Norfolk Glen
By Jessica Carcoana · Updated September 2026
Norfolk Glen sits north of Colfax Avenue and east of Chambers Road, running up to the Sand Creek corridor in the Adams County part of Aurora. The first Norfolk Glen filing was platted in 1972, and the stock is split-level and two-story single-family homes with driveways on lots larger than the surrounding grid, plus townhomes near the arterials. Norfolk Glen Park serves the interior, and the east edge holds Star K Ranch with the Morrison Nature Center and a stretch of the 13-mile Sand Creek Regional Greenway. Hinkley High School is just across Colfax, I-225 is about a mile west, and I-70 is two miles north via Chambers Road. Aurora Public Schools assign Altura Elementary, East Middle and Hinkley High; verify by address.
