Map Based Search For Homes for sale in the Denver Neighborhood of Bonnie Brae
Located east of University Avenue between Mississippi and Exposition Avenues, Steele Street and University Boulevard, the Bonnie Brae neighborhood was developed in the 1920s by George W. Olinger, one of the city's most active businessmen during that decade. Olinger had been impressed by a subdivision he saw in Kansas City that was named Bonnie Brae, which means "pleasant hill" in Gaelic, so he borrowed the name in an effort to recreate the aura of peaceful Scottish village in Denver. The first homes were constructed between 1923 and 1924.
Today, Bonnie Brae's quaint commercial district is one of the neighborhood's most charming features. Within walking distance are favorite spots for pizza, spaghetti, fine dining, coffee, and homemade ice cream, as well as a branch library, a gas station, a liquor store with a great wine selection, two flower shops, two cleaners, gift shops, and more.
