Progress Park, a suburb with a downtown

A few blocks from most homes, residents of Progress Park can access the charming bustle of Downtown Littleton with its well-reviewed breweries and restaurants, light rail stop and prewar architecture. But they can also enjoy the quiet suburban streets, expansive park system, and high-quality schools this small city outside Denver is known for.

Ramblers and the occasional prewar Craftsman

Homes in Progress Park benefit from their proximity to the old downtown area, as many are more architecturally interesting and historic than you typically find in modern subdivisions. Smaller, ranch-style and midcentury modern homes from the postwar period predominate, listing in the range of $500,000 for a three-bedroom. Every so often, a lovely prewar Craftsman with three bedrooms will come on the market for under $600,000, featuring original shingles and painted half-timbering. On the eastern, more suburban side of Progress Park, home buyers may find postwar Tudor-style mansions with sprawling wings on acre-sized lots in the range of $1.5 million.

Parks and toy train rides galore

Progress Park is bordered on the north by the expansive Belleview Park with its wildly popular toy train rides. Littleton and neighboring cities share an excellent trail system. The Big Dry Creek Trail is a paved greenway running along the neighborhood's northern edge. The Littleton Community Trail runs north along the eastern border and all the way down past Littleton city limits. Progress Park connects to Cornerstone Park, which connects to Belleview Park. In addition to miniature train rides, this connected system has a skate park, a cricket ground and a dog park called the Canine Corral. Slaughterhouse Gulch Park, which the Littleton Community Trail crosses, is on the southwestern side of the locality.

You can even play shuffleboard at Cornerstone Park.

Littleton becomes foodie spot due to dining renaissance

As Denver has become a foodie city, Littleton has seen its share of overflow. Eater Magazine recommends Romano's Italian Restaurant, just a few blocks south of Slaughterhouse Gulch Park, on its list of 19 Places for Primo Pizza in Denver. Eater also recommends ViewHouse Littleton, a new 10,000-square-foot restaurant with a rooftop bar from which, on clear days, patrons can see clear to the Rockies. There are several restaurants and shops along the section of Littleton Boulevard bordering the south of the neighborhood. From Syrian food to locally sourced burgers, Littleton Boulevard is hopping. There's a branch of the regional supermarket chain King Soopers on the eastern corner of Littleton Blvd and a Sprouts Organic Market just a mile north in neighboring Englewood.

The light rail is where it's at

The Littleton stop on the D Line of Denver's impressive light rail system is two blocks south of Slaughterhouse Gulch Park. Commuters heading to Downtown Denver can take the light rail from the Littleton Station to the 18th–California Station in under 30 minutes. Drivers can take Route 85 / Santa Fe Drive, 10 miles north to reach Downtown.

GreatSchools: The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
