Golden

 

Golden Statue

Golden has a neighborhood for all:  historic, new build, modern, bungalow,  large home, condominium, town home, mountain living, town living, acreage, patio home…  Each offer a unique feel and carries different benefits.  While each of the neighborhoods provide their own character, the common thread of pride in and love for Golden is evident in the residents.

  • Downtown Historic / Colorado School of Mines & City Center:  Charming downtown Golden, walk to your favorite cafe, stroll Clear Creek, hit a yoga class, walk to Colorado School of Mines or simply take pride in the history of your neighborhood. The Golden Historic district stretches from Highway 58 to just past Golden High School, between Highway 6 on the west side and legendary Coors Brewery on the east.  Beautiful original and restored properties with the incredible charm of downtown Golden, just outside your front door.

 

  • North Ford neighborhoods:  Just north of Highways 58 and 93, with North Table Mountain as the eastern boundary lies a sweet eclectic neighborhood of original single family bungalow style homes, town homes and spectacular modern homes.  The location is as perfect as the charm and the views cannot be beat!
    • Mesa Meadows
    • The Village at Mountain Ridge
    • Canyon View

 

  • North Table Mountain North – Located at the junction of Highway 93 and 58th Avenue, just north of downtown Golden by 3+ miles, the location is incredible.  20 minutes to Boulder, 20 minutes to Downtown Denver, the gateway to the mountains and a spectacular view from your front and back door.
    • Table Rock: Nestled into the north base of North Table Mountain, lies this beautiful family community.  Cul de sacs, kids on bikes, a community pool, HOA and beautiful homes, all with your choice of trails up North Table Mountain.  Homes in 3,000 sq/ft – 5,000 sq/ft range.
    • Table Rock Ridge:  Newly developed Single Family homes, located at the junction of Highway 93 and 58th Avenue, adjacent to Table Rock.  Homes ranging from 1,974 sq/ft – 3,400 sq/ft.
    • North Table Mountain Village:  Developed in 1990s.  Open, well maintained homes with maintained green space weaving in between
    • Wild Horse Ranch
    • Table Mountain Heights
    • Apple Meadows

 

  • White Ranch/Pine Ridge Road:  The stretch off the Hogback just west of Highway 93 along Pine Ridge Road is home to ranch properties, Canyon View, a hidden little neighborhood developed into about 40 single family homes and Bear Tooth Ranch, a gated community with acreage and stunning estates.  The Hogback creates a feel of mountain living, while just a mile or two from downtown Golden and one of the best bagel shops in Colorado. White Ranch Open Space happens to be one of my favorite places to trail run.  If you have not hiked or biked the miles of trails, you should treat yourself.

 

  • Golden Gate Canyon: Wind up from Highway 93, west on Golden Gate Canyon.  This lovely drive quickly takes you from the feel of “town living” to Mountain properties.  Golden Gate Canyon offers quieter living, fewer cars, more land, opportunity to purchase an existing home or build your dream mountain property, as many have, and a change of pace.  Continue winding west (about 14 miles from downtown Golden) and you will land at Golden Gate Canyon State Park with miles and miles of incredible hiking, mountain biking and camping.  Residents love their property and consider themselves lucky to be among the trees, breathing mountain air with a short drive to Golden.  Golden schools. 

 

  • Coal Canyon – North and west of Golden, located west off of Highway 93, head up the canyon into the beauty of Coal Canyon.  Mountain home living with the convenience of Golden to to the south and Boulder to the north.  Coal Canyon typically boasts larger acreage and spectacular mountain views.  With available land to build and existing homes, Coal Canyon provides the opportunity to have convenience of big city culture and amenities within minutes while living the privacy and quiet of the mountains.

 

  • 32nd Avenue:  Nestled into the base of South Table Mountain and skirting the The Club at Rolling Hills (just east of downtown Golden) lies beautiful single family homes and the The Club at Rolling Hills neighborhood.  With incredible views of both South Table Mountain and North Table Mountain, a private neighborhood feel with quick and easy access to downtown Golden, trails, and the accessibility and convenience of restaurants, shopping and retail while maintaining the privacy of a neighborhood.

 

  • Youngfield & W. 20th Avenue – east of I-70 behind the hustle and bustle lies a gem of a neighborhood.  Single family homes, parks, excellent schools, and location convenience.  I understand why neighbors want to keep their spot a secret.  The homes are as lovely as the residents.  Golden and Lakewood schools.

 

  • Applewood:  This darling neighborhood is seeing lots of recent action.  Applewood is comprised of many original residents blended with young families and professionals.  It borders the east side of South Table Mountain, Applewood Golf Course and stretches to I-70 and Denver West and is easily accessible to about all you could name.  Primarily single family homes, quiet streets and neighborhood feel.  Such a lovely neighborhood.  Golden schools.

 

  • Pleasant View – South of Downtown Golden, lies the Pleasant View neighborhood, with a great blend of town homes, condos and single family homes.  You can grab a quick bus to Colorado School of Mines or the Jefferson County Offices, where you can catch the RTD Light Rail to Downtown Denver (or out to the Denver International Airport) without the hassle of traffic.

 

  • Heritage Park:  Tucked adjacent to Highway 6 and Heritage Road lies several neighborhood communities of single family homes.  The neighborhood pride runs as deep within this community as it does in the other neighborhoods in Golden.  The neighborhood ends at the well known Apex Park Trails – incredible mountain biking and hiking/trail running.   Golden schools.

 

 

  • Lookout Mountain – Head up 19th Street, cross the 19th Street bridge and begin your climb to Lookout Mountain.  At the base you will find the living community for Colorado School of Mines on the south side of 19th Street, and a gorgeous neighborhood of single family homes, Beverley Heights, on the north.  Wind up the mountain alongside cyclists to Lookout Mountain community of homes & Mount Vernon Canyon Club .  Mountain homes, micro-neighborhoods with views for days of east overlooking Golden, the mesas, Denver and beyond… or west spying the continental divide, valley, ridges as far as the eye can see.  Foothill & Mountain living with access to Golden in minutes.  Golden Schools (and there’s a bus!).

 

  • Genesee – via I-70 or Lookout Mountain, enter the lovely community of Genesee.  While still Golden, Genesee residents love their mountain living and ease of access to Golden and Denver with the peace, quiet (and wildlife) and space of mountain living.  Similar to Lookout Mountain, the view… the views are simply amazing.  Many micro-neighborhoods, gated communities, single family homes, available land and even town home communities comprise this beautiful mountain community and park.   Fantastic Golden schools and there’s a bus!
