The Grand Junction core can be divided into three main parts. The first is between Interstate 70 and the Business 70 highway, west of Horizon Drive.

North of Highway 6 are many private homes for sale between 28 Road and 31 Road in the $300,000 to $500,000 range. There are older, well-established homes with three or more bedrooms. Some are prefabricated homes, and there are some permanently placed mobile homes.

The third collection of Grand Junction homes for sale is everything south of U.S. Highway 6 to the Colorado River. Most of the houses, townhouses, and trailer homes in this area are well established. This is an older part of the city but is still vibrant because of river access, multiple parks, and open spaces. There are a few undeveloped lots in the area to obtain 30 acres or more of land for around $300,000. The residential district is ready for you to build the custom home of your dreams.
