Buzzy community near Downtown Denver
Clayton was originally developed in the late 1800s, and its gridded streets reflect this past as many homes feature steeply pitched front gables with intricate designs. “This is a great slice of old Denver,” says Sam Neumann, a Realtor with Keller Williams who has been selling homes in the area for over four years. “There’s a rich history here and a lot of older charm.” Located about 3 miles northeast of Downtown Denver, the community has preserved its individuality with a mix of traditional homes, local businesses and refurbished spaces.

Rivers and Roads Coffee is a gluten-free café serving breakfast and lunch, while next door, Flux Studio is a ceramic studio and gallery offering pottery classes. For classic Mexican dishes and fresh corn tortillas, head to Lucero’s, a family-owned spot that has called Clayton home since 1962.

Festivities at the York Street Yards
With nearly 500,000 square feet of space, York Street Yards hosts a vibrant collection of outdoor and indoor events. Each Wednesday, locals can grab lunch from a rotating cast of local food trucks. In 2023, the campus hosted larger events such as the annual gala for the Museum of Contemporary Art Denver and Denver Fashion Week. The eight-day festival highlighted local and national designers with runway shows, workshops and more.
Traditional homes with traces of new construction
Established in the late 1800s, Clayton features a wide variety of homes reflecting the area’s development as neighborhoods around Downtown Denver have become more desirable. “The market can move quickly, but it’s still not quite as fast as neighborhoods further south like City Park,” Neumann says. Residential streets are densely populated as striking Queen Anne builds with rounded, turret-like gables cast shadows over smaller bungalows and cottages. Homebuyers can find three-bedroom Queen Anne homes built in the early 1900s starting at around $625,000 or three-bedroom bungalows with shaded front porches ranging from about $530,000 to $760,000. In the northeast corner of the community, new construction brings a touch of modernity to the streets, with two-bedroom units in the Greenway Townhomes community starting at about $640,000.

Clayton is known for the City of Nairobi Park, an animal-themed green space named after Denver’s sister city. The park has a ballfield and playground where kids can climb on life-sized animal sculptures. Locals also gather at Schafer Park, which features tennis courts, basketball courts and a playground. From mid-October to late April, Denver residents see an average snowfall of 57 inches and gather at indoor spaces such as Dive Volleyball and Sports Center or Stick and Feather, an indoor golf facility.
