Central Park, the neighborhood formerly known as Stapleton, was built on the site of Denver’s old Stapleton International Airport. Since the early 2000s it has grown into one of the city’s largest master-planned communities, with newer homes, dozens of parks and a strong family focus.

Parks and green space are everywhere, from the large Central Park itself to smaller neighborhood parks, trails and the Bluff Lake Nature Center. Community pools are a summer highlight. Shopping and dining are close by at Northfield and around the town centers, and the Central Park light rail station on the A Line connects to Union Station downtown and Denver International Airport.

Tips for buyers and sellers
Many homes in Central Park are part of special districts or community associations, which can add to property taxes or monthly fees. Ask for the full picture before you buy. Because many homes are similar in age and style, pricing is very comparable street to street, so sellers win with condition, updates and presentation.
