University Park Neighborhood in Denver

Architecturally various to a small degree, University Park homes are primarily ranchers, surrounded by increasingly dominant neo-eclectics in the south and east and then (to a lesser degree) by Victorians, Denver squares, Tudors and colonials in the northwest corner. Other than some brick apartment buildings and fraternity and/or sorority houses bordering the perimeter, there are few—if any—duplexes, apartments or townhomes.

This is one of the few neighborhoods in the city that is almost purely single-family. Aesthetically the streets are wide, the trees are tall and intermingled with smaller brother and sister saplings, the sidewalks are separated from the streets by wide plots of grass, and the overall neighborhood tone is one of shady summer walks. Homes for sale in University Park are listed with zip codes that include 80210.

University Park lacks nothing in terms of amenities, with major thoroughfares on three sides, two wonderful parks, a quick straight drive to Cherry Creek, neighboring Denver University, a nearby light rail station and direct access to I-25.

From the fast food and acoustically sophisticated Newman Center for the Performing Arts on University Boulevard to the King Soopers, 24 Fitness and Pier 1 Imports on Colorado, there’s no everyday need that isn’t available in the hustle-bustle surrounding the University Park neighborhood. In contrast, the neighborhood itself is a quiet oasis with two of the smaller and most wonderful parks in the city. The namesake park is as aesthetically pleasing as it is packed with amenities such as tennis courts, a rugby field, baseball field, basketball court, playground and the historic Romanesque Chamberlin Observatory. The smaller yet equally wonderful Robert H. McWillams Park is a quiet hamlet with a basketball court, playground, umbrella shaded tables and an enchanting-looking wooden bridge. University and Colorado are both major thoroughfares leading to I-25. Contact the Neir Team today to begin your search for University Park Denver homes.
