Urban Living with Suburban Charm

Englewood, Colorado, traces its roots back to 1858, when gold was discovered along the South Platte River by a group of prospectors. This led to the establishment of a settlement called Orchard Place, which later evolved into Englewood. The arrival of the Denver and Rio Grande Railroad in the late 19th century spurred economic growth, transforming Englewood into a thriving hub for trade and transportation.

Incorporated as a city in 1903, Englewood became a prominent industrial and residential area. Over the years, the city expanded, welcoming businesses, schools, and cultural landmarks that shaped its vibrant identity. Englewood’s historic Cherrelyn Horsecar, a unique transportation system that operated from the 1890s to the early 1900s, remains a symbol of its rich heritage.

Today, Englewood blends its historic roots with modern development, offering residents a mix of suburban charm and urban amenities. Its central location and strong community spirit continue to make it a desirable place to live and work in the Denver metro area.
