About This Property

Thoughtfully renovated and architect-designed in a maintenance-free community! This Lenexa townhome pairs refined finishes with exceptionally efficient use of space. The seller, a detail-oriented architect, reimagined the home through a comprehensive 2015 to 2016 renovation, creating a polished, highly functional home that lives larger than its footprint. Vaulted ceilings bring an airy sense of scale and grandness, while intentional storage, custom casework, and cohesive material selections make every space work beautifully. Highlights include tile flooring throughout the main living areas, white oak stair treads, updated trim, smooth ceilings, designer lighting, and a striking kitchen with custom soft-close white oak and matte white cabinetry, Cambria quartz countertops, integrated pantry and trash storage, and a GE Slate appliance suite. Bathrooms feature custom floating white oak vanities, magnetic latches, backlit mirrors, and an updated tile shower surround. The finished lower level adds flexible office or recreation space with vinyl plank flooring, concealed light cove lighting, and a generously sized storage area. Custom birch closet casework further maximizes organization. Additional improvements include a rear deck, rebuilt fence in 2018, all new HVAC in 2020, and HOA exterior repainting in 2024. Enjoy the added privacy of an extra wide rear greenspace, neighborhood trails, and multiple pools. HOA services include lawn care, snow removal, trash, and recycling, with HyVee, local restaurants, Lenexa City Center, and highway access all nearby. The maintenance-free community means less time on upkeep and more time enjoying your home and neighborhood. The community amenities include: 4 pools (1 for adults only), 2 tennis/pickleball courts, indoor & outdoor basketball courts, 3 clubhouses, a library, a park, playground, and walking trails!

Lenexa captures the essence of modern Kansas living — where outdoor enthusiasts and families find their perfect balance of adventure and convenience. This isn't your typical suburb; it's a carefully planned community that celebrates both nature and progress, with over 80 miles of scenic trails winding through neighborhoods where new construction meets established charm.

The crown jewel is Lenexa City Center, a vibrant hub that brings together shopping, dining, and year-round community events in a walkable, modern setting. Add in the legendary Lenexa Farmers Market, excellent Shawnee Mission schools, and easy access to both Kansas City and Johnson County employment centers, and you've got a recipe for the kind of lifestyle that keeps families rooted for generations.

Whether you're drawn by the extensive trail system perfect for morning runs, the Rodrock neighborhoods with their elegant new homes, or simply the genuine sense of community that permeates everything from the Spinach Festival to weekend farmers market visits, Lenexa delivers authentic suburban excellence with a distinctly outdoorsy Kansas flair.

Lenexa's strategic location in southwest Johnson County provides excellent connectivity throughout the Kansas City metro. I-35 and US-69 offer direct routes to downtown Kansas City and KCI Airport, while 87th Street and Renner Boulevard connect quickly to Overland Park and Leawood.
