Coming home to West Centennial cul-de-sacs
Ranch-style homes stretch across West Centennial cul-de-sacs, highlighting the flat landscape. Colonial Revivals join these early 1960s and 1970s homes in subdivisions, with ranch-style homes starting at $585,000 for a three-bedroom and Colonial Revivals starting at $790,000. Most single-family homes peak in price between $625,000 and $700,000, though in situations where their square footage topples over 4,000 square feet, home values list over $1 million up to $2.4 million. Paved sidewalks join Colonial Revival architecture in townhouse communities, so residents can easily step outside and take their dogs for walks. These homes typically list between $410,000 and $548,000, with two to three bedrooms.
