Southeast Westminster offers access to Denver with a lower buy-in
In Southeast Westminster, a municipality 10 miles north of Denver, you have all the advantages of living in the mile-high city, without the high cost of living, says Realtor Brittany Heckenburg with Keller Williams Avenues Realty. “Denver is known for its microbreweries, downtown nightlife and sports teams,” she says. “But with home prices high, Denver is a harder market to buy into. In Westminster, the buy-in is entry-level, and you can have the same lifestyle.” With Route 36 running through Southeast Westminster, the neighborhood also offers fast access to Boulder, Heckenberg says.

Condos, townhouses and single-family homes, some with lake access
In this well-established section of Westminster, where most homes were built between 1950 and 1980, the streets are wide with mature spruces and pines and traditional sidewalks. Here, you’ll find midcentury-modern, ranch and split-level homes with large picture windows, some with brick facades, starting at $400,000, and contemporary two-story homes with prominent garages that start at $600,000. Properties in the Hidden Lake subdivision list for as much as $1.3 million and feature boat docks and houses with up to 3,000 square feet of living space. “Hidden Lake is only one of a few lakes in the Denver area that allow powerboats,” Heckenburg says. “If you love boating and want to live near Denver, Westminster is a great option.” Condos and townhouses are also available in the $225,000 to $475,000 range, many with community pools and biking/hiking trails nearby.
