Live MLS snapshot as of September 22, 2026. Nine of the thirteen active homes are priced above $1M; the $13.5M top is a Loch Lloyd estate with a Stilwell address.

Stilwell is not a city. It is the unincorporated southeast corner of Johnson County below Overland Park and Leawood, roughly 175th Street down to the county line and Metcalf east to State Line, with a 66085 zip code and Blue Valley schools on every parcel. That combination, acreage plus the county's most sought-after district plus twenty minutes to Town Center, is why it has become the estate market for buyers who have outgrown a suburban lot.

Right now there are 13 homes for sale in Stilwell with a median list price of about $1.25M and a spread from $450,000 to $13.5M. The median home listed today was built in 2007, which tells you the market has two eras: the 1950s to 1990s farmhouses and ranches on original acreage, and the custom estates that have gone up since the early 2000s in River Ridge Farms, Mission Creek Estates and along Galloway Drive on the Kansas side of Loch Lloyd.

It is also the most active custom-build corridor in the county for the top of the market. Willis Custom Homes, Starr Homes and Walker Custom Homes all have current or recent Artisan Home Tour houses on Stilwell addresses, and new construction on Galloway Drive is listing above $4M. If you want land, privacy, a specific builder and Blue Valley schools in one address, this is where those four things overlap.

Acreage, estates, and the Kansas side of Loch Lloyd

Most Stilwell listings sit on one to ten acres. The established neighborhoods, River Ridge Farms, River Ridge Farms West, Mission Creek Estates and Blue Valley Riding, are large-lot subdivisions of 3,500 to 6,000-square-foot homes from the late 1990s through the 2010s, typically $750K to $1.5M today. Around them are the true acreage properties: original farmhouses, horse setups and one-off custom homes on unplatted ground, where price depends more on the land than the house.

The Loch Lloyd lots inside Kansas are the top tier. The gated Village of Loch Lloyd is incorporated in Cass County, Missouri, but a section of the development along Galloway Drive carries Stilwell, Kansas addresses, which puts those homes in Blue Valley schools and under Kansas property tax instead of Missouri. Current listings there run from $4M to $13.5M and are almost all new or recent custom construction. My Loch Lloyd guide explains the state-line detail in full.

Two things change in due diligence out here. Most Stilwell properties are on well and septic rather than city water and sewer, so the inspection list is different and longer. And with acreage, the survey, easements, flood plain and any agricultural use matter as much as the house. I walk clients through both in my well-and-septic and flood-plain guides before we ever write.

Where to look

Loch Lloyd (Kansas side)

Galloway Drive estates inside the gates with Stilwell addresses and Blue Valley schools; $4M and up, mostly new custom builds.

River Ridge Farms & River Ridge Farms West

Established large-lot custom homes from the 2000s; the heart of the $750K–$1.5M market.

Mission Creek Estates

Newer estates near 180th Street; 2010s construction on generous lots.

Blue Valley Riding / Mission Acres

Older acreage homes along Riggs and Mission Road, often the best land value in Stilwell.

Aubry and the county-line acreage

Original farmhouses and unplatted ground toward 183rd Street; buy for the land, plan to build or renovate.

Sundance Ridge

The master-planned alternative just north at 175th; new construction without acreage.

Schools, commute and the practical stuff

  • Every active Stilwell listing is in the Blue Valley School District (USD 229); most addresses feed Stilwell Elementary, Aubry Bend Middle and Blue Valley High School. Confirm the feeder for any specific parcel.
  • Zip code 66085. Stilwell is unincorporated Johnson County, so services come from the county and the Stilwell Fire District rather than a city.
  • About 20 minutes to Town Center Plaza and Leawood via Mission Road or Metcalf; 30 to 35 minutes to downtown Kansas City via US-69.
  • Expect well and septic on most properties; budget for a septic inspection, water test and well flow test in addition to a standard inspection.
  • New construction here is custom: Willis, Starr, Walker and others are building on Galloway Drive and on private lots. Register me before you visit a builder.

Questions buyers ask

How much do homes cost in Stilwell, KS?

As of late September 2026 the median list price is about $1.25M, with 13 active homes from $450,000 to $13.5M. Established large-lot subdivisions like River Ridge Farms run roughly $750K to $1.5M; the Kansas side of Loch Lloyd along Galloway Drive lists from $4M up.

What school district is Stilwell, KS in?

Blue Valley School District (USD 229) covers all of Stilwell. Most addresses feed Stilwell Elementary, Aubry Bend Middle School and Blue Valley High School. Note that the Missouri side of Loch Lloyd, across the state line, is in the Belton School District, which is why the Kansas-side lots carry a premium.

Is Stilwell part of Overland Park?

No. Stilwell is unincorporated Johnson County with its own 66085 zip code, south of Overland Park and Leawood. Some listings near 175th Street are marketed as "south Overland Park," and Overland Park has annexed parts of the area over the years, so always check the actual city and tax jurisdiction on the parcel.

Do Stilwell homes have city water and sewer?

Most do not. The majority of Stilwell properties are on private wells and septic systems, which changes the inspection list and the ongoing maintenance. Newer subdivisions closer to Overland Park may have rural water district service. I confirm utilities on every Stilwell property before a client writes an offer.
