Arvada Homes for Sale – Mix Old and New in NW Denver

Arvada homes for sale in Historic Olde Town that forms the heartbeat of northwest Denver.  A creative, multicultural population of over 120,000 chose Arvada homes.  But folks traveling to Boulder also stop in Arvada, joining residents who stroll the vibrant pedestrian-friendly streetscapes.  Extraordinary museums, galleries, theater, festivals, restaurants, quaint shops, and status on the National Register of Historic Places are just some of the reasons that make Olde Town Arvada destination stop.

Arvada Real Estate Mixes It Up

A collection of charming neighborhoods and unique homes give Arvada its one-of-a-kind personality.  Older renovated buildings snuggle next to trendy new row houses, high-end Arvada homes, and urban loft homes.  The mix happened as the Arvada Urban Renewal Authority (AURA) spearheaded impressive revitalization projects.  For example, Water Town Residential Village now surprises anyone who has not been around for a while with its transformation.  Also, now mixed-use developments at Grandview Plaza and Reno boast gorgeous views of the Front Range and the Denver skyline.

Getting Around Made Easy in Arvada

Olde Town Arvada offers commuter-convenient transportation.  The RTD Park and Ride, the Denver International Airport shuttle A-line, and an anticipated Olde Town Light Rail Station keep people moving without congestion.  In fact, Olde Town brags about the ample parking spaces (over 1,100) that welcome travelers along the Wadsworth Bypass (near Interstates 70 and 76) to drop in for some camaraderie and a bite to eat or to do a little business or stroll through an art walk or farmer’s market.

Arvada’s Lifestyle

During construction of the new Olde Town Library which serves 40,000 patrons a month, AURA redeveloped Olde Town Square, a popular site for community events.  The spacious area includes an interactive fountain, a treed picnic area, and extensive perennial gardens.  And the Chamber of Commerce, merchants’ association, and the city are actively seeking more unique restaurants with special ambiance to add to the charming Olde Town collection.

The community calendar is chocked full.  For over 90 years, the Harvest Festival in September has been the place for family fun, a carnival, booths, free concerts, a parade, and a family movie.  Over 30,000 people come out for that one.  Then there is the Golf Strike Festival in June celebrating the first gold strike in the area.  In December, the cozy Lagniappe (French for “small gift”) Christmas festival with tree lighting ceremony, free carriage rides, carolers, photos with Santa, and hot chocolate and cider comes straight out of the chapters of our heritage.

Add in live street music during the summers, one-of-a-kind coffee shops, live entertainment, and smiling face–and you may have just found a new place to call home.
