Once a little known area, Sunnyside has officially become one of Denver’s hottest neighborhoods. Located next to LoHi and Berkeley and just minutes from downtown, it’s no wonder that Sunnyside is seeing huge interest right now.
The average cost of homes for sale Sunnyside is currently $466,433, a dramatic increase over previous years. We expect this to continue to go up over the next few years, most likely at a higher rate than surrounding areas.
Sunnyside has always been a great location, but its lack of town center put it at a disadvantage over popular neighboring areas like The Highlands and Berkeley. This all changed recently due to major commercial reinvestment. Zuni St & 44th is quickly becoming an established town center with new popular restaurants and shops like Bacon Social, Sunny’s and Cheese+Provisions. 38th Ave and Lipan St is not too shabby either, with several popular breweries, Chubby’s original location and several other new businesses. 
Sunnyside’s reinvestment is not just in commercial buildings. Over the next 12-18 months, there will be countless new construction duplex homes for sale in Sunnyside. Similar to most NW Denver neighborhoods, nearly all of these new homes are being funded by investors. Investors are drawn to Sunnyside for quite a few reasons. First, it has more appealing zoning than nearby neighborhoods as many Sunnyside lots are zoned for duplex homes. The cost of buying a lot is also lower than neighboring LoHi, Berkeley, and The Highlands. Add in great views for rooftop decks, proximity to downtown and a new light rail station coming later this year, Sunnyside becomes hard to beat.
While Sunnyside is no longer a secret, it’s still not too late to become part of its future. Whether you are considering a real estate investment or making Sunnyside your home, it’s hard to go wrong.
