In 2004, Cherry Creek Country Club on East Iliff at South Yosemite came out of the ground as a premium golf-course community designed for an urban infill site — a risky proposition at a moment when Colorado was long on links and had an overcharged luxury home market.
Now the club is a coveted reserve thatap prized not only for its swanky clubhouse and Jack Nicklaus course, but for its easy access to downtown, Cherry Creek and the Denver Tech Center, in a year when homebuyers are increasingly focused on commuting time.
“Itap the only golf club with this centrality in Denver,” says Rike Palese of ReMax Professionals, who along with his associate Lauren Immel has not one, but two luxurious, low-maintenance three-bedroom homes to show you in the club on Sunday, March 3, steps from each other and a five-minute stroll from the clubhouse and separate pool-fitness amenity.
Both homes are in the community’s Village enclave of luxury low-maintenance homes and show the club’s Tudor styling in lavish stone under tile roofs.
One, at 8630 E. Wesley Drive, is a main-floor-master plan, over 3,200 square feet including dual studies and four baths; the other, at 8538 Wesley, is sized at over 3,400 feet on an end-site that affords an upstairs master with private deck and added sun from the south and west sides.
Each is at $1,050,000.
“Cherry Creek Country Club is all about lifestyle,” says Immel, who is a member of the club and says she has formed exceptionally close relationships with neighbors. “People travel together; thatap how close it is.”
Palese points out the 24-hour gated security and Cherry Creek Schools, and notes that golf real estate is becoming even more of a rarity in Denver, as one Denver course disappears to development.
Both of these homes have a bright, open look and have been updated with new designer kitchens and baths — something thatap important to buyers inclined to reach for the new look they see from builders.
The homes are open noon to 3 p.m.; stop at the guard gate off Iliff on Yosemite for a pass.
