The neighborhood began development in the early 2000s, with new builds continuing to pop up south of Jewell Avenue. Craftsman and modern traditional styles are common, along with a selection of townhomes. “With HOA fees and higher property taxes, monthly payments here tend to be higher compared to other Aurora neighborhoods,” says Tracy Ellis, a local Realtor with eXp Realty. “But you’ll find larger homes and a more lifestyle-oriented community.” Single-family homes start in the low $400,000s and reach the mid-$700,000s, while townhouses range from the mid-$300,000s to around $500,000.
Modern traditional and craftsman architecture lines the streets.

A short drive to Southlands shopping
“While there’s no shopping and dining within the neighborhood, you’re only 10 to 15 minutes from Southlands,” says Ellis. “Some people see a lack of walkable shopping as a negative, but a lot of people move to Murphy Creek to be a bit more tucked away.” Southlands is a large outdoor mall with dozens of businesses, from department stores and chain restaurants to name-brand boutiques and specialty stores. For a meal out, you can visit:
Pho 90, which serves Vietnamese fare
Ted’s Montana Grill, known for its Old-West-inspired dishes and bison burgers
Legends Coffee, selling espresso and baked goods
Commuting to Denver and nearby transit offerings
