The Mill at Riverstone is blooming with brilliant abodes
Spring is stepping out with a flourish of color and fun at The Mill at Riverstone! There’s truly no better time to visit this fantastic Rodrock Development, as some of the area’s top builders have been hard at work putting the finishing touches on an array of family-favorite floor plans. Ideally situated at 183rd and Caenen (one street west of Quivira), Riverstone offers beautiful home sites with quiet country feel and city proximity.
Four beautifully appointed model homes are ready to tour by the likes of James Engle Custom Homes, Hilmann Home Building, BCI-Bowen Custom Homes, and K.C. Builders & Design. And a number of their homes are move-in ready or close therein.
“We have homes that will appeal to everyone: 2 story, 1.5 story, and reverse 1.5 story,” says community manager Leslie Young. “And with a dozen spec homes up and available at various stages of finish, we can find families their perfect home just in time for summer fun!”
Among the move-in ready homes are James Engle’s Sarasota Reverse, which is a spacious, open plan with 4 bedrooms, 4.5 baths, master on the main level, and a beautifully finished walk-up lower level with full bar, 2 bedrooms, and more. The builder’s 1.5-story Emery II is also a must-see, with 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, fun lofted area, and fabulous covered patio.
Meanwhile, the perennially popular Chesapeake II.1 UP by Hilmann Home Building offers a kitchen fabulously outfitted with a large island, granite counters, huge walk-in pantry and prep area, and handy door between the pantry and garage for grocery drop-off. The master suite opens to the covered porch, while the master bath has a Euro-style walk-in shower, soaker tub, double granite vanities, and large closet.
The Chesapeake II.1 Reverse boasts a huge family room, anchored by an impressive fireplace flanked by bookcases, and a fully equipped bar with wine fridge and storage, making entertaining effortless.
On a coveted cul-de-sac lot sits the outstanding 1.5-story Windermere Reverse by BCI-Bowen Custom Homes, which won 1st place in Distinctive Plan & Design at the Parade of Homes. An impressive two-story entry opens up to a beamed Great Room with stone fireplace and gleaming hardwoods. The gourmet kitchen offers amazing cabinetry, sensational pantry with second oven, and lots of storage, while the gracious master suite has generously sized “his” and “her” closets.
Also available is the popular reverse Chalet XP Reverse by K.C. Builders & Design. From its impressive barrel-rolled entry to the chef’s kitchen with granite island, dining area, and pantry with dual access, this home is stunning. The back staircase leads to large family room in the lower level complete with full bar, media room, and two generously sized bedrooms with bath.
This trusted builder is also offering the Sequoia II and Geneva. Both homes boast beautiful gourmet kitchens, with custom enameled cabinets, large pantry, huge island and more.
“We also have walkout, daylight, and level home sites and some large, private cul-de-sac lots available as well,” says community manager Craig Hauser. “We truly are fantastically situated with great access to 69 and 169 highways so it doesn’t take long to get around the city at all. And we’re just minutes away from Heritage Park and the Overland Park Arboretum with all of their wonderful activities for the entire family.”
Forty-one lots are available in Riverstone’s first phase, and varied home plans help ensure the community is anything but cookie cutter, with prices ranging from the low $500,000’s. Family-friendly amenities are planned for the second phase.
Another huge benefit is that Riverstone falls within the award-winning Blue Valley School District, feeding into Wolf Springs Elementary, Aubrey Bend Middle, and BVSW High School.
As well, the groundbreaking Rodrock Moms’ Council is gearing up within the community. An array of family-friendly activities are planned thanks to the Council, including spring egg hunts, Memorial Day pool-opening parties, July 4th bike-a-thons, and outdoor movie nights. In December, families adore the holiday hayride and caroling event, which features huge Belgian draft horses pulling wagons down decorated streets.
There’s so much to look forward to throughout all the seasons in this spectacular neighborhood, but spring and summer is when it shines brightest. Come and see why so many families proudly call Riverstone home.
