CREEKSIDE COLORADO LIVING WITH THE PRIVACY OF A HOME AND THE CONVENIENCE OF A LOW-MAINTENANCE COMMUNITY. At approx 7,600 feet, this beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 4-bath, 1,949-sq-ft Chimney Creek home offers something especially rare: only one shared wall, 3 levels of living, and no one above or below you...all in a peaceful setting perfectly located between the mountains and Denver. The light-filled main level features an open floorplan, tall ceilings, hardwood floors, and a wood-burning fireplace. Step onto the deck overlooking the creek and listen to the stream and the breeze through the aspen leaves—it feels like your own Colorado retreat. Wake up to the sunrise from bed and enjoy frequent sightings of elk, deer and wild turkeys. The finished walk-out lower level leads to the stream, creating yet another connection to the beautiful natural setting. With 3 full levels of living and an attached garage, you get both space and privacy in this mountain home. Truly move-in ready with extensive improvements within the last 3 years - including an updated kitchen and all 4 bathrooms, interior paint, ceiling fans, carpet, basement flooring and baseboards, roof, deck, A/C and water heater. The HOA makes this true lock-and-leave Colorado living. Exterior maintenance and insurance, trash and recycling, and lawn care are handled, and when Colorado snow arrives, your driveway and sidewalk are shoveled for you. Enjoy a clubhouse, swimming pool, and updated tennis and pickleball courts, along with nearby open space, hiking and biking. An active, resident-led HOA board is focused on maintaining the community and protecting its long-term value. Enjoy true foothills living while staying remarkably connected—approx 15 minutes to Red Rocks Amphitheater, 25 minutes to DT Denver for a game, show or dinner, and 45 minutes to DIA. Evergreen, dining, shopping, trails and mountain adventures are all nearby. LOCATION. UPDATED. PRIVATE. LOW-MAINTENANCE. THIS ONE HAS IT ALL!

Your Colorado Real Estate Hub

While we are the premier authority on Highlands Ranch real estate, our commitment to our clients extends far beyond the borders of Douglas County. The Denver Metro real estate market is incredibly vast, encompassing historic urban neighborhoods, rapidly expanding northern suburbs, and established southern enclaves. Because this portal is tethered directly to the local MLS, you have unfiltered access to every active listing, price reduction, and open house across the entire Front Range.

A Builder's Perspective: Evaluating the Front Range

When searching for homes across the Denver Metro area, buyers are faced with a massive variety of construction eras and soil conditions. My background as a builder is your greatest asset in this diverse market. If we are looking in Highlands Ranch or the newer south Metro suburbs, I am fiercely analyzing foundation grading and the presence of expansive soils—a notorious Colorado issue that can crack foundations. If your search takes us closer to central Denver or older historic suburbs, my focus immediately shifts to aging electrical panels, cast-iron plumbing, and structural settling. You aren't just getting an agent who unlocks the door; you are getting a structural advocate who ensures you don't overpay for someone else's deferred maintenance, no matter where in Colorado you choose to live.

Metro Denver Real Estate FAQs

Can I use this page to search for homes outside of Highlands Ranch?
Yes. While we specialize in Highlands Ranch, this search portal connects directly to the local MLS, allowing you to find active properties across the entire Denver Metro area.
How often are these real estate listings updated?
Our search feeds pull directly from the MLS, updating every 15 minutes to ensure you see the newest properties before they hit major national syndication sites.
Do you represent buyers across the entire Denver Metro area?
Yes. While Highlands Ranch is our primary focus, our structural expertise and market knowledge extend throughout the Front Range to serve our clients wherever their search takes them.
What should I watch out for when buying older homes in Denver?
Older Metro Denver homes often hide cast-iron plumbing, outdated electrical panels, and foundation settling. We actively evaluate these components during our tours.
How does your builder background benefit my home search?
I evaluate properties from the foundation up, helping you identify hidden liabilities like expansive soil damage or failing mechanicals before you go under contract.
How do I schedule a showing for a property I find here?
Simply click the 'Schedule a Tour' or 'Contact' button on any active listing, and we will arrange a private showing at your earliest convenience.
