"Sloans Lake, the most water you can find in Denver"
Sloans Lake is a quaint next door neighbor to downtown Denver. Bounded between 13th, 29th, Sheridan, and Federal, it is filled with a diverse population drawn to the beauty of the lake and panoramic views of the Denvers skyline and the rocky mountains.
Houses range from historical Victorian home plans to cozy bungalows, contemporary duplexes, and modern condos giving Sloans Lake residents an eclectic neighborhood drive and homes for all tastes. Many new builds are occurring along the south side of Sloans Lake, opening more opportunity for prime residential and commercial real estate investments. Young professionals and young families tend to settle around Sloans Lake for its proximity to downtown Denver, the lovely lake and parks, and boutique shopping and dining experiences.
Sloans Lake is the second largest park in Denver, calculated at 177 acres, and has its own Marina for those who enjoy boating sports. The neighborhood surrounding the lake is undergoing a large population boom, and quickly filling with many new and exciting restaurants and breweries.
Edgewater sits to the west of Sloans Lake and offers a quaint selection of eateries, Joyride Brewery, Coda Coffee Shop, US Thai, pubs, and more. North of Sloans Lake is a local hotspot known as Highlands Square. Highlands Square is filled with trendy boutiques, coffee shops, cafes, artisan eateries, Mondo Vinos premier liquor and wine shop, Sweet Cows homemade ice cream, and much more. SloHi (where Sloans Lake meets the Highlands) presents even more opportunity for coffee consumers, handcrafted bagels, cycling enthusiasts, and a selection of English cask beer from Hogshead Brewery.
Denvers downtown amenities and attractions are within a quick reach, as this neighborhood offers a 10 minute average commute to the heart of downtown. Additionally, its west-of-the-city location permits a nimble pursuit of the majestic rocky mountain range and unlimited outdoor activities.

"Chaffee Park, North Side"
Denvers Chaffee Park Neighborhood is located on the north side of Denver within close proximity to Downtown Denver.
Chaffee Park neighborhood has many older homes with larger lawns and garden spaces. There is a strong Italian and Latino influence that gives Chaffee Park its character. A lot of younger families have been moving into the neighborhood due to its accessibility to Highway I-25 and I-70 and short commutes into Downtown Denver for work.
Chaffee Park was named after Jerome B. Chaffee one of the founders of the City of Denver and Republican U.S. Senator from November 1876 to March 1879. Chaffee Park, along with the Regis neighborhood, are the north Denver neighborhoods that border the adjacent areas of Southeast Arvada and Twin Lakes.
With direct access into Sunnyside and Lower Highlands (LoHi), you are a short uber ride away from some of the cities best restaurants and social spots. Make sure to pack a picnic and bring a kite to enjoy the centrally located Zuni Park.

"Auraria Neighborhood in Denver, It's more than just a college campus!"
Auraria neighborhood is located in central Denver adjacent to Lower Downtown. Home to Auraria Campus and the Pepsi Center, there are a very select few residences that are in the neighborhood itself.
Auraria campus is home to three separate higher education institutions enrolling approximately 44,000 students. The Community College of Denver, Metropolitan State College of Denver and the University of Colorado Denver share classroom space and general services on the campus. The Campus is open 7:30 a.m. until 10 p.m. Monday through Friday and offers multiple degrees from two year associate certificates to Ph.D. degrees.
There are many historic places in the Auraria neighborhood. The Tivoli is a Denver landmark brewery that recently started brewing its beer again after it was shut down in 1966. The Ninth Street Historic Park is the oldest restored block of residences in the city. Emmanuel Gallery is Denvers oldest church building, which was constructed in 1876 and currently serves Auraria as a shared art gallery for the three schools on campus.
The Pepsi Center is home to Denvers various sports teams including the Colorado Avalanche, Denver Nuggets, Colorado Mammoth, and the Colorado Crush. The Pepsi Center also hosts various concerts and venues including Cirque du Soleil, Adele and Garth Brooks.
You can also enjoy the amusement park of Elitch Gardens which has been in Denver for 125 years and is one of the oldest urban amusement parks in the country.
While there aren't many residences for sale in Auraria, there are some very nice lofts that you could live in right next to Lower Downtown Denver.
