Mesa View Estates balances nature and convenience
With major retail centers on one side and Green Mountain on the other, Mesa View Estates accommodates both an outdoor lifestyle and commercial convenience. This foothills community sits about 5 miles away from downtown Golden and features a walkable residential landscape of custom homes, complete with an active homeowners association that plans annual events and contributes to neighborhood beautification efforts. “People are really tied into the community there. You don’t really have people hiding in their houses. People always know each other,” says Julie Leins, a former resident of the neighborhood and a Realtor with The Leins Group of Keller Williams Advantage Realty. Mesa View Estates keeps commuters connected to employers with nearby highways and light rail stations, and shoppers have plenty of options at the upscale Colorado Mills Mall. Enhanced by a strong community presence, Mesa View Estates maintains a balance between access to nature and city amenities.

It’s easy to stay active with foothills trails in your backyard
Covering more than 2,400 acres and rising to an elevation of about 6,800 feet, William F. Hayden Park on Green Mountain is a destination for hikers and mountain bikers. Residents of Mesa View Estates have some of the easiest access to this lively habitat, with multiple trailheads at the neighborhood’s edges. Follow the trail across the highway to reach Dinosaur Ridge, where visitors can view fossils and tracks along designated paths. Red Rocks Park and Amphitheatre is just a few miles away, offering opportunities for fitness adventures and concerts. Additional trails in the area include the 36-mile regional C-470 Bikeway.
Within the neighborhood itself, kids can explore the playgrounds and fields at Estates Park and Golden Heights Park, the latter of which is also home to a spacious skate park. As part of Mesa View Estates, residents also receive complimentary access to the outdoor pool in the adjacent Sixth Avenue West community. And while the pool is popular in summer, it’s nearby ski resorts like Echo Mountain that attract visitors in winter.

Neighbors celebrate Turtle Fest
The Mesa View Estates HOA organizes a handful of events throughout the year, including the annual Spring Fling, Fall Fest and Holiday Sleigh Rides. But the biggest celebration is Turtle Fest, which draws about 500 attendees and features live music, games and bouncy castles for the kids. “During the summer, they’ll have the food trucks come in there, and it’s one of those just really great communities where people know and hangout with each other,” Leins says.

Million-dollar homes with views of Green Mountain
At the base of Green Mountain, Mesa View Estates comprises 650 custom homes built primarily in the 1990s. The landscaped grounds feature manicured gardens that border a mix of Tudor Revival-influenced properties, some of which offer more than 6,000 square feet of living space. These luxury estates easily top the million-dollar mark, with most homes selling between $1.2 million and $1.6 million — significantly more expensive than Golden overall. Adding to the appeal is a network of paved sidewalks and paths that keep residents connected with neighborhood parks and mountainside trails.

Experiential learning programs at Golden High
As part of Jeffco Public Schools, students can attend Kyffin Elementary and Bell Middle, which score grades of A-minus and B-plus on Niche, respectively. Many students will move on to Golden High, which scores an A-minus and is known for its high-tech STEM courses that focus on things like bike mechanics, 3D modeling and geometry in construction. Since 1969, the school has also offered Junior Rafting, an experiential learning program where junior-year students spend time bonding on rafting on some of the state’s best rivers.

No shortage of shopping options at Colorado Mills Mall
With both the mammoth Colorado Mills Mall and Denver West Village within 2 miles, residents can find nearly everything they need close to home. Target, Whole Foods, World Market and Marshalls sit within blocks of each other, interspersed with casual chains such as Chipotle and BJ’s Restaurant & Brewhouse. At the corner of West Sixth Avenue and Indiana Street, a small shopping center hosts local restaurants Coriander and Bono’s Italian, which Leins says has been there “forever.” Leins also says that one of the most popular spots is 240 Union. “If they have an event at their home, they will hire 240 Union to do the catering,” Leins says. For even more options, downtown Golden puts a modern twist on the Wild West vibe and is filled with upscale and rustic shops, restaurants and breweries.

Take the Sixth Ave Freeway to Denver or Golden
For drivers, Mesa View Estates' proximity to Interstate 70 and State Route 470 makes it convenient for exploring the entire Denver metro area or heading into the mountains. West Sixth Avenue, often called the Sixth Avenue Freeway, provides a direct route for commuters heading to the heart of either Denver or Golden, although locals say that traffic near Denver’s Interstate 25 interchange can sometimes get dicey. Commuters can also hop on the RTD light rail at the nearby Red Rocks Community College station to reach the city or the Denver International Airport.
Highway I-70 by Mesa View Estates offers great connections to The Rocky Mountains and Denver.
Mesa View Estates residents can use 6th Avenue to get to Golden or Denver.
