Ruby Hill Denver Homes & Real Estate

Ruby Hill Homes in Denver, CO

Ruby Hill offers some of the best bargains for house hunters within Denver city limits and affords one of the best views of downtown Denver. Most Ruby Hill homes are modestly sized brick ranches built in the 1950s with the manicured front lawns and back detached garages common to houses built in that era. A thriving communal garden and strong neighborhood organization give the area a true sense of community while bike and paths and walking trails crisscross the landscape.

Here's a bit of history: In the late 1800s, miners camped along the river in this area looking for gold often found red gems instead—the name Ruby Hill was born—despite the fact the stones they found were actually garnets.
