Greenfield is located in Centennial, with some of this neighborhood in the City of Aurora.    It is located off Arapahoe Road & Picadilly in the South part of the Metro Denver area.   It is located in Cherry Creek School District, which is just one reason this neighborhood is popular! I like to stay on top of the statistics for the community, and nice to review the numbers every month, or at least every quarter.   Most months there are just one or two sales.   For  June, there were two sales.   For this size of the neighborhood, we don't usually see many homes go up for sale in Greenfield or Greenfield Estates.    Here's what happened in Greenfield & Greenfield Estates in June 2025 -Total Sales - 2 homes sold priced at $635,000 and $735,000 Days on Market - 21 daysList Price to Sold Pri...

Tucked in the mountains, quiet and wide, five acres of peace where dreams can hide. A hidden gem where the tall pines sway, And whispers of wind keep worry away. Stars spill light on a velvet night, No city's noise, just calm and right. Build, explore, or simply be— This secret place sets your spirit free #77018635 aka 506 Kevin and lot #77000300 are next to one another.

The national food holiday may seem all about free donuts on the surface, but its roots date back to World War I. National Donut Day, first celebrated in 1938 in Chicago, honors the Salvation Army's Donut Lassies — a group of women volunteers who baked and delivered donuts to soldiers on the front lines during World War I.  According to the Salvation Army, the Donut Lassies are credited with popularizing donuts in the United States after troops returned from Europe.  The holiday is celebrated each year on the first Friday in June.   Krispy Kreme Swing by Krispy Kreme on Friday to snag a free donut of any flavor with no purchase necessary.  If one just isn't enough, the chain is also offering a dozen original glazed donuts for just $2 when you buy any dozen.  Dunkin' Dunkin' is bringing ...
