The Character Trade-Offs
Authentic Character (Washington Park, Highlands): 1920s-1940s original homes. Period details, established trees, walkability. But: older systems need upgrades, renovations expensive, market saturated.
Character-Plus-Modern (Cory Merrill, RiNo): Renovation-friendly older homes being updated. Modern interiors, period exteriors. Good balance. But: construction noise, rapid change, less established.
New Luxury (Cherry Creek, South Pearl): Modern architecture, clean lines, smart home tech. Contemporary aesthetic. But: less historical character, higher price point, HOA fees.
✓ Best for Character Lovers: Washington Park (Tudor) or Highlands (Victorian/Bohemian)
