Developed by Prime Development, Prairie Canyon is an exclusive, maintenance-provided neighborhood created for homeowners who value luxury,

convenience, and a strong connection to nature. Located just west of K-7 Highway and south of College Boulevard, the community offers a peaceful residential setting while remaining close to premier shopping, dining, and entertainment along the College Boulevard and K-10 corridor.

With the launch of Phase II, Prairie Canyon now offers additional opportunities to build in a setting defined by natural surroundings.

Importantly, homesites remain available in Phase I as well, giving buyers a variety of options across multiple phases.

In total, Prairie Canyon will include 175 freestanding homesites, many offering wooded backdrops, scenic vistas, and a sense of openness rarely found in new construction. Phase I features 44 generously sized lots averaging approximately 70 feet wide—well suited for today’s modern floor plans and three-car garages. Nearly half of those lots are located on cul-de-sacs, reinforcing the neighborhood’s quiet, residential character.

Homes are being crafted by a distinguished group of Kansas City builders, including C&M Builders, Crestwood Custom

Homes, Hilmann Homes, JFE Construction, Pauli Homes and Roeser Homes. Each is known for thoughtful design, quality craftsmanship, and attention to detail. Several speculative homes are currently underway, while buyers who prefer a custom experience can still select premium homesites and design a home tailored to their lifestyle.

With furnished models now open and Phase II lots officially released, this is an ideal time to experience Prairie Canyon firsthand. Models are open from noon to 5pm daily or by appointment.

Visit our website to browse floor plans, explore photo galleries, and view our available building sites. OVER 50 YEARS OF BEAUTY, VALUE AND INTEGRITY

A New Chapter in Elevated Living

Tucked within one of the region’s most sought-after gated communities, the Sechrest at Loch Lloyd represents the next evolution of luxury residential living. Thoughtfully planned and intentionally limited, this new neighborhood offers a rare opportunity to build a custom home in a setting where privacy, natural beauty, and connection come together seamlessly.

The Sechrest is designed for those who value both refinement and lifestyle. Meandering streets, preserved green space, and trail connections create a neighborhood that feels established from the moment you arrive, yet entirely fresh in its vision. Each homesite offers flexibility for architectural expression while maintaining a cohesive sense of place, allowing homeowners to create a home that feels personal, timeless, and enduring.

Life at The Sechrest extends well beyond the front door. Residents enjoy the security and exclusivity of a gated community paired with proximity to the vibrant social fabric that defines life at Loch Lloyd Country Club. Membership at the Club unlocks access to championship golf, resort-style amenities, racquet sports, dining, wellness offerings, and a robust calendar of events, creating an unmatched balance of leisure and engagement for those who choose to participate. All of this is set just minutes from everyday conveniences and a short drive from downtown Kansas City.

What truly sets The Sechrest apart is its sense of opportunity. With a limited number of premier homesites and a curated group of preferred builders, buyers have the flexibility to build a custom home or select from various

artfully crafted floor plans that meet their unique needs. This neighborhood is positioned for those ready to invest in both a home and a lifestyle. It’s a place where families grow; relationships are built, and everyday moments feel elevated.

The Sechrest at Loch Lloyd isn’t simply a new development; it’s an invitation. An invitation to design a home that reflects who you are, within a community that supports how you want to live. With homesites starting in the upper $200,000, opportunities like this are rare.

Homeowners won’t just build a house; they’ll be joining a community where privacy and connection coexist.

Financing your home build should be a simple thing. Our Construction-toPermanent Loan allows you to fund the construction and payment of your home in a single loan, giving you one closing fee and a locked rate for your entire loan. We also offer a Blanket Loan that allows you to start building before your current home sells. Now you can focus on building the home you’ve always wanted.

Dreaming of building your custom barndominium? Whether you’re using post frame, steel frame, or stick built construction, our Barndo Loan Program is designed specifically for Barndo-style homes. Our loan solutions can help you pay off existing land loans, build your barndo from foundation to finish, and even save money on the build cost by acting as your own general contractor.*

Hundreds of REALTORS® from around the Kansas City region recently gathered at the Loews Kansas City Hotel to witness the announcement of the 2025 KCRAR award winners as well as the installation of the 2026 KCRAR President, David Nichols.

LOCAL REALTORS® NAME WINNERS OF INDUSTRY ACHIEVEMENT AWARDS AND INSTALL NEW LEADERSHIP

The 2025 Good Neighbor Community Service Award was awarded to Micheala Miller, Compass Realty Group, for her work founding and running Strawberry Week Society, a nonprofit organization addressing period poverty in Kansas and Missouri. The organization has distributed over 1 million period products to the community since its foundation.

The 2025 Industry Partner of the Year Award was presented to Matthew Emerick, Home Warranty, Inc. Emerick demonstrates support for the real estate industry through volunteer service on the YPN Committee, sponsorship, community service, and education initiatives, including co-presenting a Latte & Learn session on homeowner warranty for KCRAR members.

The 2025 Newcomer of the Year Award was presented to Arabie Conner, Weichert, Realtors, Welch & Co. This award is given to a KCRAR member who has been licensed for 18 months or less based on ethics, cooperation, and professional development, among other criteria. In her short time as an agent, Conner has demonstrated enthusiasm and a dedication to growth and service.

The 2025 Salesperson of the Year Award was presented to Daniel Hartman, Show-Me Real Estate. Hartman is a Director on the

KCRAR Board as well as a volunteer on multiple KCRAR committees, including the REALTOR® Party Advisory Group, the Advocacy Committee and more. He is also a REALTORS® Political Action Committee (RPAC) Major Investor.

The 2025 REALTOR® of the Year Award was presented to Michele DuPont, Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Kansas City Homes. In 2025, DuPont served as both Chair of the KCRAR Forms Committee and Vice Chair of the KCRAR YPN Committee. She is a Director on the KCRAR Board and a managing broker of her office.

“I can’t think of anyone who exemplifies faithfulness to the highest ethical and moral conduct of a REALTOR® more than Michele DuPont,” said Christian Barnes, President & CEO of Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Kansas City Homes. “Michele distinguishes herself through the manner in which she leads: with heart and a passion to elevate others.”

Also at the event, the 2026 KCRAR President, David Nichols, was installed by 2001 KCRAR President, T. David Rogers. From the podium, Nichols shared his vision for the year ahead, committing to transparency, communication and accountability.

“Organized real estate matters. Private property rights matter. Small business ownership matters,” Nichols said from the stage. “A strong, ethical, professional real estate industry is the foundation of healthy communities — the same communities where we work, and where we live.”

Roger brings unmatched expertise in new homes. Early in his career, he partnered with a builder on a small development and never looked back. Multiple builders have trusted him for decades, and he’s helped countless buyers find a brand-new home that fits.

At ReeceNichols, Roger has an in-house legal team that is only a phone call away. Whether he needs complex guidance or just has a quick question, he and his team have access whenever they need it.

“The resources are there.” Follow

From his first days at ReeceNichols, Roger found seasoned leaders who invested in him, and that commitment has never changed. “They teach you the right way to sell real estate.” His trust in the leadership has kept him with the market leader for nearly three decades. “If I need help, I know I’ve got it.”
