About Sheridan

Tucked just south of Denver between Englewood and Littleton, Sheridan is a small community spanning only about two square miles. With around 6,000 residents, it offers a quiet, neighborhood feel while keeping you connected to everything the metro area has to offer. Commuters have a straightforward drive up Santa Fe Drive or can easily catch the light rail at the Oxford Avenue station for a quick trip into downtown.

Daily life here centers around easy convenience and outdoor access. Most shopping and dining revolves around River Point at Sheridan, a large outdoor retail center with grocery stores, casual restaurants, and a movie theater. If you like spending time outside, trails along Bear Creek and the South Platte River run right by town, offering miles of paved paths for walking and biking. Between its local school district and central location, Sheridan makes for a practical, pocket-sized spot in the south metro area.
