Greenwood Village residents celebrate their quality of life on a daily basis. After all, they live in a community known as a great place to live, raise a family, work, and retire. Greenwood Village, population 14,587, was once a rural area that today mixes urban developments with residential neighborhoods. Located near Cherry Hills Village, Centennial, Littleton and the Denver Tech Center, Greenwood Village real estate is distinctive and matches the charm of the area. The average price for a condominium is $246,824 while the average price for a single-family home is $881,246. Like its neighbor, Cherry Hills Village, Greenwood Village offers luxury, custom homes in The Preserve with one to two acre properties costing up to $5 million.
Greenwood Village is recognized for its commitment to safety, environmentally-friendly programs, and cultural, social and recreational opportunities. Examples of green initiatives include the maintenance of parks, and the emphasis on planting Colorado-friendly trees that are adaptable to the semi-arid climate and don't require excessive watering. The trees help reduce greenhouse gasses and provide natural cooling to buildings and pavement. In turn, residents and businesses also reap the benefits of the trees - from lower energy bills to reduced noise and higher property values.
Parks and open space are indeed abundant in Greenwood Village. Comprised of nearly 200 acres of developed parks and 252 acres of open space/underdeveloped land, there are trails for walking, bicycling, and parks for recreational sports or playing with your family. Greenwood Village also has created specific parks and trail amenities for equestrians - a group that has always been important to the community.
While there's plenty to marvel at in the outdoors, shopping and dining have always been at the heart of Greenwood Village. Now with the newly open Village Shops at The Landmark, an expanded selection of specialty boutiques, restaurants and entertainment venues are available to mark any occasion. Also new, The Landmark Residences offer luxury condominium living, ranging from $300,000 to $3 million, as well as a European Village of Manor Homes starting at $800,000 and Brownstones priced from $1.5 million to $3 million.
Residents also benefit from a comprehensive transportation system made up of light rail, bus service and "Call-n-Ride", and easy highway access on C-470 make it easy to get downtown to Denver International Airport and destinations farther south.
