Outdoor recreation and urban fun within reach
Situated north of Denver in Adams County, Thornton’s Cherrywood Park balances suburban comfort and Colorado’s emphasis on outdoor recreation. While much of the area was once open farmland, modern development has transformed it into a suburb filled with affordable houses, open greenspace and easy access to main roads. “Thornton has grown a lot in the last few years and it continues to grow,” says Danny Hoeft, Realtor with eXp Realty and longtime resident of the area. “It’s got its own identity and its own amenities, but it’s still close to Denver and the outdoor stuff people love, too.”
Cherrywood Park is a wonderful neighborhood where you can stroll safely with your dog.
With rising home values and ongoing development, Cherrywood Park continues to grow in popularity, establishing Cherrywood Park as a smart investment for homeowners.

Traditional styles at some of the best prices in the Denver metro
Developed primarily in the early 2000s, Cherrywood Park offers single-family properties in a variety of ranch-style, two-story traditional and Craftsman-inspired designs. Home prices typically range from the mid-$600,000s for smaller ranch homes up to around the high-$800,000s for larger models on bigger lots. Townhouses and condominiums can also be found, starting at $400,000 and reaching up to $525,000. These prices are below the Denver median and have stayed the same over the past year. Homes stay on the market for about 25 days, which is shorter than the national average. “You’re getting more house for less money in a place like Cherrywood Park,” says Hoeft. “As far as the Denver metro goes, it has some of the lowest prices you’re going to find.”
Cherrywood Park thoughtfully designed townhomes and condos, providing low-maintenance living options that make Cherrywood Park appealing to first-time buyers and downsizers alike.
Many of the large two-story homes in Cherrywood Park feature Craftsman-inspired details like tapered columns, covered porches, and decorative trim, adding character and curb appeal throughout the neighborhood.
