City & County of Denver

Chelsey’s Denver work tends to start in the southeast — Southmoor Park, University Hills and Virginia Village, close to her office — and reaches into central and west Denver, from Alamo Placita to Sloan’s Lake.
The common thread is older housing stock, where inspection knowledge and a realistic read on renovation costs matter as much as the list price.
Southeast Denver is largely post-war: brick ranches and bungalows in University Hills, Virginia Village and Southmoor Park, many on wide lots with mature trees. Central neighborhoods like Alamo Placita and Speer have Denver Squares, Victorians and vintage apartment buildings. West of downtown, Sloan’s Lake and West Highland mix century-old homes with new builds; Central Park, the former Stapleton airport site, is almost entirely new construction.
The city park system — Washington Park, City Park, Sloan’s Lake, Bible Park — is the backbone of daily life, with the Cherry Creek and High Line Canal trails linking neighborhoods.
Each neighborhood has its own commercial strip, from Old South Pearl and Cherry Creek North to Tennyson Street. Southeast Denver residents tend to use the DTC and Belleview corridor for errands.
I-25 runs through the city north to south, with light rail along the same corridor to the DTC. Hampden Avenue (US-285) and Colorado Boulevard carry most cross-town traffic in the southeast.
