What life is like in Belcaro
Large, tree-shaded lots and luxury homes line the quiet streets of Belcaro, one of Denver's oldest neighborhoods. Over the years, the community has been home to U.S. senators and well-known Denver names, including at the Phipps Mansion, a landmark known across the city. With its tree cover and well-landscaped properties, Belcaro has a park-like feel, with wide streets and sidewalks leading to community green spaces, centrally located schools and the small businesses of University Boulevard. It's also close to premier retail at Cherry Creek Shopping Center.
Luxury estates and million-dollar builds
Most houses here were built between the late 1930s and the 1960s, with some ‘90s and early 2000s homes here and there. Walking through the area, you’ll see everything from Tudor Revivals and large brick foursquares to Spanish-inspired estates and cozy storybook cottages. Backyard pools and spacious lots are common, with some reaching over half an acre. “The neighborhood has very intricate, windy roads with established trees,” says Alysa Bohm, a local real estate agent with eXp Realty. “Homes here are older than in some surrounding neighborhoods, but are beautifully updated and maintained, so you’ll see higher price points.” Single-family homes start in the mid-$700,000s and reach around $8 million, prices increasing along with square footage, luxury upgrades and yard space. High-end condos and townhomes can be found on the neighborhood’s north side, with prices ranging from the low $300,000s to around $2.7 million.
Some estates blend Tudor and Cottage styles in Belcaro.
The neighborhood is full of charming mid-century homes.
