For prospective buyers looking to move quickly, four homes are currently move-in ready, with another three available by the first of the year.

Located at the corner of 133rd Street and Melrose Lane in Overland Park, Melrose Reserve Villas offers an incredible opportunity for newly constructed, luxury, maintenance provided living just minutes from all the metro area has to offer.

According to Teresa Acklin, marketing agent for Prime Development Land Company, the location and carefree, lock and leave lifestyle are among the biggest draws.

“So many people are looking for a more simplified lifestyle, and there's a shortage of wonderful, yet affordable maintenance-provided living communities located in the heart of Overland Park,” she said. “This is one of the reasons we have attracted so many buyers who love the fact that we are not only an intimate community, but we are close to all that the ‘big city’ has to offer.”

INVENTORY

Sales have been at such a brisk pace for this hidden residential oasis, encompassing only 50 freestanding singe family maintenance-provided villas, that only two lots remain for custom build jobs. For prospective buyers looking to move quickly, four homes are currently move-in ready, and another three will be available by the first of the year.

DESIGNS

Melrose Reserve offers a wide range of architectural diversity and homes that vary from 2,900 to 3,400 square feet featuring 3 to 4 bedrooms, main level master bedrooms, flex spaces, spacious kitchens, open floor plans and more. All exteriors will include four-sided stucco and three-car garages.

Inside, prospective buyers will find inviting entryways, soaring ceilings, beautiful crown molding, hardwood flooring, upgraded carpet, and lots of light throughout. Those who enjoy cooking will love the beautiful granite countertops, large islands, custom cabinets, and spacious walk-in pantries in the kitchens. Granite countertops can also be found in the bathrooms, as well as expansive closets and cabinet space, and all of the villas are integrated with an array of energy-efficient amenities that help keep home operating costs low.

Homeowner’s association dues cover lawn care, snow removal, trash and recycling, making it a true lock-and-leave lifestyle when traveling for work or vacationing.

Priced from the upper $400,000s to the $700,000s, these luxury villas are built by some of the Kansas City area’s most well-known and respected homebuilders including Prairie Homes, LDH Construction, Wynne Homes, RW Homes, KC-Calute Homes, and Gabriel Homes. In addition, several villas were built by JS Robinson and Starr Homes. The community is also open to outside builders with developer approval.

“A lot of our buyers have lived in the area for years and owned a large home,” Acklin said, “but they are ready to downsize into a smaller, new home with less maintenance requirements, without sacrificing the luxury features and amenities to which they have become accustomed. Melrose Reserve satisfies those needs and desires in a myriad of ways.”

AMENITIES

Melrose Reserve residents are within a stone’s throw of a variety of recreational opportunities including nearby parks, golf courses, convenient grocery and specialty stores, professional offices, fitness, and numerous dining and entertainment venues. Among them are Town Center Plaza, Town Center Crossing, and a variety of entertainment at Prairie Fire.

The community is also within a convenient commute to some of the area’s largest employers, the Country Club Plaza, the Crossroads Art District, Downtown Kansas City and KCI airport.

SCHOOLS

For residents with children, area schools include Cottonwood Point Elementary, Oxford Middle School, Blue Valley Northwest High School and St. Thomas Aquinas High School.

“If you’re looking for a boutique, luxury, maintenance-provided villa community to call home, don’t wait and lose out on this incredible opportunity,” said Acklin. “Melrose Reserve not only has a great deal to offer, but it is situated in a premier Overland Park location. So, we encourage anyone thinking of moving to come out and make a reservation before all of the homes and custom build lots are gone!”
