Classic midcentury homes in Colonial Village
Many homes in Colonial Village have some years to them, with build times typically dating back to the mid-20th century, though the rare spare lot has been used for custom contemporary homes. There isn’t a significant deviation of architectural styles – here, mixed-material ranch homes with brightly painted doors and the quintessential Cape Cod are the most common. Wide sidewalks line the blocks, and residents walk beneath the tree-lined streets, heading to catch a bus or off to pick up something from the pharmacy. Though close to downtown Overland Park, Colonial Village has a secluded feel, as most of its composition is just residential properties. Single-family homes sell for a median of $320,000, with older two-bedrooms starting at $200,000 and restored, larger vintage homes spiking to over $350,000.
