Real Estate in Alpine Woods – ALP

Alpine Woods Area Overview

Most of the Alpine Woods homes are landscaped, many with grass yards, giving a definite suburban feel set in the mountains. There is a bit of slope toward the south end, but the majority of the parcels are on flat terrain. The homes are newer, modern and mid-sized to large. Underground utilities add to the pleasant, at home look of the area.

• New, modern upscale homes
• Suburban neighborhood look and feel
• Clean yards and nicely maintained homes
• Landscaped, grass-covered, open to the sun
• Underground utilities

Natural Surroundings

Set amidst other developments, the wildlife here includes the small mammals and birds that hang out in suburban yards—grey squirrels, ground squirrels, occasional raccoons, blue jays, robins and many types of finches and sparrows. The views are mostly suburban.

The area is away from the most intense snows of the west end and far enough east to still get nice rain almost as often as the east end of the valley. The flat terrain and open skies make it easier to handle the snow that can disappear quickly in the sun.
