The story of North Hamptonfrom 1990

Kansas City accepted the first North Hampton plat by ordinance 65285 on 22 March 1990; Clay County recorded it on 13 June that year. source

The second plat followed in July 1991, the third in September 1993 and the fourth in September 1994. The fifth and sixth were both accepted in the autumn of 1996 but were not recorded until June and November 1997; the seventh cleared the city in September 2000, and a replat of a single lot in the seventh plat followed in November 2002. source

Clay County’s parcel file returns 505 parcels whose legal description names North Hampton. source

Every North Hampton parcel is coded to Kansas City in the county record, but the subdivision lies inside the Liberty 53 school district rather than the North Kansas City district that covers most Clay County parcels with Kansas City addresses. source

What the houses are likemedian built 1998

The median home sold here was built in 1998. Most of what sells was built between 1991 and 2002. 89% of sales included finished basement space beyond the above-grade footprint — which matters here, because square footage quoted above grade can understate a house considerably.

By property type: Single Family (28).

What this means if you are buying in North Hamptonspecific to this neighborhood

Two things to settle in writing here. First, the school assignment: the mailing address is Kansas City, the district is Liberty, and that pairing is unusual enough in the Northland that buyers routinely get it wrong — confirm it at the specific address, not by ZIP. Second, the phase: the first plat is 1990 ground and the seventh is 2000, so a decade of building code separates the two ends of this subdivision. The plat name is on the legal description; read it before you treat two North Hampton sales as comparable.

What to check in homes of this agelate-century stock

With a median year built of 1998, most homes here are late-century stock. None of the following says anything about a specific house — they are the questions worth asking of any home of this age.

  • Polybutylene supply piping was used in homes built roughly 1978-1995 and is worth identifying before closing; it affects insurability in some cases.
  • First-generation vinyl windows and original roofs from this period are typically at or past replacement age.
What sold, in more detailsizes, bedroom mix and timing

Of the 28 homes sold, 21 were 3-bed, 7 were 4-bed.

Above-grade size ranged from about 988 to 1,737 sq ft across the middle 80% of sales, so the median alone understates how much variation there is.

Closings cluster in July, June and March, with 64% 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.
