Three Chapman Farms communities ready for summer

The Chapman Farms communities of Lakeside, Greenbriar and The Shores, all exclusively built by Summit Custom Homes, are gearing up for summer.

The communities, at Missouri 7 highway and Colbern Road in Lee’s Summit, just announced the completion of a trail system around the lake they share and a new playground. In addition, the community pool opens Memorial Day weekend.

These new amenities, along with the communities’ proximity to Blue Springs Lake, Lake Jacomo, Fleming Park, recreational facilities, renowned sports facilities, golf courses, nature parks and ball parks make them a prime location for families who want to live near a broad range of fun activities.

“These communities are all perfect for families, and with the addition of these new amenities and the pool opening up, now is a great time for people to come see it ‘in action’,” said on-site agent Jill Murphy. “I’m sure they’ll find that they love it.”

In Lakeside at Chapman Farms, Summit has three models and seven available homes. Three are completed, Preston Ridge V, Preston Ridge IV and Cotton Creek plans; and four are in various stages of the building process, including Sheffield, Sterling, Preston Ridge V and Windsor Hills plans, so there is something for every buyer.
