Idyllic community offers unmatched variety of homesites, views

Choosing a homesite is an important decision, given that it’s the backdrop for a quality-built, carefully appointed home. Within the idyllic surroundings of Cottonwood Canyon, prospective homeowners can choose from several options that culminate in an enviable selection not found in other Kansas City area new home communities.

One of the things that immediately draws prospective homeowners to Cottonwood Canyon is the views, a result of thoughtful landscaping, picturesque terrain and the scenic Canyon Farms Golf Club, which winds through the neighborhood. The community’s available homesites take full advantage of these views in different ways, giving buyers the chance to not only build their dream home, but also bask in their dream view. Cottonwood Canyon homesites are available in three groups:

Backing to the lake – 3 lots left

Three walkout homesites each back to Cottonwood Canyon’s neighborhood lake. Homes built on these homesites will enjoy eastern exposures from the back of the home, the ideal place to enjoy a sunrise and the afternoon shade on a deck and patio. Prices start at $139,000.

Fairways as far as the eye can see – 3 lots left

For prospective homeowners who prefer views of Canyon Farms Golf Club, three walkout homesites are available that each offer views overlooking multiple golf fairways, lush scenery that complements any home style. Prices start as low as $139,000.

Next to nature – 5 walkout lots available

Nature is so much more than an afterthought at Cottonwood Canyon. The neighborhood was carefully designed to take full advantage of the rolling Johnson County terrain that’s adorned with native grasses and wildflowers. For prospective homeowners eager to enjoy this natural splendor, five walkout homesites are available with views that overlook rock walls, golf greens and the neighborhood’s natural terrain. Each of the homesites will offer beautiful eastern exposures from the back of the homes. Lots backing to green space start at $89,000.

Once prospective homeowners select the perfect homesite, they can 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 and Prime Homes, to create a custom-built residence from an incredible variety of floor plans.

The tranquility created by Cottonwood Canyon’s coveted location extends to the community’s lifestyle. Homeowners enjoy provided maintenance and low homeowner association dues ($150/month) that include snow removal, trash and lawn maintenance. Future development will include a swimming pool and neighborhood gathering area, completing the vacation-like retreat that’s just minutes from Interstate 435 and the new Lenexa Civic Center.

Angie Ripley, who markets Cottonwood Canyon with Nita Criswell and Sue Edwards, said the community’s views and lifestyle have been a big draw for homeowners seeking an escape from the stress and demands of daily life.

“We’ve 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,” she said. “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’re offering at Cottonwood Canyon.”
