Named for its centerpiece park, Platt Park is cherished by residents for its diverse houses, excellent schools and famous shopping district.

Galligan has sold homes in the greater Denver area for almost 40 years and previously worked in the area.

Updated Victorian homes, foursquares and contemporary housing
Platt Park’s streets are lined with a treasure trove of eclectic and modern styles. “You’ve got a lot of older houses out there, built near the turn of the century,” Galligan says. "Very upscale stuff." Rows of Victorian gable-front homes, often adorned with colorful fish scale shingles, can be found on South Pennsylvania Street. Spanish Revivals with terracotta-tiled roofs pop up among more common Denver Squares and Craftsman bungalows. Modern renovations and contemporary builds, like those in Platt Park Townhomes, are also available. Prices can range from about $400,000 for a small condo up to more than $2 million for large, newly built homes. Most of the area’s homes sell for between $800,000 and $1 million and typically stay on the market for about two weeks.

I love the architecture of the old 40s and 50s cars and shops mixing with the modern new and remodeled buildings. The walkability and nearby parks are probably the biggest selling points.
