The Wellshire & Southern Hills Neighborhood

Conveniently located in south central Denver, just one mile from the University of Denver, Southern Hills offers sprawling lots along wide winding streets. Most of the homes are ranch style homes built in the 60’s and 70’s. Southern Hills offers a quiet lifestyle and a strong sense of community. Neighbors live within walking distance to the newly renovated University Hills Shopping Center which offers shopping, restaurant and many other amenities. Residents also enjoy the popular Wellshire Public Golf Course which borders the neighborhood. There are many, many, reasons why the Southern Hills neighborhood is so appealing, but the biggest draw of all is the acclaimed Slavens K-8 Elementary School. Slavens is consistently ranked among the highest schools in the state. Written by Corcoran Perry & Co. Realtor Kristi Lucas
