Channel your Home Show inspiration into your dream home

Spring is the perfect time to think about all things home. New furniture? New paint? A more in-depth remodel? There’s no better place to get ideas, inspiration and resources than at this weekend’s Greater Kansas City Home Show, a favorite annual tradition. The bigger question, however, is where to showcase your Home Show findings once you’ve made the rounds of booths and demonstrations. Why not take a blank slate approach and create the home of your dreams at Cottonwood Canyon?

You’ve probably heard the beloved real estate adage, “location, location, location.” It’s one that exemplifies Cottonwood Canyon, a lush retreat bursting with wildflowers and trees yet is within minutes of several major Kansas City highways. Homes at Cottonwood Canyon are woven among 300 picturesque rolling acres, a topography that gives homeowners some of the most exemplary and eye-catching views in the Kansas City area.

Cottonwood Canyon shares its rolling terrain with Canyon Farms Golf Club, which rivals other local golf courses in both skill level and breathtaking vistas dotted with bluffs, streams and native grasses. For golf enthusiasts, a round of golf is a short stroll away. And for those who prefer other recreational pursuits, the golf course simply adds to the surrounding beauty.

Spring is the ideal season to see Cottonwood Canyon in bloom, but it’s also one of the busiest times at the community. Get ahead of the spring rush and reserve one of 19 available homesites, including several premier golf and lake locations.

From there, prospective homeowners can choose to work with any of the builders on Cottonwood Canyon’s celebrated building team, including Starr Homes, Don Julian Builders, B.L. Rieke Custom Homes, Brown Midwest Homes, Curtis Befort Custom Homes and Prime Homes. A number of speculative homes are in various stages of construction, allowing homeowners the flexibility to accommodate a range of move-in timelines. Home prices vary from $450,000 to over $1 million.

To further extend the idyllic feeling of the community, Cottonwood Canyon is maintenance-provided and offers low homeowner association dues ($150 a month) that include snow removal, trash and lawn maintenance. Future development will include a pool and neighborhood gathering area, completing the vacation-like retreat that’s just minutes from Interstate 435 and the new Lenexa Civic Center.

“We have been so successful here at Cottonwood Canyon because the neighborhood is very attractive to buyers looking beyond a huge amount of square footage, for a relaxing, tranquil, beautiful way of life,” said Angie Ripley, who markets Cottonwood Canyon with Nita Criswell. “Consider for a moment your all-time favorite vacation spot. What if you could have that relaxed, calm and balanced feeling every day, here in Kansas City, close to work, family and friends? This is what we are offering at Cottonwood Canyon.”
