Cheesman Park is one of Denver’s most prestigious historic neighborhoods, blending elegant homes, cultural landmarks, and one of the city’s largest parks. With stunning mountain and skyline views, stately architecture, and a vibrant community, Cheesman Park has long been a favorite for buyers who value both history and lifestyle.
Cheesman Park is home to about 5,000 residents. The neighborhood developed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and many of its historic mansions still stand today, alongside early 20th-century apartments and modern condos.
Housing includes Denver Squares, Victorians, luxury condos, and historic apartment buildings. About 45% of properties are owner-occupied, with a strong rental presence thanks to its central location and cultural appeal.
As of mid-2025, the median home price in Cheesman Park is about $750,000. Zillow places average values closer to $730,000, though condos can start in the $400s while luxury homes and condos near the park often exceed $1.5 million.
Homes and condos typically sell in 25–35 days, reflecting steady demand. Proximity to the park and historic architecture drive premium pricing.
The highlight of the neighborhood is Cheesman Park, a 155-acre green space with gardens, trails, and iconic mountain and skyline views. The Denver Botanic Gardens sits along its edge, adding cultural and natural beauty.
Cheesman Park is known for historic architecture. Victorian mansions, Denver Squares, and early 20th-century apartments line the streets, while newer luxury condos provide modern options.
The neighborhood is walkable and culturally rich. Residents enjoy quick access to Capitol Hill, Colfax Avenue, and Cherry Creek. Cafes, restaurants, and museums are minutes away, making it one of Denver’s most vibrant yet elegant areas.
