Unique combination of traditional and trendy
These three east Denver neighborhoods strike the perfect balance between classic architecture, lush green spaces, and that laid-back Colorado lifestyle.

Real Estate Snapshot
If you’re looking for a neighborhood with character, this is it. Hilltop is known for its stately homes, manicured lawns, and elevated setting—quite literally, it sits higher than the surrounding areas, which means big mountain views and wide-open skies. Park Hill is one of Denver’s oldest and most architecturally rich areas, full of Tudors, Denver Squares, and Craftsman-style homes on tree-lined blocks. Crestmoor offers a blend of luxury and community, with large lots, winding streets, and some seriously beautiful homes, from traditional brick mansions to sleek, modern builds. Prices here typically start in the $900K–$1.2M range and can easily climb higher depending on location and size.
