Central Park Home Buying Guide

Denver's largest planned community — newer construction, parks and trails, built on the former Stapleton airport site.

What it's like to live here

Central Park (formerly Stapleton) is Denver's largest planned community, built on the site of the old Stapleton airport, with a grid of parks, trails and a town-center commercial district.

Housing types

Predominantly newer construction (2002 and later) single-family homes, alongside townhomes and condos, generally with more consistent floor plans than Denver's older neighborhoods.

Character

Family-oriented and suburban-feeling despite its Denver address, with highly rated schools, extensive parks and a strong sense of planned community.

Proximity

A short drive to downtown Denver, with quick access to I-70 and Denver International Airport, and its own retail and dining hub at Eastbridge Town Center.

HOA prevalence

Very common — nearly all Central Park homes belong to a metro district and/or HOA that funds parks, trails and community amenities. Budget for these dues and review what they cover before you buy.

Price data

Recent reports put typical home prices in roughly the $550,000 to $750,000 range, making Central Park one of the more accessible newer-construction options within Denver city limits, though pricing varies by section and proximity to parks.

Property tax and financing considerations

Because Central Park sits within one or more metro districts, total property tax can run higher than Denver's citywide average once metro-district mill levies are added on top of the standard city and school levies — worth confirming for the specific address, not just the neighborhood average. On the financing side, newer construction and consistent home values generally make for straightforward conventional underwriting.

Financing a Home in Central Park

Central Park's newer housing stock generally makes for straightforward conventional financing, but metro-district assessments can add meaningfully to your total housing payment beyond the base mortgage — make sure your lender is factoring in the full mill levy, not just the city average, when estimating your payment.
