Conifer Co Real Estate

Homes in Conifer Co

Conifer Real Estate, Colorado. Known in the 1860's as Bradford Junction, Conifer is familiar today to locals as the place where the "Yellow Barn" stands. Bradford Junction was a stop on the stagecoach road to South Park, and a well was dug there in 1864. The community started where Gill's Gulch flows into North Turkey Creek. A few buildings were erected, including a tavern, rest house, and general store. The name Bradford Junction was changed to Conifer Junction in the 1890s, and the community center was moved to the modern Safeway locale. In the 1930s the name was changed simply to Conifer, and that same year the oldest general store in the area burned down. The area was primarily a cattle ranching area, and there is still some ranching in southern parts of the community. The area's students were served by Evergreen High School until 1996, when Conifer High School was built. Until recently, mostly local businesses were "mom and pop" stores, such as Aspen Park Drug. But within the last year construction on a new King Soopers was completed, along with the completion of a Wendy's, QDoba, and a Quiznos. Population - 8,275
