Lakewood.

Lakewood sits directly west of Denver, and it is far more varied than people expect.

The housing

What to expect in the area.

The older sections are mostly post war ranches. Belmar is a redeveloped town center with newer attached housing, and Green Mountain on the west side has its own era of building.

The streets

What it is like to live there.

It is large and not centered on any one thing. Belmar works as the downtown, Green Mountain has trails straight out of the neighborhood, and Bear Creek and the lakes run through the south.

At market

What to know before you buy.

Ranches of this era often still have the plumbing, wiring and furnace they were built with, and sometimes asbestos or aluminum wiring. An inspection catches all of it, and the lots are generous compared to the city.
