Last night I attended the "Cherry Point Block Captain Appreciation" reception in my own neighborhood. This is a neighborhood in the Southeast part of Denver off Happy Canyon, just south of Hampden Avenue. I happen to be the Treasurer and Secretary of the Homeowners Association after living here for only a year. This explains why I was attending the aforementioned event.
At this function I was explaining that I sell real estate and I am trying to promote the Cherry Point neighborhood. This is a neighborhood that I think is a hidden gem and most of the other residents agree. When you explain where you live, "Cherry Point" isn't as recognizable as "Wash Park", "Observatory Park" or "Bonnie Brae". You generally have to describe where it is and what you like about it. I asked the other residents to join me in spreading the word.
What I like about Cherry Point is the general brick ranch style homes you can find there. They are situated on big 12,000 square foot lots with kid friendly yards which is one of the reasons we moved from our bungalow in Wash Park. The Cherry Point lot we have now is twice as big as the Wash Park lot we left. Everyone takes great care of their home and yard. Its very quiet and the kids can ride bikes in the street. We don't seem to have anyone in foreclosure or short sale situation (knock on wood).
We also border Cherry Hills North with easy access to the Highline Canal. In fact, the neighborhood is very similar to Cherry Hills North and at least on builder built homes in both neighborhoods. So, you can save about $200K and have lower taxes in Cherry Point when compared to Cherry Hills North. We are seeing real estate holding up pretty good with about $400K for a fixer-upper and up to $800K for a redone larger house.
Check out Cherry Point!!!
