Cheesman Park Homes in Denver, Colorado

Cheesman Park is one of the oldest and most historic neighborhoods of Denver. It hosts the Humboldt Street Historic District or Humboldt Island on its west side. Homes in this historic residential district include stately mansions of varying architectural styles: Renaissance Revival, Georgian Revival, Colonial Revival as well as simple Denver Squares. 

There are condos, lofts in traditional-style four- and five-story apartment buildings, chic townhomes, and tasteful high-rise apartments with spectacular views. Cheesman Gardens, one of Denver’s finest elegant residential high-rise bldgs., sits on the western boundary of Cheesman Park amid the city’s impressive historic mansions on Humboldt Island.

The Cheesman Park neighborhood features tree-lined streets and wide sidewalks that lead to the 80-acre park for which this coveted Denver enclave takes its name. Some homes overlook the sprawling park and some even have views of Downtown Denver and the Rocky Mountain Range. 

Back in 1800s, Cheeseman Park was a cemetery. By the late 1880s, the cemetery was rarely used and in great disrepair. The US Congress permitted to change it to a park. So graves had been relocated, burials suspended, and plans for a beautiful park were in development. Named for water baron Walter S. Cheeseman, who donated the park’s pavilion in 1910, this neighborhood includes the area between northbound Josephine, the renowned Colfax, 8th Avenue, and Corona.

5 Star Zillow Review


Barry was fantastic to work with when purchasing my home. I was a first-time homebuyer, and Barry walked me through the process and was very patient with me. He was very proactive in trying to find me the right home given my budget with zero pressure. He ended up finding me a great home for a  great deal before it was even on the market. Even after closing, Barry has been available to help answer questions. Read more... - Sean Jason

4 Beds ⋅ 3 Baths ⋅ 4910704 MLS
Built in 1911 and thoughtfully remodeled, this Cole home keeps all of its historic character and none of the compromises. It also has more above-grade living space than any recent comparable sale nearby, so you get old-house soul without the old-house squeeze. The open floor plan lets light and conversation move freely through the main level, while the original charm reminds you this house has a story. The kitchen earns its spotlight: new appliances, a high-end BlueStar range, and a butler’s pantry that doubles as a prep and laundry room, so the mess stays tucked away when people are over. The primary suite earns one too, with not one but two walk-in closets. No more closet custody negotiations. Every other bedroom has an extra-large closet as well, which in a 1911 house is close to a miracle. Downstairs, a basement studio suite gives you room for guests, a home office, a creative space, or whatever comes next. Add extensive crawl space storage, which nobody gets excited about until they need it, and then it’s the best feature in the house. The big-ticket items are already handled: new roof, freshly painted interior, sprinkler system front and back, a new storage shed, and a fireplace and chimney prepped for a gas insert. Out back, the private fenced yard is generous by any city standard, with a deck, a grassy lawn, a flagstone patio, and a mature shade tree that is practically asking for a rope swing. Then there’s the location. Russell Square Park is one block away, recently refreshed with an expansive playground, a basketball court, picnic areas, and plenty of shade. RiNo, City Park, the Denver Zoo, the Museum of Nature & Science, and downtown are all close by, with quick access to I-70. Historic soul, modern function, room to spread out, and a backyard you’ll actually use. Come see it in person.
