Blue SpringsNew Home Communities

New home communities in Blue Springs are gaining momentum. Summit Homes offers new construction homes on the south side of town off 7 Highway and Colbern Road, but still in the award-winning Lee's Summit school district. First incorporated in 1880, Blue Springs was one of the first settlements in the area, pre-dating Kansas City, Missouri. It was chosen as a settling place due to the abundance of clean water from a spring of the Little Blue River, which is where the name Blue Springs came from. Today Blue Springs offers families a progressive and growing community with an affordable housing market and the award-winning Blue Springs School District. Located 20 miles east of downtown KC along I-70, Blue Springs offers an easy commute to the metro with a quiet, suburban setting and an abundance of dining, shopping and recreational amenities. New construction homes by Summit offer housing in the best part of town, with quick access to all that Blue Springs has to offer.
