The Spruce, to be built by Shepard Homes, is an approximately 1,600 square foot, three-bedroom, two-bathroom Ranch floor plan with an unfinished basement for future growth. The home sits on an expansive 1.38-acre wooded lot, offering spectacular views.

Regency II, to be built by JS Robinson Fine Homes, is a 1.5-story plan sitting on a 5+ acre parcel. There is over 2,000 square feet of space on the main level, including a lavish master suite with a massive walk-in closet. The upper-level features three bedrooms, all with full bathrooms, a loft perfect for an office and/or library, and a media/family room. The lower level has a fifth bedroom, a full bathroom, a family room, wet bar, and a patio looking out over the acreage.

These spec homes are in the early stages, so the builders are open to changing the floor plan if a buyer has a specific need or style they desire.

“These examples showcase the various floor plans and designs available for homeowners to build at The Groves,” said Debbie Fleet, who markets the property with Ljubica Basic for Weichert REALTORS? Welch & Company . “We have had many individuals seeking a home and property that offers a secluded escape while still being near the amenities of the big city, and they are discovering it here at The Groves.”

Fleet shared, “We’re excited to invite prospective buyers to explore an incredible opportunity to build their dream home in our amazing community. With lots permit ready, now is the perfect time to visit and secure their place in this vibrant neighborhood.”

The development is named in honor of the legendary Junius George Groves, a prominent figure in Kansas history. Groves was born into slavery in Kentucky in 1859. He moved to the present-day Edwardsville area in 1878 as an Exoduster, the name given to African Americans who were part of the first major migration to Kansas from states situated along the Mississippi River.

Groves became known as “The Potato King of the World” for his wildly successful and innovative potato growth methods that eventually led him to become one of the wealthiest black Americans of the 19th and early 20th centuries. His agricultural empire and the land around it laid the foundation for what was called the community of Groves Center.
