About Highland

Highland is the neighborhood where Denver ’s historic elegance and new urban energy meet. Stroll through blocks lined with colorful Victorians, tree-shaded bungalows, and welcoming front porches, all just steps from buzzing restaurants, cafes, and parks. It’s a place where weekend mornings start with coffee from a local roaster and evenings bring out neighbors for sunset walks on the pedestrian bridges into downtown. Whether you’re seeking vintage architecture, skyline views, or a true sense of community, Highland delivers an unmatched mix of old soul and city excitement. See what’s for sale below.

Highland is one of Denver’s oldest neighborhoods—once its own city before annexation, and still proudly distinct. Some say the real magic is in the details: cast-iron fences, painted gables, and front yards still landscaped with heirloom roses. Residents host annual porch parties, and the Highland Street Fair brings neighbors together for music, food, and local art each summer.

This is where Denver’s dining scene shines. Along 32nd Avenue and into LoHi, you’ll find cult-favorite restaurants like Root Down, Uncle, and Little Man Ice Cream. The Truffle Table is a neighborhood staple for wine and cheese nights, while Avanti offers rooftop views of the skyline. The area’s indie coffee shops, like Black Eye Coffee, fuel mornings for remote workers and parents alike. For even more culinary adventures and vibrant nightlife, LoHi’s scene is just a stroll across the Highland Bridge—see LoHi homes for sale for those who want even closer access.
