South Aurora suburb in top-rated school district
Carriage Place’s subdivisions are located in South Aurora, roughly 20 miles from Colorado’s capital and were erected in the late 1970s and early 1980s. “It’s aesthetically pleasing and has nice wild grasses. There are mature trees, and it seems well kept,” says broker Courtney Carr, who has been with Usaj Realty and selling in the Denver area since January 2024. “It has just been slower to get to the game; over time, it will get better and have more resources. That’s what’s beautiful about it too. You can make the community what you want.”
Welcome to the Carriage Place neighborhood.
The Carriage Place neighborhood is located in Aurora, County southeast of Downtown Denver.

Subdivisions lined with traditional-influenced single-family houses
Summer Valley Ranch and Carriage Place’s subdivisions are lined with single-family houses with attached garages. Bushes and shade trees decorate the front lawns, where contemporary traditional, raised ranch and traditional ranch-style homes sit. Depending on square footage, prices range between $370,000 and $675,000. Nearby townhouses adorn traditional architecture and are painted in muted hues, which list for $220,000 to $440,000. “It’s like an affordability pocket, and if looking to get into the real estate market, it’s a great option,” Carr says. In fact, Carriage Place’s average home values in 2023 and 2024 were around $100,000 less than the national median and nearly $200,000 less than that of the Denver Metro area. The West Toll Gate Creek, which runs parallel to the Toll Gate Creek Trail, may be susceptible to flooding during rainstorms, though a rarity considering Denver’s arid climate. However, properties are distanced away from the water, to combat potential flood risks.
