"A nice, quiet subdivision close to many things"

When I first saw the development of Rockinghorse going up, I was kind of sad. They tore out a few older homes and one was where one of my childhood friends lived on some property. So needless to say, I wasn't too thrilled with the new development. Since that time, I've found that I really like the new area a lot more than I ever imagined I would. It's a very clean and neat neighborhood and the houses are just lovely. Although most are unique there are some that exhibit a similar layout. It's pricey to live here, as most of the homes go for about 1/2 million. The area isn't crowded yet, but I have a feeling that more homes will be built soon on the western side of the area. I bet the homes on the top of the hill have a great view of Pikes Peak.

Although there are no businesses in the neighborhood, the people living here have the unique advantage of being equally close to both Parker and Centennial. The kids who live here go to Douglas County Schools, which are highly rated and the high school is Chaparral. Overall I really like this area, but think that for the price, there may be better options with more land.
Pros
  • great homes
  • close to both Parker and Centennial
  • very neat and clean looking
Cons
  • expensive homes
