Chatfield East
By Jessica Carcoana · Updated September 2026
Chatfield East is unincorporated Jefferson County with a Littleton address, 98 custom ranch and two story homes built between 1979 and 1989 on three to four acre parcels, running 3,000 to 5,500 square feet with garages that reach six bays. Properties draw on wells and septic systems rather than municipal service, which is what keeps the lot sizes intact this close to the suburban edge. Chatfield State Park covers 3,895 acres just south and west, with a 1,423 acre reservoir fed by the South Platte River, and Denver Botanic Gardens Chatfield Farms is the other open ground nearby. West Chatfield Avenue and South Wadsworth Boulevard handle local traffic, with C-470 roughly ten minutes out.
