A multitude of housing options
Quimby’s wide residential streets are lined with a variety of housing types to suit any lifestyle. Most properties come with nice yards and driveways that are surrounded by mature trees. Contemporary two-story homes and Craftsmen with front gables and porches are common, range from 1,800 to 2,800 square feet and cost anywhere between $450,000 and $870,000. “It’s a great Denver neighborhood. My clients were able to get a single-family home within their budget. They were super excited to be there.” Wolfe says. The city has lower-priced homes compared to areas west of Denver, which makes it a great entry point for homebuyers. Quimby also has alternative housing options like townhouses and condos that go for $350,000 to $460,000.

Enjoying Quimby’s outdoor amenities and natural land
When Quimby residents want to explore the outdoors, there are several parks and greenspaces they can check out. Directly south of the neighborhood is Community Park, which has everything from a playground and walking trails to a skate park and softball complex. The Thornton City Pool on its grounds is a great place to cool down in the summer months, and Community Park’s rolling hills are popular for sledding in the winter. There are multiple open spaces dotting Quimby that act as nature preserves and allow visitors to explore the area’s natural land. Lamberton Lakes Open Space has trails along the waterfront, and Grandview Ponds Open Space is known for its prairie dog habitat. “One of the big open spaces – Pelican’s – has a disc golf course. You can access the Platte River along the riverwalk too,” Wolfe says. While there, hikers and bikers can hop on the Platte River Trail, which snakes beside the river for 14 miles from Denver to the northern end of Adams County.
