Cherrywood Park is a subdivision featuring unique Thornton real estate that is about 10 miles north of Denver. When Thornton was first formed during the 1950's many segments of land were set aside for parks and wilderness sports allowing for all communities within the Thornton real estate area to continue to hold their value. There were multiple builders who put their mark on this community ensuring that many different styles of homes are available to choose from.

The subdivision of Cherrywood Park is governed under a homeowners association (HOA) that requires specific cares and upkeeps of the homes that fall under its jurisdiction. The result is that homes are all well-kept and tidy, and that there is a community spirit of neighborliness among the residents.

Thornton homes in Cherrywood Park were built during the 2000 era. These houses have modern lines, desirable interiors, and relatively new appliances. The Thornton real estate area is very close to Interstate 25 for an easy commute into all of the downtown Denver attractions, college or work offerings, and various shopping facilities.

While being directed by a HOA is not desirable to some people, others find the situation very satisfying. Very reasonable HOA fees are paid each year from the 208 single-family homes in the neighborhood. These fees are used for common area upkeep and insurances so that all family members can feel proud and safe within their surroundings.
