Tri-Level 4BR Home Directly Across from Park and Pool
What first grabs you about 2217 Balsam Avenue is its location — sited directly across from Discovery Bay Pool and Balsam Park, with the East Memorial Trail a short stroll away. This tri-level home was built in 1997 and offers a practical 1,440 square feet of living space designed for family life and outdoor access. The lot is level and fenced, centering a generous backyard patio that immediately reads as the house’s social hub for barbecues, playtime, and quiet evenings.
Inside, the home’s layout prioritizes functional zones: an entrance level that steps up and down to living areas and bedrooms typical of a tri-level plan. The primary suite stands out with a walk-in closet and the privacy afforded by the floor plan. Two full bathrooms support four bedrooms, making this a strong fit for a growing household or buyers seeking rental potential. Recent maintenance items reduce near-term ownership concerns — the roof and exterior were refreshed in 2024 and the HVAC was serviced recently.
Practical systems and garage convenience are part of the package: central air, forced-air heat, and an attached two-car garage provide everyday comfort and storage. The property condition is described as average and may benefit from cosmetic updates to reflect a buyer’s personal style; those updates would be paired with one of the neighborhood’s most compelling assets — immediate park and pool access.
Parkview’s character leans toward family-friendly recreation. Mornings can begin with a walk or bike ride on the East Memorial Trail while afternoons can be spent at Discovery Bay Pool. For buyers seeking a home with outdoor lifestyle advantages — without moving to acreage — 2217 Balsam delivers. The listing was marketed at $325,000 in June 2026 and sits between local comparable valuations, reflecting both the home’s recent updates and the local market’s slight softening. For investors, the four-bedroom layout also aligns with rental demand in this part of Greeley, where similar homes estimate monthly rents around $1,800.
This property is a practical, well-located opportunity: a tri-level footprint that gives families distinct living zones, a fenced yard with a large patio, and direct adjacency to park, trail, and community pool. Buyers should verify lot boundaries, HVAC age and condition, and complete a professional inspection, but for those who prioritize recreation, proximity, and a solid maintenance baseline, 2217 Balsam Avenue is ready to be updated and enjoyed.

A factual market snapshot around 2217 Balsam Avenue.
The Parkview area of Greeley is currently showing signs of a slight market cooldown while inventory remains relatively tight. With about 2.5 months of inventory and an average days-on-market near 42 days, the market sits between a seller’s and a balanced market — sellers still have leverage in many price bands, but homes are taking slightly longer to move than a year ago. The median listing price in the 80631 zip sits at roughly $375,000 and one-year appreciation shows a modest decline of about 1.87%. Comparable sales within a half-mile to mile of this address suggest a valuation range of $310,000–$340,000, supporting the listing price of $325,000. Single-family, multi-bedroom homes in this pocket perform steadily thanks to strong local demand for family-sized rentals and owner-occupied properties; lease comps support an estimated monthly rent around $1,800. Given current inventory and recent maintenance (roof/exterior paint 2024, HVAC serviced), this property is positioned well for buyers seeking neighborhood convenience and for investors chasing rental yield — but prudent buyers should account for the slight market softening and complete inspection-driven negotiations.
