Cherry Hills Village
Autumn reflections on one of Cherry Hills Village's private lakes, framed by estate homes.
Greenwood Village
The Denver Tech Center at dusk — office towers, fountains and greenway parks in Greenwood Village.
Cherry Hills Village and Greenwood Village are two of metro Denver's most affluent communities, sitting side by side. Cherry Hills Village is estate-only with almost no commercial development — quiet, wooded, equestrian-friendly, home to Cherry Hills Country Club. Greenwood Village blends estate neighborhoods with the Denver Tech Center's office core and the Landmark's walkable retail/dining. Very different daily experiences, both at the top of the market.

Estate-only residential — almost no commercial activity within town limits. Winding roads, mature trees, equestrian and pedestrian trails, minimum lot sizes that preserve a semi-rural feel just minutes from downtown Denver. Cherry Hills Country Club and Cherry Hills Village Elementary anchor community life. Long a home for prominent metro Denver residents.
Mixes estate neighborhoods (Greenwood Hills, The Preserve) with the Denver Tech Center's high-rise office core and the Landmark — a walkable retail/dining/entertainment cluster on the town's east side. More going on day-to-day than Cherry Hills; a working commercial center as well as a residential community.

Things to do: The redesigned John Meade Park has a fishing pond, pavilion, and open play areas; Cherry Hills Country Club (private) is one of the country's storied golf clubs; the High Line Canal Trail winds through town for walking, running and cycling; extensive equestrian bridle trails connect neighborhoods; Kent Denver's athletics and arts programming draws community events.
Dining: The Landmark cluster (Del Frisco's, Ocean Prime, Eddie V's, Shanahan's, Hapa Sushi, JING) is the town's dining anchor, with additional clusters along E. Orchard Rd and DTC office towers. One of metro Denver's densest upscale-dining zones.

Both are established, mature communities where most neighborhoods are outside metropolitan districts — property tax structures are simpler than in the newer south-metro suburbs. That said, always confirm with your title company on any specific parcel; there are exceptions.
