Probably THE best place to live in the Denver Metro area and this will appeal more to the high-end luxury home buyer than anybody else is an area is called Cherry Hills Village.  Cherry Hills Village is surrounded by University Boulevard on the west side all the way over to Monaco on the east. It goes from the south at Belleview to the north at about Quincy. This is a fairly large area and there’s a couple of sub-areas within Cherry Hills such as Buell Mansion.

If this is the kind of area that appeals to you, I’d love the opportunity to assist you further!  I can provide you:

• market statistics
• demographics
• pricing
• even some specific information about some of the high-end listings in there.

This is a neighborhood that sells for an average sales price of about $1.9 million over the past 15 months. Now, there aren’t a lot of sales here as you can imagine. This area has fewer homes per square mile as the properties are typically at least 1, usually 2 acres and sometimes even larger. These homes range from the low multi-millions in the high $1,000,000’s, all the way up to the $15,000,000 to $16,000,000 range. This is truly the high-end of the Denver Metro area.

It’s very easy access to the freeways and to downtown Denver.  You have all the privacy and luxury that you would expect in this kind of price range.  There’s gated communities. Lots of activities within the community and
just a terrific place to live and raise a family.  This is home to a lot of the sports stars, the athletes and, of course, the successful business people.

So, if this is an area that you’re interested in, I’d love an opportunity to show you more about it.  You can use www.EasyDenverHomeSearch.com and just outline the area I mentioned, or just put in ‘Cherry Hills Village’ under the city search feature in the search criteria. You can call me directly at 303-526-2606 or just drop me an email Sam [at] SamWilsonGroup.com

Until Next time

Out in the Western suburbs of Denver in the city of Lakewood is a subdivision called Green Mountain. Perhaps you’ve heard of it or even driven through it. This is a great area that’s bordered on the north by Alameda on the south by about Jewell. It goes west to about 470 and east to Kipling.

It’s a very big area with a wide range of homes and a wide range of prices. The average price is $342,000 over the past 15 months. The foreclosure rate over here is very low, at about, only 3% to 4% of total homes sold, depending on the area. There are some parts of Green Mountain that have higher foreclosure rates and then there’s some that haven’t had a foreclosure at all. It just depends on the area and the price range within Green Mountain.

Also, prices have only declined between 9% and 10% on average in this area. That’s much better than the rest of the market. This is a stable area. It’s a great family-type community and there’s good schools and lots of activities. Plus, you’re just a hop, skip and a jump from the 3 major freeways to get you up to the mountains for playtime.

If Green Mountain is one of the areas that you’re interested in whether you’re looking for a brand new home just being constructed in Soltera or something older with fix-up opportunity, then I can certainly help you with anything in this area. You should use www.EasyDenverHomeSearch.com to start searching for homes in the area to see if there’s anything that meets your needs.

In the Western Suburbs of Denver there is a city named Arvada. Now, Arvada has about 12, maybe 15 different neighborhoods in it and there’s even smaller neighborhoods beyond that. There’s really too much information to cover all of Arvada but let me give you some general guidelines and, as always, if you’re interested in more information you can call me directly at 303-526-2606 or drop me an email Sam [at] SamWilsonGroup.com

Here’s some good information about Arvada.

First of all, the average sales price is right around the low $200,000’s. You can find properties in Arvada from the high $100,000’s all the way to the million dollar range. It just depends on what area you want to be in. Arvada runs from about I-70 on the south, all the way up to Stanley Lake and about 100th Avenue on the north end. Then it runs from the east side of Wadsworth all the way over to the West at Simms.

You can see this is a very big city on the map and there’s obviously a lot to choose from. There are foreclosures all over Arvada in all different price ranges. There are neighborhoods that are extremely stable – they haven’t had any foreclosures in the past 2 years. These are holding their values quite nicely.

Again, there’s just too many neighborhoods to get into, but I often get requests for Arvada and would love to take you through the city and give you ideas, based on the different price ranges. It features:

• a great little old town area right at 58th and Wadsworth – you just head to the West at 58th
• all kinds of great little shops
• restaurants
• coffee shops
• art

It’s just a great little community, especially on the weekends!

If Arvada is a city you’re interested in you can use www.EasyDenverHomeSearch.com to search for homes by the map area, using the streets I described or you can just put in the city of Arvada and price range you prefer.
