Happy Friday everyone! Looking for fun and impactful things to do to celebrate Earth Day tomorrow? 303 Magazine has a list of 15 events going on around the metro this weekend. Looking for something closer to home? Head out to the Rocky Mountain Arsenal National Wildlife Refuge from 11am-2pm tomorrow for their celebration, or grab your neighbors and get the kids involved with the Earth Day clean-up at the Bluff Lake Nature Center from 9am-11am. Planting trees and flowers in your own backyards and gardens is another great way to improve the environment while beautifying the neighborhood.
Before I jump into real estate, I want to make sure you saw the exciting fundraising event coming up next month on Sunday, May 21st at FlyteCo Tower. The first annual Central Park Mini Golf Classic to benefit CPUN and the Central Park Business Association will have fun activities for all. The mini golf portion will consist of 3 shotgun style tee times at 12:00pm, 2:00pm and 4:00pm. Golfers and non-golfers alike can enjoy live music, food & drink specials, a costume contest, comedians, and prize giveaways including a kids’ motorized car. Read all the details and purchase your tee times here. We can’t wait to see you there. If you value being “in the know” on the neighborhood via these types of posts be sure to follow the Scoop on Facebook, IG and YT!
It should be a busy weekend in real estate and we’re excited to be a part of it. Come see our team at our 3 open houses (more about those open houses below). Let’s dive into the real estate for the week…
New Central Park Listings
This week there are 11 new listings on the market in Central Park. Don’t miss this incredible listing with a nearly 11,000sq ft lot and mountain views on Butterfly Park…
6262 Galena St: $1,595,000

Listed by Joe Phillips with Focus Real Estate. Open house Saturday, April 22nd 11am-2pm and Sunday, April 23rd from 11am-2pm.
Under Contract Central Park Homes
This week 10 homes went under contract in Central Park. An interesting statistic to note is that the average number of days on market was only 5 days. This is down drastically from late 2022 and very early 2023.
Sold Central Park Homes
There were 8 homes that sold/closed in the neighborhood this week and you can see those in the link above.
All Central Park Active Homes
There are now 43 total active resale listings in Central Park. Perhaps slightly different than the greater Denver area, this seems to be making the real estate market in Central Park fairly balanced for Buyers and Sellers. As long as Sellers put in the effort to prep their home well (deep cleaning, professional staging, minor updates/repairs/painting when needed, etc.) and list the home close to market value, they can likely expect an offer fairly quickly. In some cases, multiple offers. On the flip side, Buyers can expect to have a few home options within their price range to choose from and, depending on how close to market value a home is listed for, they might be able to get a home under contract without too much competition and without waiving inspection objections like we saw in 2021 and early 2022. Every home and situation is slightly different, so it will help to have a real estate professional who specializes in Central Park on your side when buying or selling in the area. In case you missed these listings, I wanted to share these great homes below.

For Rent Central Park Homes
Not ready to purchase? There are 8 rentals currently listed in the MLS in Central Park. You can check those out in the link above. I have helped dozens of families find rentals and I don’t charge any fees to do so. Let me know if you need help finding a rental, contacting a landlord or property manager, and/or to start the application process. I can set up an automated search for you so you’re notified any time a new property becomes available.
If you’re a landlord with a rental in or around Central Park, our team would love to be your property manager! Here’s our property management website and our Services and Pricing page.
That’s a wrap for this week’s update. As always, if you’re thinking of selling and are wondering what your home is worth, I’d be happy to tour your home and give you a free home valuation. If you’re thinking of buying, even if not for 6 months or more, I’d love to discuss your real estate needs and wants, set up an automated search for you, and help you navigate steps you’ll want to take BEFORE the perfect home pops up. That way you’re in a position to put in an offer when you find your dream home. Give me a call, or send me a text at (720) 633-6282. If email is more convenient, you can reach me at [email protected].
Have a great weekend!
Disclaimer: Our Friday real estate updates are meant to be a “roundup” type post where we discuss all listings in Central Park, not just our own. It’s our way of making sure we follow the market closely and we share it with the Scoop readers because we know many of you like to track real estate in the area as well. Many of the listings in these posts are not our company’s listings and we wanted to mention that here to make sure it’s clear. Thanks for reading the Scoop!
