Cider Mill Ridge offers options for every buyer

As the Fall Parade of Homes comes to an end Sunday, Fivestar Lifestyles, the Better Homes and Garden Real Estate Kansas City Homes marketing team and builders Ashlar Homes, SAB Homes and Double Eagle Builders thank you for coming by and seeing what Cider Mill Ridge has to offer.

Visitors found a wide variety of floor plans and styles which include ranches, reverse ranches, 11/2-story and two-story designs that feature extensive interior finishes such as granite counter tops, hardwood floors, kitchen islands, walk-in pantries, custom cabinets, architectural arches and extensive wood trim.

Another plus was the addition of Chris Powell and his team at Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Kansas City Homes to be the sole marketer of Cider Mill Ridge.

“It is important to have a single marketing team in order to fully inform the buyer of all their choices and you have a lot of choices at Cider Mill Ridge,” said Scott Bamesberger, owner of SAB Homes.

Cider Mill Ridge continues to make all the right changes to attract everyone from new families looking for schools to empty-nesters looking to enjoy their retirement years with walking trails, golf and a new pool opening next season, all an easy walk or golf cart drive away.

Cider Mill Ridge is in the highly sought-after Park Hill School District. More importantly, elementary-aged children attend Graden Elementary School, a nationally recognized Blue Ribbon School, a “Leader in Me School” and recipient of the Missouri Gold Star School Award. After Graden Elementary, students attend Plaza 6th Grade Center, Lakeview Middle School and Park Hill South High School.

Another benefit for new residents of Cider Mill Ridge is proximity to the best golf in the Northland. Residents can become a member of The National Golf Club of Kansas City or its sister course, The National II. Both offer challenging layouts and beautiful, well manicured fairways. All the amenities are a short golf cart drive away. Of course if golf is not your game, come as a social member and enjoy the pool, health club, tennis and many casual dining venues.

If The National’s amenities are not enough, you may walk or run along-side the Missouri River while visiting English Landing Park or become one with nature while walking or running in Parkville’s very own Nature Sanctuary, also within minutes of Cider Mill Ridge.

Another convenience within a five-minute drive is Parkville Commons, a 250,000-square-foot retail center, whose shops offer basic necessities. Residents can buy their groceries at Price Chopper, pick up dry cleaning at Pride Cleaners, find their everyday needs at Walgreen’s and dine at Nick-n-Jake’s, Rusty Horse Tavern, Jimmy John’s, Sakae Sushi and Pizza Hut. It is also home to the metropolitan area’s most active and vibrant health and wellness center, the Platte County Community Center/YMCA.

Homeowners also enjoy quick and easy access to The Legends at Village West, Zona Rosa, downtown Kansas City, Kansas City International Airport and a number of other destinations within 15 minutes of Cider Mill Ridge.

Home prices range from the mid $200,000s to the upper $300,000s, a range that is unprecedented for a resort-style community and quality-built homes. Cider Mill Ridge builders have won awards during every Parade of Homes in which they were entered.

Available home sites in Cider Mill Ridge include numerous walkout and daylight locations with views of the golf course, neighborhood park or valley and a short walk or golf cart drive to the community pool.

With its award-winning designs, convenient location, top schools, charming small-town feel, included amenities and unparalleled value, Cider Mill Ridge at The National has become the go-to place for residents of all needs in the Northland.
