Small-town lakefront life near Denver in Edgewater
Just West of Sloan Lake, Edgewater is a small home rule city in the Denver Metro area known for its close-knit community and easy access to downtown. The city grew around its waterfront location in the early 1900s and has maintained a small-town feel despite its proximity to Denver’s Central Business District. Tree-lined residential streets give way to lakefront trails and mountain views, creating an outdoor-oriented lifestyle without giving up city amenities. The community is just one-square mile, with neighborhood events and programs cultivating a know-your-neighbor feel. Its size keeps daily life walkable, while the surrounding metro area provides easy access to larger employment centers and amenities just minutes away.

Midcentury single-family homes
Sidewalks line the area’s residential streets and lead to ranch-style homes and bungalows, some featuring Craftsman flair with front-gabled accents over shallow front porches. Most homes were built between the 1920s and 1950s, though you can find the occasional new build on the market. Many houses feature fenced-in back yards, off-street parking and well-landscaped front lots. Single-family homes start in the high $300,000s and can reach up to $1.6 million, with the highest price tags on newer builds and homes with over 3,000 square feet. “The housing market is so eclectic,” says Sean Murphy, a real estate Team Leader of the Moxie Denver Team. “There could be a 900-square-foot property that needs remodeling sitting next to a renovated 3,000-square-foot house that sells quickly.” The neighborhood also has a small selection of condos and townhomes, with prices ranging from the mid-$400,000s to the low $700,000s.
The go-to spot for eatery options in Edgewater is Edgewater Public Market.
Joyride Brewing is a small craft brewer across the street from the banks of Sloan's Lake.
