Modern homes and private lanes in rural Adams County

On the northern outskirts of Adams County, between hundreds of acres of farmland and open space, Box Elder Creek Ranch is a quiet, rural community with modern homes roughly 30 miles northeast of downtown Denver. A short drive from both Hudson and Brighton, the secluded feel of rural Colorado is apparent. “All of the homes on Box Elder Creek Ranch have at least an acre of land,” says Erica Hageman, a local Realtor with RE/MAX Momentum. “You have room to spread out and have privacy from your neighbors. A lot of the clients I work with like that there's the potential to grow and add additions.”
