Fairway offers vibrant vibes, a large golf scene and local businesses
For its location within Johnson County, which is known for being well-situated within the Kansas City metropolitan area, Fairway is blooming with new residents and developments. “People move here because they would rather spend their time with their friends and family than on the highway,” says Realtor Cathy Maxwell of ReeceNichols Real Estate. “It’s close to downtown, and you can walk to The Shops at Prairie Village and restaurants.” Maxwell grew up nearby and describes Fairway’s identity as both “quirky and upscale.” With its mix of mom-and-pop shops and access to several high-end country clubs, it makes sense. When asked what she loves about the area, she says it's "the convenience, ease of shopping and meeting with friends for a quick drink."
Residents in Fairway enjoy morning walks on the quiet neighborhood streets.

Walkable shopping and dining at Prairie Village and Johnson Drive
The Shops at Prairie Village, which Maxwell mentions is within walking distance of homes, is a retail hub for Kansas City businesses. Two beloved spots are The Little House, which has been selling children’s clothing for 50 years, and Hen House, a grocery store with a neighborly vibe. Aside from fresh food and packaged goods, Hen House also serves ready-made comfort food dinners for nights you don’t feel like cooking. Maxwell also recommends dining at French Market while you're there, "It's kind of an upscale grab-and-go place where you can also get a drink." In addition to The Shops at Prairie Village, Fairway is also within walking distance of Johnson Drive. Head there when you want to grab a bite at Snack Shack, known for its diner-style décor. Along the drive you’ll also find a Pilates studio, hair salon and a dance academy for kids.
The shops along Johnson Drive are one of a kind mom-and-pop shops.

Most properties settle on modest lawn sizes, tucked away comfortably from the road and next door neighbors. The streets in Fairway are known for their mature trees that shade residences and offer privacy. In fact, Fairway is sometimes called “The City of Trees.” Lawns are neatly manicured and people are often out walking with their family, friends and dogs on the sidewalks.

Fairway’s green space includes historic golf clubs and scenic parks
Much of the green space in Fairway is reserved for golf courses. Among them is Kansas City Country Club which — founded in 1896, it's the oldest one west of the Mississippi. Despite this, there are several parks to choose from nearby, including the 44-acre Antioch Park with its two fishing lakes, rose garden, miles of hiking trails, sports fields and playgrounds. The lakes are lined with benches and one contains a central fountain, offering a lovely ambiance for reading and catching up with friends.
Kids love climbing around the little houses at Fairway Park.
Enjoy a walk in the rose garden at Antioch Park any time of year.
