New builds and quick access to downtown Denver
The neighborhood of Sterling Hills is not what comes to mind when thinking about the traditional look and landscape of Colorado. Despite being within reach of downtown Denver, the neighborhood feels as though it would fit in most New England neighborhoods. However, Sterling Hills seems to find its edge in a sense of quiet community and convenience. With nearby amenities within reach, and homes that are both larger and newer than surrounding areas, the neighborhood provides its residents with access to daily amenities without the hassle.
The neat streets of Sterling Hills
Homes in the neighborhood can be found in the form of farmhouses, craftsman-style homes, traditional builds, townhouses and condominiums. The houses here sit directly next to each other on quarter-acre lots, with modest grass squares for front and back yards. Residences are built with brick, vinyl and stone; some have front porches with columns. The current wave of development took place in the early 2000s. This is reflected in some exterior textures in the community – brick trim, two-car garages, wood and stone working along facades, and perfectly poured cement walkways. Sidewalks also line the streets here, enhancing the sense of community. Those looking to purchase a home in Sterling Hills can expect a price range from $275,000 for a two-bedroom condo to $665,000 for larger five-bedroom houses.

What I love about Aurora is the ethnic diversity. I've lived here all my life, and I would love to live here again after college. I love to travel and see what is out there in the world, but I wouldn't mind settling here at all. It has it's fair share of problems, but the type of problems that any other community would have. It is very clean, and although the weather is bipolar, it is beautiful on a good day. Lots of activity goes on here.
