The Littleton Market

A lifestyle-driven south-metro city
with flat-to-soft medians and high demand.

Redfin describes the Littleton housing market as very competitive. In February 2026, the median sale price was about $615,000, down 0.28 percent year over year, and homes sold in around 21 days on average compared with 24 days a year earlier.

The median sale price per square foot was about $286, up 1.6 percent year over year. There were 156 homes sold in February 2026, down from 175 a year earlier. Sub-markets vary widely: South Littleton's recent medians have shown double-digit annual percentage drops in some snapshots (mid-$400Ks to mid-$500Ks) with ~$294 $/sq ft and ~42-day timelines, while Central Littleton's medians have surged with some periods showing 18 to 70 percent year-over-year increases and $/sq ft near $379.

A 2026 Littleton housing forecast notes that strong local demand from move-up buyers, downsizers, and Denver commuters plus limited infill construction support steady long-term appreciation rather than big swings.
