Briarcliff blends nature with commuter convenience
Briarcliff sits among the heavily forested Northland suburbs of Kansas City and stands out among its neighbors due to its proximity to major highways, a wealth of parks, stylish homes and attractive home prices. Jennifer Hunt, a Realtor with Platinum Realty LLC, describes the neighborhood as "nestled in the trees, yet closely located to major highways, only minutes to downtown, or up to the airport.” This neighborhood is, indeed, nestled in the trees: its streetscapes are marked by grassy front yards, lush vegetation, trees along every road and diversity in housing styles.
Missouri homes offer a variety of housing styles
While the eastern half of the neighborhood shares common architectural styles with its neighbors – rows of comfortable ranches, some of them raised above their garages to accommodate the hilly terrain – the western half of Briarcliff has a modern, suburban feel. These homes vary in style from eclectic contemporary homes to reimagined Tudor residences and charming Colonials. The wide streets are flanked by sidewalks, making for a pleasant stroll through the neighborhood’s quiet streets and past scores of unique homes.
One of these homes, the Frank Bott House, was built by the legendary architect Frank Lloyd Wright, and this home is open for private tours on appointment, giving visitors and locals alike the opportunity to view a masterpiece of modern architecture from within. Single-family homes typically cost between $260,000 and $480,000, though larger, custom designs can sell for more than $1 million.
Parks and trails connect Briarcliff to nature and downtown views
Briarcliff stands out among Kansas City’s dozens of neighborhoods due to its wealth of parkland, putting residents in touch with the beauty of western Missouri’s natural features. Briarcliff Park, at the heart of the neighborhood, includes tree-shaded walking trails, wide-open grasslands for field sports or picnics and access to paved trails and bridges at the Briarcliff Greenway. This trek through verdant nature takes visitors to the Waterworks Park, a hilly green area with a commanding view of the downtown Kansas City skyline across the Missouri River, a shelter for terrapins creatively named “Terrapin Station” and a disc golf course. This fast-growing sport can be enjoyed in an 18-basket course, and players weave through the treelines of this park to test their frisbee skills.
Upscale dining and grocery options near the Village at Briarcliff
Briarcliff is located adjacent to the Village at Briarcliff, a small shopping plaza with amenities such as a GreenAcres Market grocery store, a gym, and a few local restaurants. A local favorite is the Trezo Mare Restaurant & Lounge, a fine dining Italian eatery with a stone exterior reminiscent of the Tuscan countryside, and gourmet dishes which take Kansas Citians from the heart of America to the heart of Italy. Piropos Restaurant, an Argentinian steakhouse, offers a similar extravagant experience within a white-tablecloth setting, while also including views of Kansas City from its hilltop location.
