Established homes sit next to new construction
Adams Heights primarily features a mix of mid-century bungalows and ranch-style homes. Houses date back to the 1950s and 1960s, lending the neighborhood a charming, homey atmosphere. Many homes feature modern renovations and uniquely blend old and new aesthetics. Housing prices typically range from $250,000 to $450,000, making it one of the lower-priced suburbs within the Denver metropolitan area. “You can get excellent bang for your buck,” says Diener. “It’s a bedroom community in many ways, but that isn’t bad for the people wanting to commute instead of deal with city living.” Properties are often on lots large enough to feature modest yards, gardening space and driveways.
