Final opportunity to purchase gorgeous new homes in The Willows, a sought-after community in prime Johnson County location
If buying a new home in the Blue Valley School District is on your new year’s resolution list, The Willows offers plenty of stylish floor plans, amenities, a nature preserve, nearby walking and biking trails and accessibility to popular shopping, dining, and leisure destinations.
One of Johnson County’s most sought-after new homes communities, The Willows boasts three distinct neighborhoods — Willow Grove, Willow Pointe and The Preserve — lending it a unique energy and vibe. With The Willows nearing completion, community managers Amy Maher and Brenda Youness, real estate agents with WEICHERT, REALTORS® Welch & Company, point out the diverse inventory available, with 20 homes in various stages of construction, some available for move-in as early as spring.
“The Willows, located at 143rd and Pflumm, is truly a special setting, nestled in the award-winning Blue Valley School District,” Maher said. “Buyers love the community’s lifestyle with open-concept, well-designed floor plans complementing a seamless, everyday living experience also conducive to indoor and outdoor entertaining.”
Ideal location, striking floor plans, quality builders. Amy Wilson and her husband, Rob, lived for 21 years in south Overland Park where they raised their two children, only 10 minutes from the house they built in The Willows. Location was a key factor when they embarked on searching for a residence to enjoy the next chapter of their lives.
“There aren’t many options for new construction north of 143rd Street, let alone north of 159th Street,” Wilson said, adding it was important for the couple to remain in the Blue Valley School District. “We know the advantage a good school district has on a home’s value. Also, the opportunity to find an attractive home site with views was very appealing.”
Dinesh Gurung, a real estate agent with Platinum Realty, has helped three clients find their dream homes in The Willows.
“It’s a convenient location, situated close to acclaimed Blue Valley schools, golf courses, Heritage Park and the Johnson County trail system,” Gurung said. “A wide variety of floor plans from some of the area’s best-known and respected builders ensures buyers can find something to reflect their personal lifestyle. Amy and Brenda, who have been at The Willows since it debuted three years ago, are enthusiastic and communicative.”
