Living in Roxborough Park, Colorado: Red Rocks and Foothills Living

Home for sale at 2348 Aspen Knoll Drive, Estes Park, CO 80517

Roxborough Park, in Douglas County southwest of Littleton, is one of the most scenic places to live in the Denver metro. Homes sit among dramatic red rock formations at the edge of the foothills, with wildlife, trails and open space all around, yet shopping and the south metro are a short drive away.

What it’s like to live in Roxborough Park

Outdoor living is the draw. Roxborough State Park’s red rock trails are next door, Chatfield State Park offers boating, biking and paddleboarding nearby, and Arrowhead Golf Course is set among the rocks. Deer and other wildlife are common neighbors. Everyday shopping is available in the area, with more options in Littleton and Highlands Ranch.

Types of homes

  • Single-family homes nestled into the rocks and hillsides, many with dramatic views
  • Newer communities with family homes, parks and trails
  • Townhomes in select areas

Tips for buyers and sellers

Check HOA rules and fees, which can be important in a scenic, planned community. As with any foothills home, ask about wildfire mitigation and insurance early in your search. Commute times to downtown and the Tech Center are longer than from closer-in suburbs, so test the drive. Sellers should feature views and outdoor access with professional photography, including twilight shots.
