by Rachel Hurley, Broker Associate, Kentwood City Properties Denver was booming after World War II and developers looking to the south built the neighborhoods of Wellshire and Southern Hills for upper-class families, favoring low-slung, well-built brick and frame ranch homes with very large yards and features considered luxurious for their day: double-car garages and family rooms on the main floor. Today, this neighborhood retains much of its original look and feel with beautifully maintained homes and elaborately landscaped lots on gently curving streets. Many of the homes have been lavishly expanded and updated by owners who don’t want to leave the neighborhood because of its quiet, winding streets and easy access to Downtown and interstate connections.  Retail corridors offer residents of these neighborhoods quick access to anything from new linens to fresh fish. Dining establishments from white tablecloth to drive-throughs contribute to the convenience. The nearby, 18-hole Wellshire Golf Course acts as a lush green buffer and a focal point for the neighborhood.
