Foxfield Colorado Homes & Lifestyle
Foxfield is one of the smallest incorporated towns in the Denver metro — just 1.25 square miles, with 277 homes and roughly 768 residents as of the 2020 Census. It incorporated in 1994, largely to protect its rural character as Aurora and Centennial grew up around it.
A small town intentionally staying small
Foxfield isn’t a suburb that simply hasn’t grown yet — staying low-density is part of the town’s actual planning philosophy. Much of the community was built around rural-estate lots, with town planning built around roughly one home per 2.5 acres in many areas. That’s a big part of why Foxfield feels so different from its neighbors, even though the border with Aurora and Centennial can be hard to spot on a map.
Good to Know:
An 80016 mailing address doesn’t necessarily mean Foxfield — or Aurora, or Centennial. All three share that ZIP code, so the ZIP alone won’t tell you which town a property is actually in. If that distinction matters to you (schools, taxes, town services), it’s worth confirming before you fall in love with a listing.

A unique find-what makes it special
- Minimum 2-acre lots mean genuine space and privacy — rare this close to the DTC
- Horse property and equestrian trails woven directly into the town
- Unobstructed mountain views from many properties (Pikes Peak to Longs Peak on a clear day)
- Cherry Creek School District, one of the most sought-after in the metro
- Small-town character: annual Fourth of July parade, town-wide picnic, resident-run newsletter
- Traffic gates, not a gated community. Foxfield uses traffic-control gates to discourage cut-through traffic — a town infrastructure decision, not a private HOA amenity.
- Equestrian character, by design.** The town’s municipal code specifically recognizes pedestrian and equestrian trail easements, reflecting its rural-estate roots.
Other things to consider
- Every home is on well and septic, not city water and sewer.
- Very limited inventory — Foxfield rarely has more than a handful of homes on the market at once
- Entry price point is high; this isn’t a starter-home market
- No public transit within the town itself; a car is a must
- Occasional aircraft noise from nearby Centennial Airport
- Acreage means more property upkeep — irrigation, fencing, outbuildings — than a standard suburban lot
Neighborhoods & Areas Worth Exploring
Foxfield doesn’t break into the tidy subdivision map most cities do — it’s really a handful of estate pockets around a shared rural spine. Three worth knowing:
Chenango — One of the more established pockets in town, running along Parker Road. Custom homes on acreage with some of the best mountain visibility in Foxfield, and easy access to the Foxfield Village Center for day-to-day errands.
Antelope — A horse-friendly enclave known for its network of walking and bridle trails winding through the neighborhood. A strong fit for buyers who want the equestrian lifestyle built into daily life, not just a big backyard.
Norfolk / McDanal Open Space corridor — Homes near the town’s protected open space and the connecting bike and pedestrian trail. This is the pocket for buyers who want walkable access to trails and the Cherry Creek Regional Drainage
