Mid-century homes with easy access to Olde Town Arvada
Located 11 miles northwest of Denver, the community of Alta Vista is a vibrant and unique neighborhood developed by the Hoskinson Brothers in 1954. Known for its impressive inventory of mid-century modern homes, Alta Vista also features traditional architectural designs which have filled in the area's gaps over the years. Once considered cookie-cutter, today these 1950s style homes are considered rare and are an additional draw for prospective buyers. "Alta Vista's central location offers beautiful natural spaces with easy access to Olde Town Arvada," says Lisa Magleby of RE/MAX Alliance. Both residents and visitors alike enjoy spending time at Olde Town Arvada's Main Street, lined with a diverse array of vintage shops, boutiques and restaurants to explore. Olde Town Arvada is also the place locals gather to celebrate seasonal events like Mardi Gras and St. Patrick's Day.

Mid-century modern homes with character
Alta Vista is known for its high concentration of mid-century modern style homes, many of which were built between 1950 and 1970. Giving off a sleek aesthetic, these homes often take the form of ranch-styles and feature low, flat roofs with clean straight-lines. Other common characteristics here include modest profiles, brick construction and open floor plans. Some homes also feature covered patios or carports instead of garages. Given their age, many houses have been updated or remodeled; and prices can range from $450,000 to $800,000, depending on the size of the renovation. For those looking for alternatives, prospective home buyers can also choose from condos or townhouses options. These properties, typically feature footprints of less than 2,000 square feet, and sell for between $240,000 for an older, smaller condo to $580,000 for a newly-constructed townhouse. Most streets in Alta Vista feature pedestrian sidewalks, which give residents spaces to walk while catching the sunset over the distant mountains.
