Conveniently located near Sloan’s Lake and Edgewater, with easy access to downtown Denver, Golden, and points west, West Highland is a tight-knit community that combines a small-town feel with big-city amenities.

The neighborhood is a small oasis filled with small local businesses and a blend of Craftsman bungalows, Victorians, and modern scrapes.

Unlike new-build neighborhoods, the combination of old historic neighborhood charm with old main streets and small local businesses make West Highland unique.

Residents here enjoy a tight-knit community that provides a small neighborhood feel through community events like the Highlands Street Fair.

The Denver neighborhood offers a mix of older and newer homes, historic row homes, and duplexes with some newer condos and townhouses. Buyers who want the combination of classic architecture and modern amenities can find in the neighborhood’s homes that have been renovated and expanded.

Buyers want homes in good condition because, with higher prices and interest rates, they don’t want the hassle or additional costs to remodel. Fixer-uppers is West Highland are still selling but not in as high demand as in years past.

Prices in West Highland continue to climb, and potential buyers often enter bidding wars. Newer and updated homes sell quickly for prices above last year’s peak. The average sale price sits above $1 million for a single-family home. And with less than a month of available inventory, most homes sell in two to three weeks or less.
