Leawood’s best-kept secret: Leabrooke Town Manor

Located adjacent to beautiful Ironwoods Park off Kenneth Road and 148th Street, Leabrooke Town Manor is Leawood’s best-kept secret.

Enveloped by a beautiful pastoral setting and reminiscent of a quaint European village, the new residential community is one of Leawood’s most desirable, luxurious and peaceful maintenance-provided neighborhoods.

With prices ranging from $345,000 to $366,000, there is a design to meet a wide range of buyers from single professionals, to families with young children, empty-nesters and retirees.

The reverse 1½-story plan features a master bedroom and laundry on the main floor, and boasts a spacious lower level with two bedrooms, a full bathroom, roomy living area, and separate storage rooms.

The Mayfair II features an expanded egress well on the lower level windows, allowing for additional light, in turn, capturing a feeling of first floor living. This home also boasts an expanded garage allowing for extra storage.

The Coventry II is an expanded version of the Coventry floor plan that includes additional living space. This increase in area features a generous laundry room with a cubby, coat closet, and a large walk-in pantry. The lower level living area has an option to include a centered fireplace enveloped by a pair of large windows that look out into the expanded egress well, or the buyer can add a door which would lead to an optional courtyard.

These well-appointed, upscale, maintenance-provided townhomes include luxurious features and finishes that one would expect to find in a higher price point single-family home, but at a more affordable price.

Every home also includes a textured stucco and stone exterior, lush landscaped yard, either a private deck or patio, and an attached two-car garage with 8-foot insulated doors and Lift Master belt-driven openers.

Inside, all floor plans have master suites on the main level with granite or marble vanity tops in the bathroom, and prospective buyers will find 3-inch select white oak hardwood floors, custom cabinetry, iron spindles, designer carpet on the stairs, a quiet floor system, upgraded 12- by 24-inch tile in the bathrooms, stone or tile fireplaces, and beautiful wood treatments on the living room ceilings.

The state-of-the-art kitchen offers granite or quartz counter tops with a generous breakfast bar allowing for a secondary eating area, and stainless steel appliances.

According to Hummel, “The residents enjoy the relaxing lock-and-leave lifestyle here where all the routine exterior duties associated with typical homeownership are covered under the monthly homeowner association dues.”

The community’s annual homeowner dues include trash pick-up, the swimming pool, Sport Court with tennis and basketball, a stocked fishing pond, and the clubhouse with exercise facility.

The monthly homeowner dues include fire and property liability insurance covering the home, fixtures and equipment such as the HVAC; residents’ water and sewer; repair and replacement of roof and gutters; mowing, edging, trimming, fertilizing and weeding of lawns; pruning of all trees and bushes; snow removal; and annual start-up, winterization and repair of the lawn sprinkler system.

Residents of Leabrooke Town Manor enjoy being within five minutes of grocery stores, major retailers and several banks, in addition to 10 minutes from urgent care clinics, St. Luke’s South and Menorah Medical Center, and many major highways.

There are also many unique artistic and entertainment options at nearby Park Place, a charming retail and dining area; Town Center Plaza and Town Center Crossing, home to over 90 of Kansas City's finest stores and restaurants; and Prairie Fire, featuring the new Museum at Prairie Fire, Cinetopia movie theater, a specialty grocery store, restaurants, beauty services, entertainment and guided wetlands.

What’s more, golf enthusiasts are also just a few miles from Ironhorse Golf Club, one of the Kansas City area’s premier public courses.

For residents with children, Leabrooke Town Manor feeds into the Blue Valley School District including Prairie Star Elementary, Prairie Star Middle and Blue Valley High Schools.

“We really encourage prospective buyers who have an interest in a maintenance-provided lifestyle, as well as living in Leawood, to visit us quickly before the remaining homes are sold,” said Hummel. “This is most likely one of the last opportunities for people to buy a new construction residence in Leawood at this price point.”
