🏗️ New construction & builders

Largely built out — predominantly established 1970s–2000s subdivisions
Lennar — Vermilion Creek collections
Toll Brothers — Heights at DTC
Richmond American — Cityscape at Dove Valley
For more new build — look to Parker, Aurora (Southlands) or Lone Tree
💡 Buying new construction? Have me represent you — usually at no cost to you

In many builder communities the builder will often cover your agent's commission, so it's usually free to you — but you generally must register me as your agent on your first visit, before you tour. Then I negotiate price, incentives, upgrades and contract terms on your side.

🎓 Schools

Centennial is served by Cherry Creek / Littleton (A). Centennial straddles two districts — west of roughly Colorado Blvd is Littleton Public Schools; the eastern Smoky Hill area is Cherry Creek. Confirm assigned schools by exact address. Always confirm the exact school a specific home feeds into before you buy — I can verify that for any address.

🚗 Getting around & commute

DTC~5–15 min
Downtown Denver~20–30 min

To Denver International Airport: ~35–40 min via E-470.

🌲 Parks & trails

Centennial Center Park, deKoevend Park, the High Line Canal Trail, and huge Cherry Creek State Park just north.

Cherry Creek State Park — 4,000+ acres, a reservoir, beach and miles of trail
High Line Canal Trail — flat multi-use path winding through the city
Centennial Center Park — signature playground, splash area & event lawn
deKoevend Park — Big Dry Creek trails linking the regional network

55+ & senior living

Centennial sits within easy reach of the south metro's active-adult communities and senior services. Ask me for current availability.

The Malley Senior Recreation Center (Englewood) and Arapahoe County serve the north-metro communities.

Touring a builder or active-adult community? Register me as your agent on your first visit — my representation is typically at no cost to you, since the builder covers it.
