Renowned family-owned builder introduces a new standard of villa living in Shawnee

A new standard of villa living has arrived in a prime Shawnee location just east of Interstate 435.

Family-owned Dusty Rhodes Homes brings three generations of home-building experience to The Enclave of Mill Creek, an inviting boutique community of just 30 paired villas tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac off Midland Dr.

Debi Weaver markets The Enclave of Mill Creek for ReeceNichols Real Estate and said the community fills what had become a significant gap in well-constructed, serviced homes that allow for a lock-and-leave lifestyle.

“Previously we didn’t have a community like this,” Weaver said. “And we take care of the building, the lawn, and the snow, so residents get more maintenance for a reasonable monthly fee.”

Giving residents more value for their new home investment is a recurring theme throughout the Mill Creek Enclave, and it starts with the community builder, a name synonymous in the greater Kansas City market with quality construction, attention to detail and exemplary customer service.

“Working with Dusty Rhodes Homes is like working with no other builder,” said Weaver. “Buyers enjoy a fully personalized, high-end experience without having to pay millions.”

Homes in the Mill Creek Enclave are priced at $538,000, an affordable price that becomes even more impressive as buyers absorb the luxurious finishes and thoughtful details found in each home.

“The Dusty Rhodes Homes team are wonderful people who care about the client,” said Weaver.

Two floor plans are available in the community: the 2,561-square-foot Bristol and the 2,498-square-foot Avalon. Both floor plans prioritize both functionality and accessibility with features such as two main floor bedrooms, spacious kitchens, and a covered patio located just off the owner’s bedroom.

Buyers can work with the team at Dusty Rhodes Homes to customize a floor plan to suit their particular needs, such as converting the main floor office space into an additional bedroom or exploring optional lower level finishes. All homes in the Mill Creek Enclave come with the company’s unmatched bumper-to-bumper warranty, giving buyers even more confidence in the quality and longevity of their matched villa.

With only 30 homes in the community, buyers are encouraged to act quickly to secure their spot in the Mill Creek Enclave. Immediate occupancy opportunities are available as the community’s two current model homes are for sale, including a four-bedroom, four-bath Bristol home at 7208 Allman Dr. that offers a lower level game room, coffee bar with refrigerator, drinks cabinets, custom cabinets, quartz and granite countertops, a Designer Series trim package, and an owner’s suite with a vaulted ceiling, walk-in shower, and dual vanities.

Also available is a second home model, a four-bedroom, four-bathroom Avalon floor plan at 7204 Allman Dr. Updated interior features include a lower-level exercise room, media room, and dry bar with front beverage refrigerator, lighting and upgraded plumbing and designer finishes. The fourth bedroom also includes a private bathroom.

In addition, a four-story building will be completed in April. This multi-family concept combines four coupled villas separated by the builder’s proven silent wall system to minimize noise transfer and give residents that coveted and welcome feeling of privacy.

Outside of the Mill Creek Enclave, residents are minutes away from an array of Shawnee shopping, dining, entertainment, and recreational activities, including biking, swimming, disc golf, camping, hiking, and more available at the Shawnee Mission Park.

Proximity to Interstate 435 also provides residents with convenient access to points of interest throughout the Kansas City area, from downtown Kansas City to the new Kansas City International Airport terminal, which will open later this month. Weaver said whether residents are buying into the community to downsize or as a second residence to be close to family, friends and a city they love, homeowners all benefit from the thoughtful vision behind the community.

“The Mill Creek Enclave gives people a beautifully constructed place to land with the comfort of living their lives in other places as well,” said Weaver.

Stop by the community from noon to 5pm, Saturday and Sunday, to tour the model homes, experience the quality construction firsthand, and explore the floor plans and customization options. For more information, including a photo gallery, visit EnclaveofMillCreek.com.
