Impeccable homes, accessible prices await in southern Johnson County
A pastoral setting in the rapidly growing Spring Hill School District is home to Boulder Hills, a new residential community located north of 175th Street in Olathe.
The picturesque surroundings are an ideal backdrop for the homes at Boulder Hills. A team of celebrated builders, including James Engle Custom Homes, Roeser Homes, Pauli Homes and New Mark Homes, gives prospective buyers a rare opportunity to work with builders known for their impeccable, custom-built homes at a more accessible price point. Homes in Boulder Hills are priced from $425,000 to $600,000.
Boulder Hills’ first and second plats are underway, giving prospective buyers an exciting selection of inventory homes that include nine move-in ready homes. Each of the community’s four builders features a furnished model home, which are currently open to view by appointment only. The models showcase two two-story floor plans and two 1 ½-story floor plans, a beautiful representation of the wide variety of plans available.
Although the homes at Boulder Hills reflect a variety of floor plans, the quality-minded reputations of each builder result in several common features that add both style and functionality to each home. Open concept living creates an uninterrupted flow from great rooms to kitchens to dining areas. Main levels feature hardwood flooring, while large bathrooms include free-standing bathtubs. And each home’s quality construction is showered in abundant natural light, thanks to large windows throughout.
“All of our builders do a lot of high-end finishing and have a stellar reputation for quality,” says Rob Lacy, who markets Boulder Hills with Sara Powell-Moody and Mike Forsyth for Weichert, Realtors Welch & Company. “They’re builders of quality who know how to build elegant homes that are on the leading edge of industry trends and what buyers want.”
Prospective buyers who prefer to work with a builder on a custom home can select from flat, daylight and walkout homesites priced from $65,000 to $119,000. Wooded walkout homesites are also available, offering up-close views to Boulder Hills’ idyllic terrain.
There’s yet another opportunity to purchase within the Boulder Hills community. The ease and convenience of maintenance-provided living will be available at the Enclave at Boulder Hills. The neighborhood is scheduled to break ground this year, with new home inventory available beginning in 2021 and occupancy expected in summer of 2021.
The Enclave at Boulder Hills will be home to 90 detached villas, all of which offer main-floor living within reverse floor plans. Just as quality is paramount in Boulder Hills, that commitment to building beautiful, functional homes will be the top priority in the Enclave at Boulder Hills. All of the community’s current builders will be able to build in the new neighborhood, ensuring a consistent and enduring aesthetic throughout the entire community.
Homesite reservations are now available in the Enclave at Boulder Hills, and prospective buyers are encouraged to reach out to the marketing team for more information and to get first access to a prime selection of homesites. Homes in the Enclave at Boulder Hills are priced from the low $400,000s.
Just as you need a strong foundation to support your home, a residential community needs an equally strong foundation on which to thrive. At Boulder Hills, that solid support comes from developer GRATA Development, owned by the Jon Burrell family. Not only does GRATA Development bring a comforting sense of stability to Boulder Hills; they’re also a demonstrated community partner, invested in making the surrounding area the best place to live. One example? GRATA Development donated over 17 acres of land within the Boulder Hills community to the Spring Hill District. That land is now home to the newly built Timber Sage Elementary School, an important part of this vibrant school system that also gives Boulder Hills residents enviable proximity to the school.
“Families can watch their kids walk to and from school, and also watch them play at recess,” says Powell-Moody
Speaking of playing and recess, there’s no shortage of places to have fun throughout Boulder Hills. An extensive amenities package, including a zero-entry pool, a clubhouse and pavilion with a fireplace and outdoor kitchen, a putting green and a pickleball court, is nearing completion and scheduled to open this summer.
Boulder Hills is also close to Heritage Park, a popular destination for people of all ages thanks to a wide range of activities. The park includes picnic shelters, a 40-acre lake, an off-leash dog play area, an 18-hole disc golf course, exercise equipment and a championship golf course, complete with driving range — and that’s just the start!
Boulder Hills’ prime Olathe location is also within close proximity to area highways, putting destinations like Overland Park and Leawood within a quick drive.
