Community Features & Amenities

Award-Winning Schools

Copper Springs III is part of Gardner-Edgerton USD 231, which is known for solid academic performance, community involvement, and a growing, well-resourced district. For homes in Copper Springs III, the top assigned schools are Gardner Elementary (Pre-K through 4th grade) for elementary, Wheatridge Middle School (5-8) for middle, and Gardner-Edgerton High School (9-12) for high school. These schools are fairly close by (within 2 miles in many cases), and while Wheatridge Middle tends to score modestly on some rating scales, families in the neighborhood generally appreciate the proximity, school culture, and district support. (From listings in the subdivision and school assignment info.)

Transportation & Accessibility

Copper Springs III balances elegance with convenience. The subdivision is inside the Gardner city limits, and provides relatively easy access to major roads via 161st Terrace, University Drive, and nearby Moonlight Road. Heat is on benefits here: drive times to employment hubs in Gardner, Overland Park, or Kansas City are doable and improved by ongoing infrastructure. The HOA plan includes streets and features designed for modern home living (like pre-wiring, integrated appliances) which suggests a focus on good build quality. However, public transit is limited: most residents rely on cars, with express and regional bus/park & ride options being modest, more useful for commuting rather than frequent errands

Shopping & Daily Essentials

In Copper Springs III, access to daily essentials is solid. Nearby shopping centers in Gardner offer groceries, pharmacies, and service-oriented retail within a short drive. For more specialty retail, big-box stores, or major shopping malls, one typically drives into Outer Johnson County suburbs like Olathe and Overland Park. HOA and subdivision design keep some conveniences close (e.g. gas, convenience stores), but wider selection requires a bit of travel. The trade-off: greater comfort and design in the homes, at the cost of slightly fewer amenities literally on the block. The home listings show quality upgrades and finishes, which implies upper-end builder standards, helping support value and desirability.

Healthcare & Services

Copper Springs III residents have access to local primary care, urgent care, and routine medical and dental services in and around Gardner. While the subdivision itself doesn’t yet host a major medical center, there are larger clinics and hospitals within reasonable drive, particularly in Johnson County suburbs. Also, the demographic and price point of the homes indicate that many buyers expect and demand good service access, which tends to push for improved infrastructure. The HOA structure helps support community standards, suggesting maintenance and service expectations will be uphel

Parks & Recreation

This neighborhood offers upscale home features complemented by HOA-provided amenities and nearby recreational opportunities. Within Copper Springs III you will find a heated pool with slide and splash zone, which gives families options for water recreation without leaving the subdivision. Large lot sizes, green space setbacks, well-appointed designs (e.g. landscaped yards, possibly sidewalks), and nearby parks managed by Gardner’s Parks & Recreation Department add to outdoor living. Trails, shelters, playgrounds, and parks are part of the larger Gardner community, so residents enjoy both neighborhood and city amenities

Family-Friendly Community

Copper Springs III is clearly aimed at buyers wanting comfort, modernity, and low maintenance. Homes are upgraded with things like integrated appliances, LED lighting, pre-wiring, and design touches (vaulted ceilings, matte-black fixtures) which reduce immediate maintenance. The HOA adds amenities (pool, splash zones) that benefit children and families. Lots are fairly spacious; privacy and neighborhood aesthetic are priorities. Schools are nearby; safe streets and quality build mean many families feel confident and settled here. Combined with reasonable home prices in the area, this makes Copper Springs III especially attractive for growing families or those seeking quality without excessive upkeep.

Dining & Entertainment

Copper Springs III leans toward quiet elegance rather than nightlife. Dining options near the neighborhood are mostly family-friendly and casual: local restaurants, cafes, take-out, etc. For more variety—steak, international, or upscale experiences—residents usually drive to larger commercial or mixed-use areas in Gardner or nearby cities. Entertainment (movies, larger shopping centers, big-venue events) also requires driving, but again, the subdivision’s design and amenities create a comfortable basis for entertaining at home (pool, fire-pit yard features, porch & patio usage)

Preferred Vendor List

Copper Springs III residents benefit from builder-established relationships with quality local contractors and service providers who understand the community’s construction standards and modern home maintenance requirements for new construction properties.
