Sherrelwood, an established and walkable residential community
Whether you’re spending a winter day warming up with local barbecue or biking to a neighborhood park on a hot summer afternoon, you’ll find a welcoming community in Sherrelwood. “Sherrelwood is very similar in price to neighboring Welby, although Sherrelwood actually has a few newer homes and more homes that have been updated and remodeled in the last 5 to 10 years,” says associate broker Mark Neises of Coldwell Banker Realty. “But the proximity to mobile home communities doesn’t attract everybody,” Neises says, referring to the abundant mobile and manufactured homes that sit just north of Sherrelwood and can deter some potential buyers from settling here. If you do choose to settle in Sherrelwood, though, you’ll find narrow sidewalks that offer a comfortable route for morning walks, and as you reach the top of a hilly street, you can catch a glimpse of the Denver skyline to the south and the hazy mountain range to the west. With relative affordability, charming parks and popular attractions nearby, Sherrelwood offers suburban comfort just north of the city of Denver.
After a busy school week, treat the kids to some of Denver’s finest barbecue at Smokin’ Dave’s BBQ & Brew. This award-winning local barbecue franchise has won the hearts of locals and visitors alike with its signature tangy barbecue sauce, which you can thankfully buy by the jar at any of Dave’s four locations. Across the parking lot, you can step back in time with a traditional breakfast skillet or a loaded burger at Great Scott’s Eatery, which celebrates the aesthetic of a classic 1960s diner. And if you’re craving Mexican, you can’t go wrong with anything at Las Delicias, a long-running local favorite that relies on generations-old recipes to produce the most flavorful dishes.
When summer rolls around, Sherrelwood residents know just where to go. Sitting just north of the community, Waterworld is Westminster’s premier water park, with adrenaline-pumping options for the whole family. Spend an hour relaxing on the lazy river or get your heart racing with a trip down the six-story speed slides. And on your way home, you can stop off for groceries at King Soopers, which is located just off 84th Avenue. With relative affordability, charming parks and popular attractions nearby, Sherrelwood offers suburban comfort just north of the city of Denver.
Renovated ranch-style homes and luxury estates
Housing options range from traditional brick ranch-style builds to contemporary Craftsman homes with dusty blue siding. While you may spot a few more luxurious estates with creative brickwork and Spanish-style elements, most of the homes are on the modest side — especially those that are still standing from the 1960s. Many of these homes have been lovingly cared for and updated by long-time owners, but there’s still a stark contrast between the community’s earliest blocks and developments that have popped up within the last two decades. Surprisingly, though, you won’t find nearly as much contrast when it comes to price: Both new and old residences fall within the $400,000 to $550,000 price range, which is significantly lower than Westminster overall.
Bike-friendly trails, sports facilities and playgrounds
Some hills in the area are no joke, and although the streets are wide enough to accommodate cyclists alongside cars, many residents opt to save the bike for flatter trails, like those at 8-acre Cobblestone Park. Here, you’ll find a relaxing, looping path encircling an open field perfect for an afternoon picnic. The circular theme continues with the park’s colorful playground, which features a balance bridge. At the southwest end of the community, Waddell Park serves as the home base for local baseball leagues. Four fields allow for multiple games on the weekend, and kids can burn off any extra energy at the vibrant, shaded playground. At the heart of the community sits Sherrelwood Park, a 23-acre space where you can relax by the reservoir, play a quick game of catch on the field or stroll the paved and well-maintained trails. Waterworld is Westminster’s premier water park, with adrenaline-pumping options for the whole family. Spend an hour relaxing on the lazy river or get your heart racing with a trip down the six-story speed slides.
Sherrelwood schools, including those with career programming
Students can start their academic journey at Sherrelwood Elementary School, which maintains a grade of C-minus on Niche and has served the community since 1968. Following Ranum Middle School’s transition to a career and technical education facility, students living in Sherrelwood can attend Shaw Heights Middle, which also maintains a grade of C-minus on Niche. Here, students can join unique STEM elective courses that include app creation, forensic science and aerospace. Alternatively, children interested in performing arts can receive a creatively focused kindergarten through eighth-grade education at the Metropolitan Arts Academy. Most students will move on to attend Westminster High School, which maintains a grade of C on Niche and offers career and technical programs for topics such as culinary arts, cinema and biomedical science, among many others.
