A new phase is underway at Legacy Wood, offering 54 new home sites, along with the completion of a remarkable swimming pool complex. Located in eastern Lee's Summit on Langsford Road and adjacent to the 700-acre Legacy Park on Blackwell Parkway, Legacy Wood is 133 acres of rolling meadows being designed into beautiful new home sites. Legacy Wood is a community that will emphasize the true tradition of family.

"Legacy Wood sits in a true retreat-like setting," said Kathy Wood, who markets the neighborhood with Brian Wood. "It is secluded from and not connected to any other communities and is surrounded by beautiful trees in a quiet location. Other nearby communities offer larger homes in a higher price category. But we chose to build homes for those looking for those same amenities but with a less square footage. Many of those purchasing properties in Legacy Wood have children. However, the wonderful sizes of our homes and more upscale amenities are attracting buyers who want to scale down their lives now that they are empty-nesters or they have retired."

Legacy Wood offers a wide range of choices for the new home buyer. Designed to maintain a quality controlled and orderly construction area, it also means a variety of inventory. Home buyers can choose from "ready to move in" or build to their own specifications. Buyers can choose from the exclusive list of quality homebuilders currently building in Legacy Wood, or bring their own builder with approval by the design board.

All homes feature no less than 50% stucco on the front and 30-year composite roofs. Many also feature granite counters, sprinkler systems, walk-in pantries, fireplaces, three-car garages, vaulted ceilings and crown molding. Homes in Legacy Wood are priced from the $250's - $400's.

The state-of-the art community pool complex is now completed and ready to open for summer. Designed with families in mind, Wood Family Development incorporated elements for all ages. The complex includes the pool, large enough for a competitive swim team, along with a "kiddie area" featuring a zero depth entry, interactive bubbler water feature and a large mushroom umbrella. A large patio area and cabana are also a focal point for family and community get-togethers.

One of the most appealing amenities for Legacy Wood is its proximity to the nearby Legacy Park and Community Center. The 700-acre park has wildlife trails, playgrounds, soccer fields, baseball diamonds, picnic shelters and a lake. It also offers a public pool and fun zone, basketball courts, racquetball, dodge ball, a full service gym, and a number of activities throughout the year.

"It is the premiere park and recreation area in Lee's Summit and Legacy Wood runs along the south side," Kathy Wood said. "When we open our next phase, we will have lots available adjacent to the park."

Legacy Wood recently added another entrance into the community off of Blackwell Parkway. This third and final entrance provides residents quick access to Legacy Park and Community Center and north bound destinations.

Children of Legacy Wood attend Mason Elementary, Campbell Middle and Lee's Summit North High schools in the award-winning Lee's Summit R-7 School District.

Model homes are open daily at 11:00 am. To visit Legacy Wood, take I-470/Missouri 291 to Colbern Rd., east to Blackwell Parkway, south to Langsford, then east on Langsford Rd. to the community entrance. For more information, please call 816.554.8881, or visit www.Legacy-Wood.com.
