July 25th – A Berkeley Regis Grandview

Rooftop Deck

As the days of summer are getting hotter, so is the selection of homes coming on the market. We are in the peak month of listings so you will be certain to gain a great perspective of the Denver market by joining the bike tour tomorrow or for the rest of the summer!

This week due to the unfortunte demise of Peaberry Coffee, we are selecting a different meeting place. Tenn Street Coffee sounded like the perfect place to start the tour as one of the listings is less than a block away. Located at 4418 Tennyson, you should be able to find ample parking nearby, maybe grab a bit to eat at Lakeside Waffle which is next to the Oriental Theater.

If you are not familiar with the wonders of this area, you should be!There is lots to see and do and eat and drink and be healthy and take care of your Pet kind of places.

So on to the tour…
4454 Tennyson Street, $322,500
5113 Stuart St, $299,900
5146 Stuart St, $399,900
4921 Newton St, $237,000 *value priced little gem!
4285 Grove St, $294,900
4218 Irving St, $375,000

It is sure to be a HOT day tomorrow, so after you SIGN UP for the tour, check your bike tires, fill a water bottle and tell your friends to come along!

If you still want more…I will be riding to the Dragon Boat Festival at Sloan’s Lake and would be happy to bring you to one more listing along the way and then off to see some of the beautiful boats and cultural contribution that the DBF brings to NW Denver!

Bike Tour – July 11, 2009

Bridget — Tue, 07 Jul 2009 05:13:16 +0000

First off, I have to mention last Saturday…my Fourth of July was absolutely complete after watching all the young Americans riding their decorated bikes down the street towards the Highland Farmers Market! It was outstanding! All the little kids with their red, white & blue, and balloons! Ending up at the park across from Little Man Ice Cream for a picnic and slice of pie! Well done Highland Neighbors! That was fantastic! (Sorry I didn’t think to bring my camera!)

Also, if you are looking for a great Saturday Farmers Market, the Highland Farmers Market was well stocked with local fruits and veggies as well as natural beef, organic wine, lotions, massage, face painting and live music!

Now…on to this week’s tour!
Potter Highlands / LoHi selection of listings ranging from $315,000 to $375,000. There is a special loft that we are adding in for a treat to look at one of the finest city views currently available for only $559,000.

We’ll take you to the Pedestrian (and Bike) Bridge over I-25, show off a great community garden, and I hope you have time to join me for an Ice Cream cone when we’re all finished at the Little Man! One of the pleasures of living in this great community is the wonderful neighborhood places like the Little Man! Thanks for reading and I hope to see you Saturday! Don’t forget to register to ride!

Little Man Ice Cream on the 4th of July!

This Saturday! Highlands Street Fair!

Bridget — Wed, 17 Jun 2009 17:36:30 +0000

Because we think that the annual Street Fair is too much fun too miss, HBBTs will be taking a break Saturday, June 20th, so that we all can participate in such a great community event! Great food, music, vendors and a wonderful opportunity to hang out at really one of the best summer festivals right in our own back yard. So join the fun at the Highlands Street Fair and we’ll see you there!

Bridge at the South East end of Sloans Lake

The ride this past Saturday, was once again a joyful sunny ride taking place this time in the Sloans lake area. It is a pleasure to see great remodels. The listing at 3100 Stuart Street, is just one of those complete makeovers. I was in the home the last time it was on the market and I remember it being narrow, run down, and only something that a person with great vision was going to tackle. Well it appears that these owners did just that! It is delighfully open and the kitchen is lavishly done.

Local Artist displays work for sale

After out tour of homes, we happened upon a display of unique, handmade stained glass art that is for sale at 3456 W. 31st Ave, Denver 80211. The artist, Chad Reidhead, kindly showed us more of his work. If you are looking for a great addition to your backyard landscaping that can be lit at night, stop by and talk to Chad about his work. We were very impressed!

As always, touring with HBBTs reminds me of how great it is to be on a bike and checking out my neighborhood. As a resident in the NW Denver area for over nine years now, I am still wonderfully surprised as I turn the corner and notice something new. And you really can only get that by walking or biking…biking just allows you to cover more ground.

I truly hope that you will joins us when we return. Next ride will be Saturday, June 27th. Don’t forget to sign up so we know to expect you! Thanks and have a great time at the Fair!
