This weekend I showed homes in the Woodmen Hills area, and thought I would say a few words about it. This unique subdivision was built with mostly 1 acre and 1/2 acre lots, and most of the homes are less than 10 years old. It has 2 recreation centers ( of which now managed by the YMCA) , and while horses are not allowed, it is somewhat friendly for parking extra vehicles such as trailers and boats. The subdivision is located near Meridian and Woodmen Roads, where the new Falcon SuperWalmart and a host of shops, restaraunts and businesses (including the RE/MAX Properties Falcon office) are located. We looked at homes ranging from $235k to $275k (there are homes for even less on some smaller lots), and there were some very nice choices. Woodmen Hills has dues of around $125 per month that go for the recreation centers, water and sewer, and street lights. It is a little confusing, but the mailing address for homes here say Peyton, even though Peyton is quite a bit further northeast up Highway 24.
The Falcon area has been growing by leaps and bounds for years, it is very popular with people who work at Shriever AFB, Peterson AFB, the airport, or other east side employers, as well as anyone who just wants some extra breathing room at a reasonable price. Part of School District 49, Woodmen Hills is a good choice for someone who wants some city conveniences, and is willing to drive just a little for them, without the population density of areas like Stetson Hills.
