Avenida at Centerra

Avenida at Centerra, an independent living rental community for adults 55 and older in Loveland, Colorado, was planned as a three-story, 180,000-square-foot building in a modern farmhouse design on six and a half acres at the corner of Highway 34 and Boyd Lake Avenue. Its address is 3903 E 15th Street, inside High Plains Village in the Centerra master-planned community. The announced plans called for 154 one- and two-bedroom apartments, about 10,000 square feet of indoor shared space and more than two acres of landscaped outdoor areas.

Independent living at Avenida at Centerra is based on a private apartment rented on a lease, and the community looks after ongoing apartment maintenance for its residents. Monthly rent covers electricity, water, sewer and trash for each apartment. Pets are welcome under the community's pet policy, which includes a pet charge, a refundable deposit, and breed and other restrictions. Life in the community includes the 5 to Thrive Resident Enrichment Program, along with a calendar of community-sponsored events and scheduled outings away from the property.

A creative arts center and a group fitness and strength center are among the indoor spaces, and the Great Room is set aside for events and group gatherings. The pool has a lap and aerobic zone and lounging areas, and pickleball courts are also part of the shared amenities. The announced plans for the building also listed a theater, a yoga studio, a separate spa, an upstairs lounge with Front Range views and a creek-side picnic area.

Inside the apartments, the full kitchens pair stainless steel appliances with stone counters and upscale cabinets. Designer flooring, walk-in closets, a washer and dryer in the unit, individual climate control and a private patio or balcony are listed among the apartment features, and more than half of the bathrooms have walk-in showers. The one-bedroom layouts include a plan with one and a half baths, while the listed two-bedroom plans each have two baths.

Listed monthly prices start at $1,955 for a one-bedroom and at $2,800 for a two-bedroom, and each is quoted as the total monthly leasing price, which combines base rent with all mandatory monthly fees. Between those figures, the A2 one-bedroom is listed from $2,100 and the A3 plan, with its one and a half baths, at $2,575 a month. Several plans are priced on request, so current rates are worth confirming with the community directly before planning a move.

Avenida at Centerra suits adults 55 and older who want a leased apartment with its own kitchen and laundry, together with a pool, pickleball courts and an enrichment program shared with neighbors. Residents who are drawn to the outdoors have several points on the property that connect to the Centerra trail system, which covers 6 miles. Dog owners have a dog playground on the grounds as well, alongside the pet policy that welcomes pets into the apartments.

The building stands just east of Boyd Lake along the Loveland and Greeley Canal trail, and Boyd Lake State Park is at 3720 North County Road 11-C in Loveland. Medical Center of the Rockies, a Level I trauma center on Rocky Mountain Avenue, is about a mile east of the community. The Promenade Shops at Centerra, a retail center of nearly 500,000 square feet, are at Interstate 25 and Highway 34 in Loveland.
