Hilltop and Crestmoor are a mixture of 1920's, 1930's, 1940's, 1950's & 1960's homes, as well as new custom homes, where many older homes sell for lot value.
Hilltop has long been considered one of Denver's best neighborhoods. The predominant architecture is 1930's to 1960's ranches and two stories. Many have been extensively remodeled. Recently, many new homes have been built here as "in-fills". In other words, builders bought vacant lots and built brand new homes.
These newer homes have become ubiquitous. They range in price from $1M-$4M and are generally over 3000 square feet...plus finished basements. Smaller and older homes are here too. They generally are priced from $350,000 to $1.2M. Sizes range from 900 square foot homes built in the 1960's to larger, expansive ranches and more historical homes...both bungalows and gracious two-stories. There are even a few colonial styled homes here.
Hilltop has several Jewish synagogues and a Greek Orthodox Church. Many other churches are nearby. For many years Hilltop was known as the Doctor's Neighborhood because many physician moved in to be near the hospitals. Today, it is one of the most fashionable addresses in Denver. It is very professional in it's demographics with a high average-income per household.
The local private school, Grayland, is popular with families throughout the city. It educates students in grades K-8 and the tuition is in the low five figures. There is also a selection process.
Local Hilltop residents enjoy easy access to the nearby Cherry Creek Shopping Center, Rose Hospital and Medical Center, the VA hospital and the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center. There are several large, local parks and the Jewish Community Center nearby.
