You’ll find Highlands Ranch real estate just about a mile west of Interstate 25 on the south edge of the greater Denver area. This neighborhood, known for its impressive network of parks and outdoor recreational amenities, was settled in the late 1850s. Highlands Ranch properties are located close enough to the rest of Denver so as to provide residents with all of the amenities of big city life, yet it’s far enough away from the center of activity so as to afford a little peace of mind.
Highlands Ranch homes are nearly surrounded by open spaces and recreational opportunities. There are 22 parks in this neighborhood, over 70 miles of trails and nearly 2,000 acres of open spaces. 85 percent of Highlands Ranch luxury homes are located within a quarter mile of a park, trail or open space. This neighborhood boasts of 25 acres of park land for every thousand residents. Add to that the two skate parks, the eight tennis courts, three community gardens, four dog off-leash areas, three lighted ball fields and an indoor inline hockey rink, and you can see why living in a Highlands Ranch luxury home is a truly desirable experience.
This is one of the fastest-growing neighborhoods in the metro Denver region, and for good reason. Residents can pick from everything to condos to starter homes to single family dwellings to larger estates. Highlands Ranch homes start at just under $100,000, and can go up to nearly $2,000,000. Average homes in Highlands Ranch come in at around $400,000.
