Head to southern Overland Park and, amid picturesque, rolling terrain that’s reminiscent of Polo Fields’ namesake, you’ll find a community that makes a lasting impression on prospective homeowners and current residents alike.
Located at 165th Street and Quivira Road, The Bluff at The Polo Fields is the highly anticipated final phase of an exceptional community strategically located on some of the most beautiful land in Johnson County. 22 homesites have been carefully carved from heavily wooded terrain creating a secluded retreat that takes advantage of this unique property. As a result of the commitment to land preservation and creative design, homes will be built on estate- sized lots averaging over a 1/2 of an acre that will create a private, nature
friendly environment. For prospective homebuyers, that means a chance to build their custom dream home on a truly unique homesite surrounded by natural beauty that has become increasingly rare throughout the fast-growing Kansas City metropolitan area.
NEW, RARE OPPORTUNITY FOR WOODED LOTS IN BLUE VALLEY
The central focus on nature doesn’t end with community’s homesites. Protected greenspace can be found throughout the community as well as being adjacent to wooded parkland with access to the Coffee Creek Streamway Trail system. Paved trails wind throughout Coffee Creek offering views of wildlife and greenspace along the way.
The community’s prime location in the
heart of southern Overland Park is ideal for a variety of homeowners, including families who covet an opportunity to send their students to schools in the awardwinning Blue Valley School District. The Bluff is just beginning to take shape and for prospective buyers searching for a rare opportunity to combine the conveniences of suburban living with the beauty of nature, now is the ideal time to explore possibilities that await at Polo Fields. The Developer has release the Lots for reservation and because the community is in early stages of development, builders can work with buyers to accommodate a longer buying and building process, giving new residents ample time to create their Polo Fields dream home. Yet because the Bluff only offers 22 heavily wooded, estate-sized homesites, they’re expected to sell quickly—and that means interested buyers should act soon to secure their place in this truly remarkable neighborhood.

Sundance Ridge Offers Unparalleled Amenities, New Homes, and the Best Schools
When the team at Rodrock Development crafted Sundance Ridge, the goal was to make the community nothing short of exceptional: diverse floor plans; the most popular amenities; the state’s most coveted school district. What resulted is everything the team hoped for and more, making Sundance Ridge the most distinctive neighborhood in Johnson County.
The community encompasses in excess of 500 acres and comprises three neighborhoods—Big Sky, Red Fox Run, and Archers Landing— which are carved out of breathtaking terrain. Yet it’s minutes from shopping, entertainment, and restaurants.
The crown jewel in its list of extraordinary amenities is a multimillion-dollar clubhouse. The main floor feels like a fine hotel lobby, complete with a marble-topped wet bar and 585-square-foot deck overlooking the resort-style pool below. The lower-level, 716-squarefoot fitness area is outfitted with treadmills, Peloton bikes, elliptical machines, weights, and more.
In addition to a fantastic playground, another unique offering is Sundance Ridge’s multiple pocket parks—little treasures of green space intended to create quiet respites throughout the community. Additional amenities will include a fully equipped indoor gymnasium, pickleball courts, bocce-ball court, and more.
And importantly for discerning families, Sundance Ridge is in the award-winning Blue Valley School District, with a future state-of-theart elementary school approved for the neighborhood. For more information call 913-441-4111, email SundanceRidge@rodrock.com or visit rodrock.com/communities/overland-park-ks/sundance-ridge.
