Current Highlands Ranch, Colorado Homes For Sale

The first pioneers established this area more than 100 years ago. Then, it all began with the historic Ranch Mansion. That original home encompasses more that 17,000 square feet. And, it still stands today to represent “dad” Clarke and brave settlers who helped develop this magnificent area. Then, in 1977 a group of Denver businessmen finally sold the ranch and surrounding land to to the Mission Viejo Company, a California-based master planner and real estate developer. They were the original developers of the land and laid the foundation for the spectacular community that it is today. Now, Shea Homes develops new construction on the ranch.

Highlands Ranch Colorado

Highlands Ranch, Colorado is a Denver suburb popular with relocation buyers.

The first homes in Highlands Ranch were offered for sale in 1981. In 1997, the J.F. Shea Company (parent company to Shea Homes) purchased the community of Highlands Ranch from the Mission Viejo Company. Since then, many different builders have come to develop sub-divisions in and throughout the Ranch. Still, each developer abides by the community’s common covenants. As a result, those create a consistent residential look and feel. Plus, they help assure a more equal level of appreciation. Highlands Ranch homes fall into a price range that begins around $200,000 and can extend well above $1,000,000 in some subdivisions such as BackCountry.

This popular Denver suburb is served by the Douglas County School District. With more than sixty schools in Douglas County, this growing and dynamic district is the fourth largest district in the state. The district prides itself on trust, hard work, and quality processes are in every school. The whole district is also renown for providing their faculty with continuous education and training.
