is a quasi-municipal corporation and political subdivision of the State of Colorado. The District's boundaries wholly encompass the 479 single family homes in the Platte River Ranch subdivisions (filings #2, #3 and #5) and the District's board of directors are elected solely by Colorado registered voters living and/or owning property within the Platte River Ranch neighborhood. Beginning in 2017, the District began performing all functions previously provided by the Association including (1) maintaining the open spaces and recreational facilities within the neighborhood, (2) monitoring and enforcing the Platte River Ranch restrictive covenants and maintenance standards applicable to every lot and (3) providing architectural review services in accordance with the neighborhood's restrictive covenants and architectural guidelines.
