Leyden Rock
By Jessica Carcoana · Updated September 2026
Leyden Rock spreads across more than 1,000 acres off W 80th Avenue west of Indiana Street, with 1,439-plus homes finished between 2013 and 2022 by a roster that includes Village Homes, Remington, Ryland, D.R. Horton, Lennar and Tri Pointe; the community is built out, so every sale is a resale. Custom ranches, patio homes and two-story single-family homes sit on lots of roughly a tenth to a quarter acre, with about 60 percent of the land held as open space. The clubhouse and pool at 17685 W 83rd Drive serve as the metro district's gathering point, and 17 miles of trails tie into the 2.25-mile Barbara Gulch Trail and the 4.75-mile Leyden Creek Trail, both open to horses. Rocky Flats National Wildlife Refuge lies to the north, SH-93 is about 5 minutes west and US-36 about 10 minutes away.
