Grant Ranch was one of the last and largest pieces of Real Estate to be develope on the south side of Denver. Grant Ranch was founded by James B. Grant for the first time in 1878.

Searching for Littleton Homes For Sale, then Governor's Ranch should be your first stop. It is located between Wadsworth and Kipling from Bowles to Belleview.

This subdivision was originally developed by Sandford Home which then took a large portion and sold it to Centex Homes which you will find on the southern side. The big draw to purchase a Littleton Home in Governor's Ranch is the feel of the neighborhood. It becomes vary obvious it was a master plan community which is surround by prime retail real estate. The Sanford Homes are very Tradition and seems to have a big following then the more contemporary Centex floor plans. However, being a builder I really don't find that much difference in the quality of material and construction.
