The median sale closed at 101.0% of asking — above list. 86% closed at or above the original list price, which is the better measure of how much room a buyer actually has.

What this means if you are buying in Heather Ridge Southspecific to this neighborhood
The city and the school district do not match: this is an Olathe address attending Spring Hill schools. That is the first thing to verify against the specific parcel with the district, and it also means buyers searching by Olathe schools will not surface this subdivision — which affects both how you find it and how it competes at resale.
What to check in homes of this agerecent stock
With a median year built of 2024, most homes here are recent stock. None of the following says anything about a specific house — they are the questions worth asking of any home of this age.
- Homes this new are generally still on their original systems, which is an advantage now and a cluster of replacements later.
- Where the neighborhood is still building out, check what remains to be built nearby and what the builder controls.
What sold, in more detailsizes, bedroom mix and timing
Of the 29 homes sold, 1 were 3-bed, 22 were 4-bed, 6 were 5-bed.
Above-grade size ranged from about 1,894 to 2,604 sq ft across the middle 80% of sales, so the median alone understates how much variation there is.
Closings cluster in August, February and June, with 66% of the year's sales closing between April and September. Because closing typically follows the contract by a month or more, listing activity runs earlier than that.
