Master-planned neighborhood with plenty of homes and strong communal bonds
Developed on the vacant Golden Cycle Mill from the early 20th century, Gold Hill Mesa is a master-planned neighborhood with well-kept homes and a strong community spirit built into its design. “Human connection has been made a priority here, so neighbors can easily walk door to door or sit and talk on the front porch,” says Susanna Haynie, a broker at Co-Regroup with 12 years of experience selling in the area. Along with getting together for the Music on the Mesa concert series and community garage sales, folks here take advantage of the proximity to locally owned restaurants and boutique shopping in Old Colorado City. Many people are drawn to the neighborhood for the high-rated Cheyenne Mountain School District, and Haynie says many residents are retired military from nearby bases like Cheyenne Mountain Space Force Base.
