History

The Broadhurst Neighborhood is a development of 110 houses nestled in a wooded area off Fall-City Road and North Ames Lake Road. Each house sits on approximately 2.25 acres and is architecturally unique. The development was originally called the Estates at Thornbury, a 350-acre high-end residential subdivision, but the name was changed to Broadhurst by the Homeowners Association.

The neighborhood was initially part of the 1988 “Street of Dreams” in which over 40,000 viewers came to view the week-long home tour event showcasing different prominent architects. 

Broadhurst contains a 13-acre private park for common use, equipped with a paved circular running trail, a swingset, a jungle gym, and two short hiking trails that were built by Eagle Scouts. The trails have been used by the Broadhurst Social Committee as a Haunted Halloween walk for the past few seasons, delighting kids and adults alike.

FUN

Culture

The neighborhood has a fun culture, catering to both young and old. There is an active social committee involved with the Homeowner’s Association. Each year the neighborhood puts on a summer picnic, and the local firefighters have been known to stop by and spray the children with rainbow-high arcs of water. Broadhurst also enjoys an avid book club, a garden club, and even has its very own sledding hill, affectionately nicknamed “Horse Hill”, where on a snowy day you find many residents joining in on parent vs. kid snowball fights.
Residents have been known to host pop-up happy hours in their driveways on sunny evenings. Lemonade, donut/coffee, and flower stands pepper the streets, sponsored by enterprising young entrepreneurs when the weather turns warm.
Broadhurst is a welcoming community with many other events throughout the year too, such as food truck visits, holiday light judging contests, rock painting parties—pretty much anything our residents can imagine and organize.

HOA

Served & Governed by HOA

The Broadhurst Home Owners Association is a non-profit organization made up of all the neighbors within the community, governed by set of documents including a Covenants, Conditions & Restrictions and Bylaws. Each property has one vote within the association. The Broadhurst HOA board, a group of 7-9 homeowners, exists to represent the organization in day-to-day activities and manage any decisions that need to go to the larger association membership for voting.
The board appoints a group of 3-5 homeowners to serve as the Architectural Control Committe (ACC). The ACC is responsible for reviewing all plans to improvements of lots within the neighbors, ensuring homes & lots will continue to harmonize with the neighborhood aesthetic & natural environment. Within the association there is also a social committee that plans all neighborhood events & a welcoming committee that reaches out to new neighbors. Every role, on the board & committees, is 100% volunteer.
