Living in
Cherry Hills Village, CO
Cherry Hills Village is one of the most exclusive residential communities in Colorado. A quiet enclave of large estate properties, equestrian land, and mature landscaping just six miles from downtown Denver. With a population of barely 6,000 and a median home price north of $2 million, it offers a level of privacy, prestige, and proximity to the city that is simply unmatched anywhere in the metro.
Why Buyers Choose
Cherry Hills Village
Cherry Hills Village is in a category entirely its own. Incorporated in 1945 specifically to maintain its low-density residential character, the city has stayed true to that founding vision for over 80 years. There are no commercial zones in Cherry Hills Village. No retail strips, no fast food, no apartment complexes. Just large estates, green land, equestrian properties, and one of the quietest residential environments you’ll find within a 10-minute drive of a major US city.
The median household income is over $200,000, and the per capita income exceeds $170,000 — figures that reflect the community’s position at the very top of the Denver luxury market. Many of the homes sit on one to five-acre lots, with older properties dating to the mid-century and newer builds offering modern luxury at the highest level. The Cherry Hills Country Club and several other private clubs anchor the social fabric of the community.
The proximity to Denver is genuinely extraordinary. Six miles from downtown, Cherry Hills Village residents enjoy the peace and space of an estate lifestyle while remaining minutes from every cultural, culinary, and professional amenity the city offers. For buyers who want the best of both worlds without compromise, there is no better address in Colorado.

What to Expect
Equestrian Lifestyle
