Castlewood
By Jessica Carcoana · Updated September 2026
Castlewood spans 16 recorded filings platted between the 1970s and 1990s, making it one of Centennial's largest subdivisions, with ranch, colonial, and craftsman homes rather than a single builder's product line. Cherry Creek School District zoning covers the area, feeding High Plains Elementary and Campus Middle before Cherry Creek High School. HOA coverage varies by filing, with some sections informally organized and others, like Castlewood Farm, unregistered with the city. Interstate 25 sits three minutes away and C-470 five, putting the Denver Tech Center, Park Meadows Mall, and Centennial Center Park within a short drive.
