(913) 543-3332Oak Run — Olathe, KS
Three MLS subdivisions in one established west Olathe neighborhood — Community, Estates and Meadows — with modest dues and a simple amenity package.
Oak Run is an established neighborhood in west Olathe 66061 that built out gradually from 2005. Heartland MLS files it as three separate subdivisions — Oak Run Community, Oak Run Estates and Oak Run Meadows — so searching the name alone shows you only part of what is for sale. Dues are modest and the amenity package is deliberately simple.
Why “Oak Run” is three different searches
Oak Run is an established neighborhood in west Olathe 66061, and Heartland MLS files it as three separate subdivisions: Oak Run Community, Oak Run Estates and Oak Run Meadows. Search “Oak Run” on most sites and you will see one of the three.
This is a different kind of community from the newer Rodrock master plans on the south side of Olathe. Oak Run built out gradually from 2005, the dues are modest, and the amenity package is deliberately simple — a neighborhood pool rather than a clubhouse campus. What separates the three sections is size and price, not rules or amenities.
What is the same across all three: Olathe School District (USD 233), with Clearwater Creek Elementary and Oregon Trail Middle serving most addresses, and an annual HOA assessment in the $440–$460 range. Recorded amenities are the swimming pool.

Medians from 22 Oak Run listings in Heartland MLS, May–August 2026. Estates and Meadows are small sections and trade rarely — those medians rest on a handful of sales, so treat them as directional. Ask us for the full history before you price anything off them.
What defines each section
Oak Run Community
The main body of the neighborhood and by far the most active — 17 of the 22 recent listings. It has the longest build window of the three, from 2005 through 2025, so inventory ranges from twenty-year-old resale to near-new. Median price sits around $535,000 on roughly 2,500 finished square feet and 9,843 square foot lots. Johnnie Adams Homes appears most often on the builder records. A portion of the section is assigned to Cedar Creek Elementary rather than Clearwater Creek.
Oak Run Estates Largest homes
The step-up section: median finished square footage around 3,367 on 12,217 square foot lots — roughly 35% more house and 24% more lot than Oak Run Community — at a median around $560,000, only about $25,000 more. Build years run 2005 to 2018. It is a small section and it rarely comes up, which is the main obstacle to buying here. Dues run $460 a year, marginally above the rest of Oak Run.
Oak Run Meadows Entry point
The smallest and newest-built of the three, constructed between 2010 and 2018. Median finished square footage is about 2,157 on 9,403 square foot lots, at a median around $477,500 — the lowest entry point into Oak Run. It is also the thinnest section by volume, so if this is your target we set an alert rather than wait for something to appear on a portal.
Amenities and HOA
Oak Run keeps it simple: the recorded HOA amenity across all three sections is the swimming pool, and dues run roughly $440 to $460 a year. That is a fraction of what the amenity-heavy master plans on the south side of Olathe assess, and for some buyers that trade — lower carrying cost, fewer facilities — is the entire reason to look here.
Oak Run does not publish its covenants, budgets or management contact publicly — unusually little is available online for a neighborhood this size. We pull the CC&Rs and current financials directly from the association and get them to you inside your inspection period, on any Oak Run address.
Schools
All three Oak Run sections are in the Olathe School District (USD 233). Clearwater Creek Elementary and Oregon Trail Middle serve most addresses, with part of Oak Run Community assigned to Cedar Creek Elementary. High school records split between Olathe West and Olathe North. Boundaries are set by the district and can be redrawn — we confirm the current assignment on the specific address before you write an offer.
What it actually costs to own here
Oak Run is one of the cheaper established neighborhoods in Olathe to hold, and the reason is visible in the chart: HOA dues are a rounding error next to the tax bill. Below is average monthly carrying cost by section, before any mortgage payment.
No special assessments. None of the Oak Run listings in our sample carries a special assessment — unlike several of the newer master-planned communities on the south side of Olathe, where they are routine and can add $400 to $1,600 a year. Combined with dues around $37 a month, that makes Oak Run one of the lowest-carry established neighborhoods in the city.
Effective tax rates run 1.12% (Meadows) to 1.39% (Community) of transaction price, against an Olathe city-wide average of 1.22%. Oak Run Estates, at 1.20%, sits just under the city average while delivering the largest homes in the neighborhood.
A note on method: these are averages of MLS-reported tax and HOA figures over a four-month window, not a tax quote. Oak Run Estates and Oak Run Meadows rest on two to three transactions each and should be treated as directional. Kansas property tax is reassessed annually and your actual bill depends on the county appraiser’s valuation for that parcel. We pull the current parcel record for any address you are serious about.
