Athmar Park, Denver Real Estate & Homes For Sale

"I love it here, this neighborhood is a lot better than my last one. Everyone here is a lot nicer, and packages are not stolen as often"

"We've lived in this neighborhood for 28 years. Three years ago we moved just one block to live on the north side of Huston Lake. Our neighborhood is an undiscovered gem in Denver -- 13 minutes to the Tech center or downtown or the foothills; incredibly affordable single-family homes; mostly brick bungalows; safe; peaceful; great Asian and Mexican food in walking distance; on the bus route; walk to the library. Huston Lake Park has a one-mile perimeter, and is full of playing fields, tennis courts, picnic tables, a playground, and the lake, which is a biological wetlands delight with permanent and migrating waterfowl (geese, ducks, coots, grebes, cormorants, pelicans), fish, crawdads, frogs, and more. We are a diverse neighborhood with newly arrived 20 somethings and long-resident 80 somethings and everything in between. We are anglo and latin and asian and african and native american. Our neighbors include stone masons and tree trimmers, lawyers and biologists and techies, artists and antique shop-owners on Broadway and animal keepers at the Denver Zoo, along with the occasional retiree. In short, we love it and we chose to stay close when we needed a larger space. "
