Prices are good. Interest rates are great but edging upwards. According to Paula Moore’s article in the Denver Business Journal on June 8, 2009, the highest average selling prices for real estate in Denver are $527,216 in the Boulder plains area and $663,311 for homes within the Boulder city limits. The lowest average prices for single-family homes in the Denver metro area rang up in southern Aurora at $92,230, the mountain area of southern Jefferson County at $147,125, and near the Denver International Airport at $152,204.
With the excellent interest rates and the ability to refinance, some people are choosing to upgrade their homes by adding more rooms. Some are remodeling. Yet there are families who are choosing to add more acreage and a couple of horses for their children or for a mid-life diversion.
Horses enjoy an evolutionary niche as grazing animals that herd together for mutual protection. They are quite social and love the horse circuit in the Mile High City as much as their owners do. One larger property, suitable for several horses, would make them smile. A smaller property under five acres would be fine for one horse—as long as someone in the family will fulfill the social need.
Horse properties are marvelous buffers from the hustle-bustle of life. We can steer you towards a number of properties in great school districts located less than 20 minutes from business parks or the downtown metro area. As the city expands, these choice properties with present covenants allowing horses could face redevelopment or rezoning if horse lovers resist them.
There are small ranchettes on less than five acres and larger ranches with hundreds of acres to roam. No matter the size, the peaceful equestrian oasis promises to offer residents a world just a canter away from stress and a trot from equestrian heaven. All while supplies last.
