Historic neighborhood with mountain town charm
Olde Town Arvada in this city about 124,000 people stands out with its historic character and dense cluster of shops and eateries that some would say are just a patio hop away from each other. “We have the picturesque mountain town feel of when you go into a city in the mountains,” says Arvada City Council member Shawna Ambrose, whose district partly covers Olde Town. “The Olde Towne has been preserved pretty well. That’s why you have this neat downtown feeling. We have some of the best restaurants in the Denver metro area. The boutiques are very cute, with one of a kind gifts that make for a great shopping experience.” The historic entities include the water tower and the old Arvada Flour Mill, a white three-story barn structure sitting right along the railroad tracks and Olde Wadsworth Boulevard. During the pandemic, Arvada closed off some streets in Olde Town to help make more space for outdoor dining. Leaning on feedback from residents, the city kept those conditions in place. While the city plans to revisit this decision in the future, Olde Town currently contains street sections intended to further encourage walkability. Examples of these efforts exist on Olde Wadsworth Boulevard, near its crossing with West 57th Avenue, where couples can commonly be seen walking hand-in-hand across colorful artwork painted over the road. Enclosed outdoor patios, with a few decorative plantings installed just outside the gates, now take up the entire sidewalk in front of institutions like the Arvada Tavern and the Cereal Box. “We used to call ourselves the ‘Mayberry of the Rockies’ just because of the way we were a small-knit community,” says Arvada City Council member Bob Fifer. “We’ve adapted to the times and changes, but everyone here knows the local shop owner and their neighbors. It makes us attractive. That’s what makes it a desirable place to live.”

Bungalows, ranch-styles and Craftsmen from the early to mid-1900s
A notable portion of the housing here originates to the period between the turn of the 20th century to right before World War II. Price points for these homes – many single-story bungalows and houses with Craftsman features - can go from the upper $600,000s to just under $900,000. Some of the stock also dates back to the post World War II era when many homes were built to house workers of the now defunct Rocky Flats Plant, a manufacturing facility just northwest of the city that produced nuclear weapons parts. Homes from around that era, which includes ranch-style houses, can run from the upper $400,000s to the upper $500,000s. There also some two-bedroom condominiums in brick contemporary buildings that can go for around $640,000.
Craftsmen homes in Olde Town Arvada can go for around 600 thousand to 900 thousand dollars.
