Commercial destinations and suburbia south of Overland Park
Located just 2 miles south of downtown Overland Park, the Glenwood Business District has a handful of residential subdivisions scattered around four shopping centers at the intersection of Metcalf Avenue and West 95th Street. “The biggest draw is just everything is just so convenient,” says Karen Kiloh, a Platinum Realty Realtor who has sold the Overland Park market for 32 years. “It might not be walkable, but you have everything you need from shopping, restaurants, and entertainment within three to four minutes.” The district puts prospective buyers near multiple parks and in the highly-rated Shawnee School District. Being close to downtown Overland Park means locals can attend various community events throughout the year.

Townhouses, ranch-styles and split-levels
Away from the hustle and bustle of the nearby shopping centers, subdivisions are under the shade of old-growth trees. Along winding neighborhood roads, brick ranch styles and split levels are perched on thin, rectangular lots. Streets are lined with sidewalks that allow people to walk to nearby shopping. While houses are close together, properties have front and back yard space. Multiple apartment and townhouse complexes supplement the home inventory in the area. Prices range from $165,000 to $788,000, but buyers can expect a three-bedroom split-level for around $300,000. “In my 32 years, this is the best I have ever seen the market. Even with the high interest rates, people are still getting multiple offers and properties are moving,” Kiloh says.
