About Oak Country Estates
Oak Country Estates at a closer look
Why buyers look here
Oak Country Estates is an acreage neighborhood on the west side of De Soto, Kansas (66018), in western Johnson County along the K-10 corridor. Homes line Oak Country Lane and sit around Oak Country Golf Course, an 18-hole course that opened in 1989. Unlike De Soto’s newer production neighborhoods, it is a large-lot, low-density community of custom homes on roughly one to two-plus acres, served by De Soto USD 232.
- Acreage, commuter-close — minutes to K-10, with room that in-town lots can’t offer; verified sold homes here sit on about 1 to 2+ acres (one 2021 sale was on 2 acres / 87,124 sq ft).
- No HOA on record — 0 of 38 home sales reported association dues. We can pull the parcel’s deed/covenant record on request to confirm any private restrictions.
- Set around a golf course rather than backing to a highway or retail; some homes back to the fairways.
Homes, builders & pricing
- Custom, not a single builder’s product — homes were added over about three decades; MLS year-builts span 1984–2016, so styles and sizes vary lot to lot.
- Home sizes (verified sold): roughly 1,825–4,781 finished sq ft (median ~3,240; median above-grade ~2,306) — larger than De Soto’s production homes.
- Lot sizes: median ~1.5 acres (acreage confirmed, 1–2+ acres).
- Builders (thin 2007–2016 records): Conley Custom Homes, Larry Hewitt. Custom, not a single-builder product.
- Price signal: median $482,500 (38 home sales, 2016–2026; range $175K–$825K); recent median $686,000 (9 sales, 2023–2026 — small sample, directional only). Lot size and finished space drive price here far more than in production neighborhoods. Ask us for today’s actives and comps. (11 land/lot sales were excluded from these home figures.)
Setting & amenities
- Oak Country Golf Course (opened 1989; 18 holes) is the defining feature — homes are set along and around it, and some back directly to the fairways. Course membership/public-access terms vary; confirm current status directly with the course.
- Mature trees and open acreage; rolling terrain typical of west De Soto.
- Everyday services in downtown De Soto and along the K-10 corridor; regional shopping in nearby Olathe, Shawnee and Lenexa.
- De Soto was platted in 1857 and incorporated in 1897, on the Kansas River in Johnson (and Leavenworth) County. It now sits at the center of major regional growth — the roughly $4B Panasonic EV-battery plant and the Astra Enterprise Park redevelopment of the former Sunflower Army Ammunition Plant.
Schools (De Soto USD 232)
Served by De Soto USD 232. Address-level assignments on sales here have been Starside Elementary School (De Soto’s elementary boundaries split between Starside and Mize), Lexington Trails Middle School and De Soto High School. Boundaries change; confirm the exact assignment for a specific address with the district before relying on it.
Taxes & sales history
What it costs to own in Oak Country Estates
The typical Oak Country Estates home that sold in 2026 (year to date) carried a property tax bill of about $7,598 a year, or 1.13% of its sale price. Below: every year of real bills and prices since 2017.
With no HOA on record (0 of 38 sales reported dues), the recurring carry here is almost entirely property tax, and it scales with home value. Across 38 De Soto MLS home sales (2016–2026), the median recorded annual tax was about $6,131 on a median price of $482,500 — an effective rate of ~1.33%. Recent sales (2023–2026, 9 homes — a small, directional sample) ran higher, around a $686,000 median. Special assessments are rare — only 1 of 38 sales carried one.
Figures are 10-year MLS medians (homes n=38; tax n=34), not a tax quote. The $686K/$825K bars apply the ~1.33% effective rate to the recent-median and top-of-range prices. Kansas reassesses annually and the actual bill follows the county appraiser’s valuation. 11 land/lot sales were excluded from the home figures; no HOA appears on record.
