The Willows showcases spacious and gracious main level living in Willow Pointe, a maintenance-provided neighborhood
What drew Chuck and Myrna Williams to The Willows in south Johnson County was a winning combination of quality, reputation, and main-level living — all must-haves when the empty nester couple started their home search.
“We loved the community for its high standards and carefully chosen builders,” Chuck Williams said.
Beyond the community’s builders and the integrity of the homes, The Willows’ up-and-coming maintenance-provided neighborhood, Willow Pointe, caught their eye.
“We were specifically interested in a new-build home offering a main floor primary bedroom and suite,” Chuck Williams said. “Willow Pointe fulfilled our needs.”
ReeceNichols real estate agent Brent Sledd, a 39-year-industry veteran, keeps The Willows at the top of his list of options for clients for many of the reasons the Williams were attracted to the community. “I like the prime location — The Willows is the closest-in community to get a new home in this coveted part of Johnson County, which also happens to be in the Blue Valley School District,” he said. “There are so many pretty lots with greenspace and cul-de-sacs that give it a nice ambience. Covenant and Rodrock have collaborated to create a beautiful and desirable community that offers a variety of floor plans for every buyer — young families, growing families, and empty nesters.”
Sledd also likes the hand-selected roster of some of the area’s most renowned builders available to buyers, including Rodrock Homes, Bickimer Homes, Covenant Custom Homes, James Engle Custom Homes LLC, and New Mark Homes.
“Many of my clients have built with most of The Willows’ builders numerous times,” he said. “Each builder has a solid process and approach and outstanding warranty departments that get things done when needed.
“I always emphasize the importance keeping resale in mind,” he said. “The Willows has proven to be a good investment for today’s buyer.”
Willow Pointe: Gracious private villas from the low $600,000s to $750,000. Weichert Realtors Welch & Company real estate agent and The Willows community manager Amy Maher has boundless enthusiasm for this maintenance-provided neighborhood, primarily because the “lock-and-leave” lifestyle is priority with so many buyers.
“Homeowners like Chuck and Myrna are ready to leave the responsibilities of lawn work and snow shoveling behind,” she said. “Willow Pointe simplifies homeownership, and monthly homes association dues are reasonable. This type of detached home situated in an extraordinary neighborhood like The Willows is a rarity in south Johnson County.”
Sledd points out the well-curated collection of floor plans that each builder brings to Willow Pointe, which gives discerning buyers many choices.
“There are some gorgeous ranch styles featuring three bedrooms on the main floor, including the primary suite,” he said. “It’s a much more difficult layout to find and buyers wanting true one-level living will love to see these floor plans.”
Partial to The Kylee by New Mark Homes, the Williams selected the reverse 1.5-story home with four bedrooms and three baths for multiple reasons, including ceiling heights throughout, an open, seamless flow, and the home site itself.
“We’ve been extremely pleased with our decision to build in The Willows,” Chuck Williams said. “It’s beyond our expectations.”
Maher notes the demand for luxury villa living in south Johnson County ensures that Willow Pointe home sites will quickly disappear.
“This isn’t a cookie-cutter neighborhood where homes look alike but is a unique maintenance-provided environment sure to resonant with villa seekers,” Maher said. “I encourage prospective buyers to visit our Willow Grove model homes and discover available opportunities before they’re gone.”
There are many stunning floor plans for buyers wanting to right-size from a traditional single-family residence. Buyers can either build or purchase a home in process — currently four villas are under construction and five will begin this fall. The neighborhood also boasts home sites backing up to picturesque green spaces.
“Homeowners can find a place that embraces their life and style, enjoy the community amenities, and be near to everything Johnson County offers,” Maher said. “Benefits of living in this maintenance-provided neighborhood in The Willows are many.”
