Modest homes surrounded by Overland Park amenities
Arrowhead Trails attracts buyers looking for a smaller footprint near the coveted amenities of Overland Park. “Many of the reasons people choose to move to Overland Park correlate with the city’s awards and recognition,” says Meg Ralph, communications and media manager for the Overland Park city manager’s office. In 2023, lifestyle website Livability named the city the No. 2 best place to live in the Midwest. “Overland Park is consistently recognized as one of the happiest, healthiest and safest cities in which to live.” Due to its age and smaller housing stock, Arrowhead Trails offers a more affordable entry point into the highly rated schools, well-kept parks and shopping and dining spread of Overland Park. Events in downtown Overland Park are within 2 miles, and commuters appreciate the mere 10-mile drive to downtown Kansas City.

Nearby Antioch Park is a city-wide destination
“Overland Park offers recreational amenities for nearly every interest type,” Ralph says. “The City operates dozens of parks with various amenities, including fishing lakes, playgrounds, walking trails, athletic fields and more.” Residents of Arrowhead Trails have Antioch Park in their backyard, which can feel like several parks in one. Antioch Park is the most visited park in the city, and has foundational amenities like a playground and courts for basketball and tennis. However, many people seek out the park’s more unusual features, such as the two fishing ponds and the play village modeled like a Wild West town.
Milburn Country Club borders the neighborhood, though interested members should expect a waitlist. The golf course ranks in the top 10 Kansas courses, according to Golf Digest.

An older housing stock in Arrowhead Trails
The neighborhood’s position near the historic core of Overland Park means that houses are on the smaller side, typically with two or three bedrooms. Buyers will find a preponderance of ranch-style homes, split-levels and minimal traditional builds dating back to the 1930s through the 1950s. Some break the mold parallel to Milburn Country Club, where ranch homes are interrupted by Colonial Revivals and Craftsman bungalows. Many homes come with small garages used for storage, and residents park their cars on paved driveways sometimes cast in the shade of a mature oak. Prices typically range between $200,000 and $350,000, though inventory is limited.
