PRIME DEVELOPMENT SERENITY UNVEILED: CANYON CREEK FOREST

LUXURY IN LENEXA

Discover Canyon Creek Forest this fall, where crisp autumn days provide the perfect backdrop for one of the area’s most exciting new communities. Tucked within the prestigious Canyon Creek Development, east of 99th Street and Canyon Creek Boulevard, Canyon Creek Forest is now open and already capturing the attention of discerning homebuyers. Visitors can stroll through beautifully furnished model homes, each one thoughtfully designed to highlight not only exceptional craftsmanship and modern elegance, but also the warmth and comfort that make a house truly feel like home.

This season is an ideal time to secure your place in this sought-after neighborhood. Canyon Creek Forest has partnered with some of the region’s most respected builders—including Pauli Homes, Roeser Homes, JFE Construction, Hilmann Builders, and Crown Builders. These names are synonymous with superior quality, innovative floor plans, and the kind of meticulous attention to detail that turns a vision into reality. Demand has been strong, and lots are selling quickly, which makes it important for buyers to take advantage of the opportunity while it lasts.

For those ready to make the move right away, Canyon Creek Forest offers a selection of movein-ready homes as well as inventory homes that are available for customization. Buyers can enjoy the convenience of a finished home or choose to tailor a new build to their own style and preferences. Community representative Debbie Sinclair notes that the model row is one

of the finest in the area, designed to inspire and excite future homeowners. “The community is truly remarkable, and we’re thrilled to showcase such an impressive group of models,” she shares. “Each home features open-concept layouts ideal for entertaining, expansive windows that bring the outdoors in, and kitchens designed for both function and beauty, complete with butler’s pantries, stylish finishes, and vibrant décor.”

Homes in Canyon Creek Forest range from 2,850 to 3,450 square feet, with pricing starting in the low $700,000s. These residences balance generous living spaces with manageable upkeep, offering just the right combination of luxury and practicality. Many buyers are drawn to the community because they have enjoyed the spaciousness of large homes in the past, but are now seeking a lifestyle that provides the same level of sophistication without the burden of high maintenance.

A key advantage of Canyon Creek Forest is its low-maintenance living. With a monthly fee of just $195, residents benefit from lawn and landscape care, snow removal, and maintenance of common areas. This thoughtful approach allows homeowners to spend less time on chores and more time enjoying the things that matter most,

DIRECTIONS:

whether it’s hosting family gatherings, entertaining friends, or simply relaxing and taking in the beauty of the changing seasons.

The fall months are an especially wonderful time to visit Canyon Creek Forest. The vibrant colors of autumn leaves frame the streets and walking paths, adding natural beauty to the community’s already inviting atmosphere. Touring the model homes now gives potential buyers the chance to imagine how their own holidays and family traditions could unfold in such a setting. From cozy evenings by the fire to festive gatherings in open, light-filled living spaces, it is easy to picture the possibilities.

Canyon Creek Forest offers more than just homes—it provides an elevated lifestyle. The combination of respected builders, thoughtful design, and a community environment that values convenience and quality create a unique opportunity for those seeking a new place to call home. With strong sales momentum and limited availability, now is the time to explore everything this neighborhood has to offer.

Take a leisurely drive this fall, explore the model row, and experience firsthand the comfort, style, and sense of community that make Canyon Creek Forest such a remarkable place to live.

PARADE

THE DEFINITIVE

BLUEPRINT

OF EXCELLENCE IN KANSAS CITY REAL ES TAT E

Tears of Joy

Colleen isn’t in real estate for recognition. She’s in it to do right by people. When a seller in Prairie Village faced a lowball offer, Colleen urged her to hold off. The result? The home sold for more than double that first bid. “She was bawling while signing the contract.”

Forged in Fire

Our toughest chapters can become our greatest strengths. After surviving cancer and being told she’d never advance in her corporate career, Colleen chose a different path. That decision brought her to ReeceNichols, where she discovered not just a career, but a calling.

Stronger Together

Where Heart Meets Home

Through ReeceNichols’ Gold Key Project, Colleen gives back to local families at Ronald McDonald House. It’s a cause that’s touched her heart and her clients’ hearts.“If I can help give back to someone who needs it a little more than I do, that makes me really happy.”

Follow the Leader

At ReeceNichols, Colleen has a team of legal experts, marketing pros, and office specialists behind her. She doesn’t have to do it all on her own, which means her hospitality stays with her clients, where it matters most. “I don’t have to worry about anything.”

Colleen built her business in a culture where agents step up for each other, even when they don’t have to. From top producers to brand-new agents, she’s found people willing to share systems and answer questions. They’re all invested in each other’s success. “I don’t think there’s anything that compares to ReeceNichols.”
